The reducing agent would be the substance that is oxidized in the reaction or the one who loses electrons. From the reaction given, it would be KMnO4 that is the reducing agent. It loses electrons From (MnO4)2- to MnO2. Hope this answers the question.

?Al + ?H2SO4 → ?Al2(SO4)3 +3H2

AfilCa [17]

The answer is: 27 grams of aluminium.

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Al + 3H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂.

n(H₂) = 1.5 mol; amount of hydrogen.

Form chemical reaction: n(Al) : n(H₂) = 2 : 3.

n(Al) = 2 · 1.5 mol ÷ 3.

n(Al) = 1.0 mol; amount of aluminium.

m(Al) = n(Al) · M(Al).

m(Al) = 1 mol · 27 g/mol.

m(Al) = 27 g; mass of aluminium.

Which pair of samples contains the same number of oxygen atoms in each compound?0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO40.20 mol Br2O

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.20 mol Br2O and 0.20 mol HBrO have the same number of oxygen atoms

Explanation:

0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO4

In Ba(OH)2 there are 2 moles of O atoms in every mol of Ba(OH)2.

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles Ba(OH)2 = 2*0.20 = 0.40 moles O atom

In H2SO4 there are 4 moles of O atoms for every mol of H2SO4.

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles H2SO4 = 4*0.20 = 0.80 moles O atom

⇒ 0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO4 do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

0.20 mol Br2O and 0.20 mol HBrO

In Br2O there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol Br2O

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles Br2O = 0.20*1 = 0.20 moles O atom

In HBrO there is 1 mol of O atom in every mol HBrO

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles HBrO = 0.20 *1 = 0.20 moles O atom

⇒ in 0.20 moles Br2O and 0.20 moles HBrO we have the same number of oxygen atoms

0.20 moles of Oygen contains: = 0.20 * 6.022*10^23 = 1.2 *10^23 O atoms

0.10 mol Fe2O3 and 0.50 mol BaO

In Fe2O3 there are 3 moles of O atoms in every mol of Fe2O3

Number of O atoms in 0.10 moles Fe2O3 = 0.10 * 3 = 0.30 moles O atom

In BaO there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol BaO

Number of O atoms in 0.50 mol BaO = 1*0.50 = 0.50 moles O atom

⇒ 0.10 mol Fe2O3 and 0.50 mol BaO do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

0.10 mol Na2O and 0.10 mol Na2SO4

In Na2O there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol of Na2O

Number of O atoms in 0.10 mol Na2O = 1*0.10 = 0.10 moles O atom

In Na2sO4 there are 4 moles of O atoms in every mol of Na2SO4

Number of O atoms in 0.10 mol Na2SO4 = 4*0.10 = 0.40 moles O atom

⇒ 0.10 mol Na2O and 0.10 mol Na2SO4 do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.
