What element is being oxidized in the following redox reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
gregori [183]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C is the element thats has been oxidized.

Explanation:

MnO₄⁻ (aq)  +  H₂C₂O₄ (aq)  →  Mn²⁺ (aq)  +  CO₂(g)

This is a reaction where the manganese from the permanganate, it's reduced to Mn²⁺.

In the oxalic acid, this are the oxidation states:

H: +1

C: +3

O: -2

In the product side, in CO₂ the oxidation states are:

C: +4

O: -2

Carbon from the oxalate has increased the oxidation state, so it has been oxidized.

Umnica [9.8K]

Nuclear fusion involves the combination of two light nuclei to form a heavier nucleus with emission of energy.

A nuclear reaction equation is a representation of the change that takes place as one nucleus is converted to another. A nuclear transformation could be any of the following;

  • Nuclear fission
  • Nuclear fusion
  • Transmutation

We can know that a nuclear fusion is taking place when two nuclei come together to form a larger nucleus and emit energy. I would identify a nuclear fusion when;

  • Two light atom combine to give a larger nucleus
  • Tremendous energy is produced

In your own words, describe how the energy of a pendulum is changed as it moves through one cycle of its motion. Pls help online
ruslelena [56]

In a perfect world without air resistance, the top of the swing would have the most potential energy, but the least amount of kinetic energy. As the pendulum falls down, it gains more kinetic energy as it travels faster due to gravitational acceleration but loses more potential energy as it loses height. The total amount of energy in the system (the sum of kinetic and potential energy) stays the same.

A student mixes a solution containing 10.0 g bacl2 (m = 208.2) with a solution containing 10.0 g na2so4 (m = 142.1) and obtains
professor190 [17]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
Na₂SO₄ + BaCl₂ --> BaSO₄ + 2NaCl
Na₂SO₄ reacts with BaCl₂ in the molar ratio 1:1
Number of Na₂SO₄ moles - 10.0 g / 142.1 g/mol = 0.0704 mol
Number of BaCl₂ moles - 10.0 g / 208.2 g/mol = 0.0480 mol
this means that 0.0480 mol of each reactant is used up, BaCl₂ is the limiting reactant and Na₂SO₄ has been provided in excess. 
stoichiometry of BaCl₂ to BaSO₄ is 1:1
number of BaSO₄ moles formed - 0.0480 mol
Mass of BaSO₄ - 0.0480 mol x 233.2 g/mol = 11.2 g
theoretical yield is 11.2 g but the actual yield is 12.0 g
the actual product maybe more than the theoretical yield of the product as the measured mass of the actual yield might contain impurities. 
percent yield - 12.0 g/ 11.2 g x 100% = 107% 
this is due to impurities present in the product or product could be wet.
