Andrews [41]3 years ago
5 0
Sediment is solid material that is moved and deposited in a new location. Sediment can consist of rocks and minerals, as well as the remains of plants and animals. It can be as small as a grain of sand or as large as a boulder. Sediment moves from one place to another through the process of erosion.

Answer:

Based on Wikipedia it says, "Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind, gravity, or water flows carrying the particles in suspension."

If you are writing an answer for your teacher, just take the one from wikipedia and put it in your own words.

The chemical equation for a reaction between K2Cr2O7 and HCl is shown. K2Cr2O7 + 14HCl → 2CrCl3 + 2KCl + 3Cl2 + 7H2O
guapka [62]

<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxidizing agent is defined as the chemical reagent which helps the other chemical compound to get oxidized and itself gets reduced. The oxidation state for these species gets reduced because they are undergoing reduction reaction.

For the given chemical equation:

K_2Cr_2O_7+14HCl\rightarrow 2CrCl_3+2KCl+3Cl_2+7H_2O

Oxidation state of Chromium is getting reduced from +6 to +3 and oxidation state of chlorine getting increased from -1 to 0.

Hence, K_2Cr_2O_7 acts like and oxidizing agent because it is itself getting reduced to CrCl_3

Therefore, the correct answer is Option b.

What can be said of a closed system when an exothermic reaction proceeds in an aqueous solution?
lyudmila [28]
An exothermic reaction is a type of reaction that dissipates heat as the reaction proceeds. This would mean that in a closed system, when a reaction proceeds and is endothermic, the temperature of the solution  or the system would increase so as to maintain the equilibrium with the whole system.
