Answer: Oxidation and Reduction Reactions.

Explanation: Redox Reaction is a type of reaction in which the oxidation reaction as well as the reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is the one in which one species loses electrons and appears as cation and reduction reaction is the reaction in which the other species accept electrons.

The one which loses electrons is known as Oxidizing Agent as it helps the other specie to accept electrons and the one which accepts electrons is known as Reducing Agent .

Every redox reaction consists of two parts, the oxidation and the reduction. Each one separately is called a half - reaction. During the redox reaction there is a transfer of electrons from the substance being oxidized to the substance being reduced. In a voltaic cell, these reactions happen in separate vessels.

Answer:

Ammonia is the richest source of nitrogen on a mass percentage basis because it has 82.35% of nitrogen by mass.

Explanation:

Percentage of element in compound :

$=\frac{\text{number of atoms}\times text{Atomic mass}}{\text{molar mas of compound}}\times 100$

(a) Urea, $(NH_2)_2CO$

Molar mass of urea = 60 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 2

$N\%=\frac{2\times 14 g/mol}{60 g/mol}\times 100=46.67\%$

(b) Ammonium nitrate, $NH_4NO_3$

Molar mass of ammonium nitrate = 80 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 2

$N\%=\frac{2\times 14 g/mol}{80 g/mol}\times 100=35.00\%$

(c) Nitric oxide, NO

Molar mass of nitric oxide = 30 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 1

$N\%=\frac{1\times 14 g/mol}{30 g/mol}\times 100=46.67\%$

(d) Ammonia, $NH_3$

Molar mass of ammona = 17 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 1

$N\%=\frac{1\times 14 g/mol}{17 g/mol}\times 100=82.35\%$

Ammonia is the richest source of nitrogen on a mass percentage basis because it has 82.35% of nitrogen by mass.

The low-resolution mass spectrum of an unknown analgesic X had a molecular ion of 151. Possible molecular formulas include C7H5N

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The molecular formula of X is C8H9NO2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

exact mass of 151.0640

Molar mass of C = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of H = 1.00783 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 15.9949 g/mol

Molar mass of N = 14.0031 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate molar mass of C7H5NO3

7*12 + 5*1.00783 + 14.0031 + 3*15.9949 = 151.02695 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate molar mass of C8H9NO2

8*12 + 9*1.00783 + 14.0031 + 2*15.9949 = 151.06337 g/mol

Step 4: Calculate molar mass of C10H17N

10*12 + 17*1.00783 + 14.0031 = 151.13621 g/mol

The molecular formula of X is C8H9NO2

Hey there!

Static electricity is a missing charge. When positive ions are formed (where an electron is missing), this imbalance is called static electricity.
