What element is being oxidized in the following redox reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
DIA [1.3K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The element that has been oxidized is the N

Explanation:

Zn²⁺(aq) + NH₄⁺(aq) → Zn(s) + NO₃⁻(aq)

See all the oxidation states:

Zn²⁺  → acts with +2

In ammonia, H acts with +1 and N with -3

Zn(s), acts with 0. In all the elements in ground state, the oxidation state is 0.

Zn changed from 2+ to 0. The oxidation number, has decreased.

This element has been reduced.

NO₃⁻ (aq) it's a ion, from nitric acid.

N acts with +5

O acts with -2

The global charge is -1

The N, has increased the oxidation state, so this element is the one oxidized.

How much work (in J) is involved in a chemical reaction if the volume decreases from 4.35 to 1.20 L against a constant pressure
Marianna [84]

Answer:

W = -262 J.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, we can recall the definition of work in terms of constant pressure and variable volume as follows:

W=P(V_2-V_1)

So we plug in the given pressure and volumes to obtain:

W=0.822atm(1.20L-4.35L)\\\\W=-2.60atm*L

Now, we convert this number to J (Pa*m³) by using the shown below conversion factor:

W=-2.60atm*L*\frac{101325Pa}{1atm} *\frac{1m^3}{1000L}\\\\W=-262J

Regards!

The following diagrams represent mixtures of NO(g) and O2(g). These two substances react as follows: 2NO(g)+O2(g)→2NO2(g) It has
Alja [10]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question and an image is attached below.

The following diagrams represent mixtures of NO(g) and O₂(g). These two substances react as follows:

2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)

It has been determined experimentally that the rate is second order in NO and first order in O₂.

Based on this fact, which of the following mixtures will have the fastest initial rate?

The mixture (1). The mixture (2). The mixture (3).

Answer : The mixture 1 has the fastest initial rate.

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)

The rate law expression is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Now we have to determine the number of molecules of NO\text{ and }O_2

In mixture 1 : There are 5 NO and 4 O_2 molecules.

In mixture 2 : There are 7 NO and 2 O_2 molecules.

In mixture 3 : There are 3 NO and 5 O_2 molecules.

Now we have to determine the rate law expression for mixture 1, 2 and 3.

The rate law expression for mixture 1 is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Rate=k(5)^2\times (4)

Rate=k(100)

The rate law expression for mixture 2 is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Rate=k(7)^2\times (2)

Rate=k(98)

The rate law expression for mixture 3 is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Rate=k(3)^2\times (5)

Rate=k(45)

Hence, the mixture 1 has the fastest initial rate.
