Answer:

Oxidation, Reduction

Explanation:

A redox reaction is a short form for reduction-oxidation.

Reduction is a term which means that electron is gained while oxidation is a term which means that electron Is lost.

The species that gain electron is known as the oxidizing agent while the species losing electrons is known as the reducing agent

The molar mass of HgO is 216.59 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. How many moles of HgO are needed to produce 250.0 g
Irina-Kira [14]
A reaction in which Oxygen (O₂) is produced from Mercury Oxide (HgO) would be a decomposition reaction.
           2HgO    →    2Hg    +    O₂

If 250g of O₂ is needed to be produced,
then the moles of oxygen needed to be produced = 250g  ÷  32 g/mol
                                                                                     = 7.8125 mol

Now, the mole ratio of Oxygen to Mercury Oxide is  1  :  2
∴ if the moles of oxygen =  7.8125 mol
then the moles of mercury oxide = 7.8125 mol × 2
                                                        = 15.625 mol


Thus the number moles of HgO needed to produce 250.0 g of O₂ is 15.625 mol

Amy is asked to determine the chemical composition of an unknown liquid sample. She determines that the sample is negative for p
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Amy can apply the Tyndall Beam effect ,by shining a beam of light through the sample solution.

Explanation:

The chemical test for starch is add iodine solution to the tested sample which is yellow/brown and observe the color change to blue/black color. However, the physical test to distinguish simple sugars from starch is the shine a beam of light through the sample solution. Because that sample solution contained no simple sugars, then the presence of starch in the solution will be indicated by dispersal of light because the large starch molecules are enough to affect the light.

Why is the pH scale important in science? Give several examples of scientific applications.
lidiya [134]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The pH scale is important in science because it gives an indication of how acidic or basic a solution is. The scale ranges from 0 - 14 with 0 being the most acidic and 14 being the most basic while a pH of 7 is a neutral pH.</em>

The pH scale is widely applicable in several scientific applications such as in medicine/health, agricultural processes, industrial processes, environmental monitoring, research and development, etc.

In medicine, the pH of the stomach is monitored in order to make some diagnosis. The normal pH of the human stomach ranges from 1.5 - 3.5 and a major deviation from this range can give an indication of wrong health.

In agriculture, the pH condition of the soil on which crops are grown is quite important. While some crops require slightly acidic soil, some will only do well in alkaline soil. Hence, the pH condition of the soil must be monitored to ensure the optimal yield of crops.

Several industrial processes require the monitoring of pH in order to ensure product's quality or monitor some important reactions. In food industries, for example, monitoring the pH of reactions is necessary in order to prevent contamination by pathogens or ensure a good organoleptic quality of the final product. It is also necessary to monitor the pH of industrial wastewaters in order to avoid polluting the environment.

Monitoring pH is also important for environmental monitoring, The pH of various water bodies or soil can give an indication of the level of pollution in the water or the soil.
