Answer:

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄ → Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized

<u>Answer:</u> The amount remained after 151 seconds are 0.041 moles

<u>Explanation:</u>

All the radioactive reactions follows first order kinetics.

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

$k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}$

where,

k = rate constant = $4.82\times 10^{-3}s^{-1}$

t = time taken for decay process = 151 sec

$[A_o]$ = initial amount of the reactant = 0.085 moles

[A] = amount left after decay process = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$4.82\times 10^{-3}=\frac{2.303}{151}\log\frac{0.085}{[A]}$

$[A]=0.041moles$

Hence, the amount remained after 151 seconds are 0.041 moles

Explanation:

Haptens are known as small molecules that help to stimulate the production of antibody molecules when attached with a large molecule known as a carrier molecule such as proteins.

Haptens are used to study the mechanism of inflammatory bowel disease to help induce the autoimmune type of responses and allergic contact dermatitis.
