The element that gains electrons, becomes reduced.
While the one which loses electrons, becomes oxidized.
In this equation,
CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻---- --> CH₂O + Cr³⁺.
By balancing the equation, we will get:
3CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 8H⁺ --> 3CH₂O + 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O
Here the oxidation state of Cr changes from +6 to +3 that is it is being reduced thus serving as a oxidizing agent while other element retain their charges.
Here Cr₂O₇²⁻ is reduced while CH₃OH is oxidized.
So Cr₂O₇²⁻ serves as a oxidizing agent, while CH₃OH serves as reducing agent .
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Organic compounds are chemical compounds which usually contains one or more atoms of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and sometimes nitrogen or sulphur. Carbon and hydrogen are the main element that is contained in most organic compounds.
Option A is wrong because calcium phosphate is not an organic compound, although all the other compounds in the option are organic compounds.
Option B is wrong because calcium chloride is not an organic compound
Option C is wrong also as calcium sulphate is not an organic compound
Option D is correct as all are organic compounds
Einstein’s Theory of Relativity was built on the research and ideas of other scientists. The Theory of Relativity proposes that the speed of light is aconstant. The statement that explains why this is considered to be a scientific theory is that the majority of the scientific community voted on this theory over other possible explanations.
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Convert the mass of water into number of moles</u>
- Molar mass of water: 18.015 g/mol
- Number of moles, n = mass in grams / molar mass
n = 255 g / 18.015 g/mol = 14.15 mol
<u>2) Use the formula E = n × ΔH vap</u>
This is, you have to multiply the molar ΔH vaporization by the number of moles to find the total energy to boil the given amount of water.
- E = 14.15 mol × 40,650 J/mol = 575,395.5 J
<u>3) Round to the correct number of significant figures.</u>
The mass of water is the measurement with the least number of significant figures (3), so you must report the answer with 3 significant figures,
<span>None. Since it is dominant, both would have to show it to pass in on.</span>
