In the reaction of chlorine with calcium, explain which atom is oxidized.

Chemistry
1 answer:
romanna [79]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The atom is oxidized is Ca.

Explanation:

  • The oxidation-reduction reaction contains a reductant and an oxidant (oxidizing agent).
  • The oxidation process is the process in which electrons are lost and produce positively charged ions.
  • The reduction process is the process in which electrons is gained and negatively charge ions are produced.

  • In the reaction of chlorine with calcium:

<em>Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂,</em>

Ca loses 2 electrons and is oxidized to Ca²⁺. (Ca <em>→</em> Ca²⁺ + 2e).

Cl is gains 2 electrons in "Cl₂, oxidation state zero" and is reduced to Cl⁻. (Cl₂ + 2e <em>→</em> 2Cl⁻).

What two-step process separated the cans into aluminum, steel, and tin?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Magnetivity and melting point.

Explanation:

Aluminum, steel and tin cans can be separated by two step process of magnetisation and melting point, because the three cans have different magnetic properties.

Steel attract to magnet easily because of it's has magnetic properties and these separate steel from aluminum.

Neither steel and aluminum melted at 300°C but Tin melt at that temperature.

What is the volume of stank of nitrogen that contains 17 moles of nitrogen at 34 C under 12,000Pa?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

3626.76dm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of Nitrogen in tank = 17moles

Temperature of the gas = 34°C

Pressure on the gas = 12000Pa

Unkown:

Volume of the tank, V =?

Converting the parameters to workable units:

We take the temperature from °C to Kelvin

K = 273 +  °C  = 273 + 34 = 307k

Taking the pressure in Pa to atm:

101325Pa = 1atm

12000Pa = 0.118atm

Solution:

To solve this problem, we employ the use of the ideal gas equation. The ideal gas law combines three gas laws which are the Boyle's law, Charles's law and the Avogadro's law.

            It is expressed as PV = nRT

The unknown is the Volume and we make it the subject of the formula

             V = \frac{nRT}{P}

Where R is called the gas constant and it is given as 0.082atmdm³mol⁻¹K⁻¹

Therefore  V = \frac{17 x 0.082 x 307 }{0.118} = 3626.76dm³
