A reducing agent is one which is oxidised in the reaction itself. When you take into account the oxidation numbers you will see that the Cl- ions are oxidised from an oxidation number of -1 to 0 in Cl2. Therefore Cl- ions are the reducing agent.
Answer:
6 half-lives are required for the concentration of reactant to decrease to 1.56% of its original value.
Explanation:
Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:
![[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_t%5D%3D%5BA_0%5De%5E%7B-kt%7D)
Where,
![[A_t]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_t%5D)
is the concentration at time t
![[A_0]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA_0%5D)
is the initial concentration
Given:
Concentration is decreased to 1.56 % which means that 0.0156 of is decomposed. So,
![\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%20%7B%5BA_t%5D%7D%7B%5BA_0%5D%7D)
= 0.0156
Thus,
![\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=e^{-k\times t}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%20%7B%5BA_t%5D%7D%7B%5BA_0%5D%7D%3De%5E%7B-k%5Ctimes%20t%7D)
kt = 4.1604
The expression for the half life is:-
Half life = 15.0 hours
Where, k is rate constant
So,
<u>6 half-lives are required for the concentration of reactant to decrease to 1.56% of its original value.</u>
Answer:
1.88 M
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mole of NaCl = 0.47 mole
Volume of solution = 0.25L
Molarity =?
Molarity is defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. It can represented mathematically as:
Molarity = mole /Volume
Using the above formula, the molarity of the salt water solution can be obtained as follow:
Molarity = 0.47/0.25
Molarity = 1.88 M
