What occurs when Cr^3+ ions are reduced to Cr^2+ ions?

1 answer:

7 0

D:

When electrons are gained, the charge of the atom decreases.

When you are given an atom with a charge, the oxidation of that atom is the charge. So by going from a Cr^3+ (Oxidation Number = 3) to a Cr^2+ (Oxidation Number = 2), the Oxidation Number thus decreases.

0.5 moles of any gas is at STP, it will occupy how many LITERS of volume?

never [62]

Answer: 500L

Explanation:

No of moles= volume× molarity/1000

No of moles =0.5moles

Volume=?

Molarity of a gas at stp = 1M

Stp means standard temperature and pressure

No of moles = volume ×molarity/1000

Substitute the values

0.5=volume×1/1000

Cross multiply

Volume = 1000×0.5

Volume = 500L

The volume is 500L

At 1000 K, a sample of pure NO2 gas decomposes. 2 NO2(g) equilibrium reaction arrow 2 NO(g) + O2(g) The equilibrium constant KP

kirill115 [55]

<u>Answer:</u> The pressure of NO and $NO_2$ in the mixture is 0.58 atm and 0.024 atm respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Equilibrium partial pressure of $O_2$ = 0.29 atm

For the given chemical equation:

$2NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO(g)+O_2(g)$

Initial: a

At eqllm: a-2x 2x x

Calculating for the value of 'x'

$\Rightarrow x=0.29$

Equilibrium partial pressure of NO = 2x = 2(0.29) = 0.58 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of $NO_2$ = a - 2x = a - 2(0.29) = a - 0.58

The expression of $K_p$ for above equation follows:

$K_p=\frac{p_{O_2}\times (p_{NO})^2}{(p_{NO_2})^2}$

We are given:

$K_p=158$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$158=\frac{0.29\times (0.58)^2}{(a-0.58)^2}\\\\a=0.555,0.604$

Neglecting the value of a = 0.555 because it cannot be less than the equilibrium concentration.

So, $a=0.604$

Equilibrium partial pressure of $NO_2$ = (a - 0.58) = (0.604 - 0.58) = 0.024 atm

Hence, the pressure of NO and $NO_2$ in the mixture is 0.58 atm and 0.024 atm respectively.

Hemoglobin has a much greater affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. which principle explains why a hyperbaric chamber (conta

babunello [35]

Hemoglobin has a much greater affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. In a hyperbaric chamber (containing high levels of oxygen) can treat carbon monoxide poisoning, by displacing carbon monoxide from Hemoglobin competitively.

Hemoglobin has a much greater affinity for carbon monoxide than oxygen. This is because, a coordinate bond is formed with Carbon monoxide and Haem structure of the hemoglobin.

Carbon monoxide with Hemoglobin is called as Carboxy haemoglobin.

Presence of oxygen displaces the Carbon monoxide with Hemoglobin that is formed due to poisoning.

Hyperbaric chamber is a chamber which contains pure oxygen in a chamber. The atmospheric pressure is kept about three to four times than the normal, such that the replacement of Carbon monoxide from Haem can occur as fast as possible since this reduces the half life of the Carboxy haemoglobin.

It is advisable not to treat Carbon monoxide poisoning yourself.

Hyperbaric oxygen is used to treat the following conditions as well:

Infections
Wounds
Air bubble is blood
