g 2BrO3- + 5SnO22-+ H2O5SnO32- + Br2+ 2OH- In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from to . How many electron
Archy [21]

Answer:

In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from 2+ to 4+.

10 moles of electrons are transferred in the reaction

Explanation:

Redox reaction is:

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻

SnO₂²⁻ → SnO₃²⁻

Tin changes the oxidation state from +2 to +4. It has increased it so this is the oxidation from the redox (it released 2 e⁻). We are in basic medium, so we add water in the side of the reaction where we have the highest amount of oxygen. We have 2 O on left side and 3 O on right side so we add 1 water on the right and we complete with OH⁻ in the opposite side to balance the H.  

SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O <u>Oxidation</u>

BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂

First of all, we have unbalance the bromine, so we add 2 on the BrO₃⁻. We have 6 O in left side and there are no O on the right, so we add 6 H₂O on the left. To balance the H, we must complete with 12OH⁻. Bromate reduces to bromine at ground state, so it gained 5e⁻. We have 2 atoms of Br, so finally it gaines 10 e⁻.

6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂ + 12OH⁻ <u>Reduction</u>

In order to balance the main reaction and balance the electrons we multiply  (x5) the oxidation and (x1) the reduciton

(SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O) . 5

(6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂ + 12OH⁻) . 1

5SnO₂²⁻ + 10OH⁻ + 6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ → Br₂ + 12OH⁻ + 5SnO₃²⁻ + 10e⁻ + 5H₂O

We can cancel the e⁻ and we substract:

12OH⁻ - 10OH⁻ = 2OH⁻ (on the right side)

6H₂O - 5H₂O = H₂O (on the left side)

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻

Use mathematics to prove that the 5.50 grams of salicylic acid (C7H6O3) used in this experiment is equal to 0.04 mol.
g100num [7]

Answer:

Please find the answer to the question below

Explanation:

In chemistry, the following mathematical formula is used to calculate the number of moles contained by a substance:

mole = mass of substance (g)/molar mass of substance (g/mol)

Molar mass of salicylic acid (C7H6O3) = 12(7) + 1(6) + 16(3)

= 84 + 6 + 48

= 138g/mol

Mass = 5.50grams

mole = 5.5/138

mole = 0.039

Approximately, the number of moles of 5.5grams of salicylic acid is 0.04moles. This is in accordance with the mole value (0.04) given in this question.
