Alkaline solutions are basic so answer is C basic

An alkaline solution is also called a basic solution, and has pH > 7.
On the other hand, an acidic solution would have pH < 7. A neutral solution has pH = 7. The value of pH decreases as more hydrogen ions are present in the solution, so acids (which release hydrogen ions) have lower values of pH. Their opposites, bases, have higher pH levels.

What is the oxidizing agent in the reaction 2MnO4-(aq) 10I-(aq) 16H (aq) ---&gt; 2Mn2 (aq) 5I2(aq) 8H2O(l)
faltersainse [42]

Correct Question: what is the oxidizing agent in the reaction.

2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)

Answer: MnO4-is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

In the reaction 2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)

Oxidizing agent oxidizes other molecules while the themselves get reduced.

oxidizing agents give away Oxygen to other compounds.

MnO4-is the oxidizing agent because

On the reactants side

Oxidation number of Mn in 2MnO4- is +7

Oxidation number of Cl- is -1

On the products side

Oxidation number of Mn is +2

While oxidation number of Cl is zero

Therefore the oxidizing agent is 2MnO4 because is oxidizes Chlorine from -1 to 0 while itself got reduced from oxidation state of +7 to +2

Instead of 6 M NaOH being added to the solution, 6 M HCl is added. How will this affect the test for the presence of ammonium io
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Ammonia gas(an alkaline gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell) is not liberated when 6mole of HCl is added to the solution instead of 6mole of NaOH, to test for the presence of ammonium ion in the solution

Explanation:

As expected, when testing for ammonium ion in a solution (precisely ammonium salt solution), Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) is required as the test reagent.

When NaOH is added to the solution, A gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell is liberated.

This gas turn red litmus paper blue.

This liberated gas is an alkaline gas, which is confirmed as an ammonia gas(NH3).

If HCl is added instead of NaOH, the ammonia gas will not be liberated, which indicates that the test reagent used is wrong.

If you had continued following the water molecule in the Water Cycle Activity, what step do you predict would have occurred next
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:option D is the correct answer, precipitation and it is because water is being released from the cloud into the earth.

Explanation:

PRECIPITATION is the process by which water condenses in the atmosphere. Precipitation can occur in form of snow,fog, dew,rain etc.

Atmospheric water is found in clouds and water vapor. Gradually and systematically the entire atmosphere rotates around the planet. When weather is being formed one of the most common results is precipitation.

In the water molecule activity here, precipitation will occur because water is being released from the atmosphere into the earth.

Why does group 18 in the periodic table not form ions?
alukav5142 [94]
Lets take a moment to list all the characteristics of the group 18 (also known as noble gases and/or group 8) elements: 
- They have 8 valence electrons. 
- Don't need ANY more electrons because their octet is full (stable). 
- Are stable 
- Not reactive
- Known as the noble gases

Now.. lets take some time to think about why elements want to form ions: 

Elements form ions to either gain or lose valence electrons to the element they bond with. This helps them GAIN a full octet. What is a full octet, you may ask? An octet is when an element has all 8 valence electrons and is stable, making it nonreactive. 

Why would an element with a full octet want to bond? It already has a full octet, it does not need to bond. 

That, my fellow Brainly user, is why the noble gases do not need to bond. 

I really do hope this helps! Enjoy, and good luck on the studies.

What is the relationship between temperature and volume?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Charles's law states that the volume of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to its temperature on the kelvin scale when the pressure is held constant

The volume of a given gas sample is directly proportional to its absolute temperature at constant pressure (Charles's law). The volume of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when temperature is held constant (Boyle's law)

Explanation:

~Hope this helps
