You have to calculate the oxidation estates of the atoms in each compound.

I will start with K2Cr2O7 because I believe that Cr is the best candidate to reduce its oxidation number in 3 units.

In K2Cr2O7:

- K has oxidation state of 1+, then K2 has a charge of 2* (1+) = 2+.

- O has oxidation state of 2*, then O7 has a charge of 7* (2-) = 14-.

That makes that Cr2 has charge of 14 - 2 = +12, so each Cr has +12/2 = +6 oxidation state.

In Cr2O3:

- O has oxidation state of 2-, then O3 has charge 3 * (2-) = - 6

- Then, Cr2 has charge 6+, and each Cr has charge 6+ / 2 = 3+.

So, we have seen that Cr reduced its oxidation state in 3 units, from 6+ to 3+.

Answer: Cr has a change in oxidation number of - 3.

A sample of nitrogen occupies 10.0 liters at 25°C what would be the new volume at 20°C? 7.9 L Ob 9.8 L 10.2 L 10.6 L
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

  9.4 liter

Explanation:

1) Data:

V₁ = 10.0 L

T₁ = 25°C = 25 + 273.15 K = 298.15 K

 P₁ = 98.7 Kpa

 T₂ = 20°C = 20 + 273.15 K = 293.15 K

  P₂ = 102.7 KPa

  V₂ = ?

2) Formula:

Used combined law of gases:

  PV / T = constant

  P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

3) Solution:

Solve the equation for V₂:

  V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)

Substitute and compuite:

V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)

V₂ = 98.7 KPa × 10.0 L × 293.15 K / (102.7 KPa × 298.15 K)

V₂ =  9.4 liter ← answer

Nitric acid can be produced by the reaction of gaseous nitrogen dioxide with water. 3 no2(g) + h2o(ℓ) −→ 2 hno3(ℓ) + no(g) if 85
Naya [18.7K]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
3NO₂ + H₂O --> 2HNO₃ + NO
stoichiometry of NO₂ to NO is 3:1
molar volume is where 1 mol of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L
volume of gas is directly proportional to number of moles of gas.
therefore stoichiometry can be applied for volume as well.
volume ratio of NO₂ to NO is 3:1
volume of NO₂ reacted - 854 L
therefore volume of NO formed - 854 L /3 = 285 L
volume of NO formed - 285 L
