Answer:

a. 3 Br₂(l) + 6 OH⁻(aq) → 5 Br⁻(aq) + BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3 H₂O

b. Br₂

c. Br₂

Explanation:

In order to balance a redox reaction, we use the ion-electron method.

Step 1: Identify both half-reactions.

Reduction: Br₂(l) → Br⁻(aq)

Oxidation: Br₂(l) → BrO₃⁻(aq)

Step 2: Perform the mass balance. This reaction takes place in basic medium, so we have to add OH⁻ and H₂O where appropriate.

0.5 Br₂(l) → Br⁻(aq)

6 OH⁻(aq) + 0.5 Br₂(l) → BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3 H₂O

Step 3: Perform the electrical balance adding electrons where appropriate.

1 e⁻ + 0.5 Br₂(l) → Br⁻(aq)

6 OH⁻(aq) + 0.5 Br₂(l) → BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3 H₂O + 5 e⁻

Step 4: Multiply both half-reactions by numbers that assure that the number of electrons gained and lost are the same.

5 × (1 e⁻ + 0.5 Br₂(l) → Br⁻(aq))

1 × (6 OH⁻(aq) + 0.5 Br₂(l) → BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3 H₂O + 5 e⁻)

Step 5: Add both half-reactions and simplify when appropriate.

5 e⁻ + 3 Br₂(l) + 6 OH⁻(aq) → 5 Br⁻(aq) + BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3 H₂O + 5 e⁻

3 Br₂(l) + 6 OH⁻(aq) → 5 Br⁻(aq) + BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3 H₂O

The species that is reduced is the oxidizing agent. Ther species that is oxidized is the reducing agent. In this case, Br₂ is both.

Answer:

the oxidizing agent is Br_{2} and the reducing agent is  Br_{2}

Explanation:

Generally, the reduction-oxidation reactions involve the transfer of electrons from one compound to another.  In the reduction reaction, there is a reduction in the oxidation number while in the oxidation reaction, there is an increase in the oxidation number.  Reducing agent loses electrons and its oxidation number increases while the oxidizing agent gains electrons and its oxidation number decreases.

The unbalanced chemical reaction is:

Br_{2(l)} → BrO^{-} _{3(aq)} + Br_{(aq)} ^{-}

For the oxidation reaction:

Br_{2} + 6H_{2}O → 2BrO^{-} _{3(aq)} + 12H^{+} + 10e^{-}

For the reduction reaction:

Br_{2(l)}  + 2e^{-} → 2Br^{-}

The next step is to make the number of electrons gained equal to the number of electrons lost:

Br_{2} + 6H_{2}O → 2BrO^{-} _{3(aq)} + 12H^{+} + 10e^{-}

5Br_{2(l)}  + 10e^{-} → 10Br^{-}

Then we add up the two equations:

3Br_{2(aq)}+3H_{2}O_{(l)}⇌  2BrO^{-} _{3(aq)} +5Br_{2(l)} +6H_{(aq)} ^{+}

Therefore, the oxidizing agent is Br_{2} and the reducing agent is  Br_{2}

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Box is made up of <em>copper</em>, because density is <em>8.96  g/cm³.</em>

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of box = 17.63 cm³

Mass of box = 158 g

Which metal box is this = ?

Solution:

First we will calculate the density of box then we will compare it with the density value of given metals.

d = m/v

d = 158 g/ 17.63 cm³

d = 8.96  g/cm³

The calculated density is similar to the given density value of copper thus box is made up of copper.

Answer:

Appearance. Pure rock salt is colorless. However, when found underground it is generally not completely pure, so may have yellow, red, gray or brown hues. It is either transparent or translucent and when you shine a light on it, its luster is vitreous, meaning it appears shiny and glassy.

Hydrolamine ,NH2OH , is a reducing agent found in some film developing solutions. How many hydrogen atoms are in 1.80moles of hy
kolezko [41]

Answer:

number of hydrogen atom in 1.8 mole of NH2OH = 9.8\times 10^{22}

Explanation:

percentage of hydrogen in NH2OH = mass of hydrogen / mass of whole molecule

                                                             =\frac{3\times 1}{14+3+16}\times 100

                                                             = 9.09 percentage

therefore number of moles in 1.8 moles of hydroxy amine = \frac{9.09}{100}\times 1.8

                                                                = .16 moles of hydrogen

number of hydrogen atom = (number of moles )×(avagadro number)

                                              = 9.8\times 10^{22} atoms of hydrogen
