In which system does a spontaneous redox reaction produce electrical energy?

1 answer:

3 0

Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
When we say that a redox reaction is spontaneous, this would mean that there is a formation of positive voltage <span>across the electrodes of a voltaic cell. Therefore, the system that this kind of reaction produces electrical energy is in a GALVANIC CELL. Hope this helps.</span>

Not only for plants, but also for every organism and every life form nitrogen is important because it poses as catalyst that supports different is chemical reactions of growth. N is filled with chlorophyll that actually gives you the answer on the question as chlorophyll allow plant to perform photosynthesis by absorbing energy from light that leads to the growth. So, it is important because it provides <span>photosynthesis.</span>

hydrogen decomposes quickly when exposed to light. the reaction for decomposing hydrogen peroxide is:

Svet_ta [14]

The decomposition reaction for hydrogen peroxide is given below:

2 $H_{2}$ $O_{2}$ → 2 $H_{2}$ O + $O_{2}$

This is a decomposition reaction.

Reactions in which a reactant breaks into two or more products are known as Decomposition reactions.

AB → A + B

here, AB represents the reactant that begins the reaction, and A and B represent the products of the reaction

The decomposition reaction of decomposing hydrogen peroxide is exothermic. When the hydrogen peroxide undergoes a decomposition reaction, heat is also released along with water and oxygen.

Hence the reaction for decomposing hydrogen peroxide is :

2 $H_{2}$ $O_{2}$ → 2 $H_{2}$ O + $O_{2}$

Explain transmethylation reaction of amino acids.

tester [92]

Answer:Transamination, a chemical reaction that transfers an amino group to a ketoacid to form new amino acids. This pathway is responsible for the deamination of most amino acids. This is one of the major degradation pathways which convert essential amino acids to non-essential amino acids (amino acids that can be synthesized de novo by the organism).

Balance each of the following redox reactions occurring in basic solution.MnO−4(aq)+Br−(aq)→MnO2(s)+BrO−3(aq)Express your answer

Ahat [919]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

$2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)$

Explanation :

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in basic solution are :

First we have to write into the two half-reactions.
Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.
Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.
If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the more number of oxygen are present.
If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydroxide ion $(OH^-)$ at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.
Now balance the charge.

The half reactions in the basic solution are :

Reduction : $MnO_4^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2(s)+4OH^-(aq)$ ......(1)

Oxidation : $Br^-(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+6e^-$ .......(2)

Now multiply the equation (1) by 2 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

The balanced chemical equation in a basic solution will be,

$2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)$
