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}

Investigate: Note the empty jars on the shelf that can be filled by using the slider. Set the amount to 2.000 moles of carbon (m
balandron [24]

Answer:

The molar mass of carbon

Explanation:

Before the mass (in grams) of two moles of carbon can be determined, <u>the molar mass of the element would be needed.</u>

<em>This is because the number of mole of an element is the ratio of its mass and the molar mass</em>. That is,

number of mole = mass/molar mass

Hence, the mass of elements can be obtained by making it the subject of the formular;

mass = number of mole x molar mass

<em>Therefore, the molar mass of carbon would be needed before the mass of 2 moles of the element can be determined.</em>

How many molecules (not moles of nh3 are produced from 5.01×10?4 g of h2?
Irina-Kira [14]
2,02g     -------    6,02×10²³
5,01×10⁴g  ---    x

x=\frac{5,01*10^{4}g*6,02*10^{23}}{2,02g}=14,93*10^{27}

N₂         +        3H₂       ⇒           2NH₃
1mol      :        3mol        :           2mol
                       18,06×10²³  :       12,04×10²³
                       14,93×10²⁷  :        y

y=\frac{14,93*10^{27}*12,04*10^{23}}{18,06*10^{23}}\approx9,95*10^{27}

Jack is playing with a Newton's cradle. As he lifts one ball to position A and drops it, it impacts the other balls at position
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Newton's Cradle is a neat way to demonstrate the principle of the CONSERVATION OF MOMENTUM.

What happens here is when the ball on one end of the cradle is swung and it hits the other balls that are motionless, or stationary, the momentum of the swinging ball is transferred to the next ball upon impact.

Momentum is not lost in this action, what happens when it hits the next ball, the momentum is transferred to the next one, and then the next, and the the next, till it reaches the last ball on the other end. Since nothing is next to the last ball, it pushes the ball upwards, which will swing down and repeat the process going the other way.

This also demonstrates the CONSERVATION OF ENERGY. As you will see, the energy continues to move through the other balls, passing it from one ball to the other, which keeps this constantly moving.
