How to solve #2, not sure if my work is correct

I'm looking at the barometer in my lab as I type this question. It says the pressure is 968 torr. What is this pressure expresse

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

1.27 atm.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Pressure (P) in torr = 968 torr

Pressure (P) in atm =...?

Thus, we can convert from torr to atm by doing the following:

Recall:

760 torr = 1 atm

Therefore,

968 torr = 968/760 = 1.27 atm

Therefore, 968 torr is equivalent to 1.27 atm.

The density of water is 1 g/cm3. brent used the following method to convert 1 g/cm3 to kg/m3.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

a) The wrong denominator for the equivalent fraction of kilograms to grams

b) The use of the scale factor of length rather than the scale factor of volume for the equivalent fraction of cubic centimeters to cubic meters

c) The arrival at the correct 1000 kg/m³ rather than 0.1 g/m³ based on the expression on the left of the equation

The density of water = 1 g/cm³

The given equation is presented as follows;

1 g/cm³ × 1 kg/(1000 kg) × 100 cm³/(1 m³) = 1000 kg/m³

The error in the conversion method are;

a) The conversion, 1 kg/(1,000 kg) has an error, the correct conversion is (1 kg)/1,000 g)

b) The volume conversion error, 100 cm³/(1 m³), the correct volume conversion is (100 cm)³/(1 m³) = 1,000,000 cm³/(1 m³)

c) The right of the equal to sign error; using the left side expression only, the (wrong) answer is 0.1 g/m³

The correct equation is presented as follows;

1 g/cm³ × 1 kg/(1000 g) × 1,000,000 cm³/(1 m³) = 1000 kg/m³

Answer:

Oxygen in hydrogen peroxide oxidizes from -1 to 0.

Explanation:

Oxidation is the loss of electrons. The specie which is oxidized has has elevation in its oxidation state as compared in the reactant and the products.

The given reaction is shown below as:

$5 H_2O_2_{(aq)} + 2 MnO_4^-_{(aq)} + 6 H^+_{(aq)}\rightarrow 2 Mn^{2+}_{(aq)} + 8 H_2O_{(l)} + 5 O_2_{(g)}$

Manganese in $MnO_4^-$ has oxidation state of +7

Manganese in $Mn^{2+}$ has an oxidation state of +2

It reduces from +7 to +2

Oxygen in hydrogen peroxide has an oxidation state of -1.

Oxygen in molecular oxygen has an oxidation of 0.

Thus, oxygen in hydrogen peroxide oxidizes from -1 to 0.
