<u>Answer:</u> The final equation has hydroxide ions which indicate that the reaction has occurred in a basic medium.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction take place simultaneously.
The oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species loses electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species increases.
A reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species gains electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species decreases.
The given redox reaction follows:
To balance the given redox reaction in basic medium, there are few steps to be followed:
- Writing the given oxidation and reduction half-reactions for the given equation with the correct number of electrons
Oxidation half-reaction: 
Reduction half-reaction: 
- Multiply each half-reaction by the correct number in order to balance charges for the two half-reactions
Oxidation half-reaction: ( × 3)
Reduction half-reaction: ( × 2)
The half-reactions now become:
Oxidation half-reaction: 
Reduction half-reaction: 
- Add the equations and simplify to get a balanced equation
Overall redox reaction: 
As we can see that in the overall redox reaction, hydroxide ions are released in the solution. Thus, making it a basic solution
The answer is 267.93 g
Molar mass of CaBr2 is the sum of atomic masses of Ca and Br:
Mr(CaBr2) = Ar(Ca) + 2Ar(Br)
Ar(Ca) = 40 g/mol
Ar(Br) = 79.9 g/mol
Mr(CaBr2) = 40 + 2 * 79.9 = 199.8 g/mol
The percentage of Br in CaBr2 is:
2Ar(Br) / Mr(CaBr2) * 100 = 2 * 79.9 / 199.8 * 100 = 79.98%
Now make a proportion:
x g in 79.98%
335 g in 100%
x : 79.98% = 335 g : 100%
x = 79.98% * 335 g : 100%
x = 267.93 g
Answer:
Explanation:
H3PO4(aq) + 3NaOH(aq) → Na3PO4(aq) + 3H2O(l)
mole of NaOH = 23.6 * 10 ⁻³L * 0.2M
= 0.00472mole
let x be the no of mole of H3PO4 required of 0.00472mole of NaOH
3 mole of NaOH required ------- 1 mole of H3PO4
0.00472mole of NaOH ----------x
cross multiply
3x = 0.0472
x = 0.00157mole
[H3PO4] = mole of H3PO4 / Vol. of H3PO4
= 0.00157mole / (10*10⁻³l)
= 0.157M
<h3>The concentration of unknown phosphoric acid is 0.157M</h3>
Answer:
185.05 g.
Explanation
Firstly, It is considered as a stichiometry problem.
From the balanced equation: 2LiCl → 2Li + Cl₂
It is clear that the stichiometry shows that 2.0 moles of LiCl is decomposed to give 2.0 moles of Li metal and 1.0 moles of Cl₂, which means that the molar ratio of LiCl : Li is (1.0 : 1.0) ratio.
We must convert the grams of Li metal (30.3 g) to moles (n = mass/atomic mass), atomic mass of Li = 6.941 g/mole.
n = (30.3 g) / (6.941 g/mole) = 4.365 moles.
Now, we can get the number of moles of LiCl that is needed to produce 4.365 moles of Li metal.
Using cross multiplication:
2.0 moles of LiCl → 2.0 moles of Li, from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
??? moles of LiCl → 4.365 moles of Li.
The number of moles of LiCl that will produce 4.365 moles of Li (30.3 g) is (2.0 x 4.365 / 2.0) = 4.365 moles.
Finally, we should convert the number of moles of LiCl into grams (n = mass/molar mass).
Molar mass of LiCl = 42.394 g/mole.
mass = n x molar mass = (4.365 x 42.394) = 185.05 g.
