In a redox reaction, reduction is defined by the:

Chemistry
1 answer:
jonny [76]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. Gain in electron(s) resulting in a decrease of oxidation number.

Explanation:

Redox reactions are reactions involving transfer of of electron between two species (reduction specie) and (oxidation species) and change resulting in change in oxidation number.

Reduction in terms of redox reaction is the specie that accepts electron(s) and gets "reduced" since its oxidation state has been reduced.

For example

Cl + e- → Cl⁻

The above reaction is an example of reduction reaction taking place in a redox reaction. We can see that Chlorine oxidation state was changed from (0) to (-1) state.

Which type of chemical reaction occurs in 2KCIO3 → AKCI + 302?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Decomposition reaction

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

The given reaction is decomposition reaction.

Decomposition reaction:

It is the reaction in which one reactant is break down into two or more product.

AB → A + B

Synthesis reaction:

It is the reaction in which two or more simple substance react to give one or more complex product.

Single replacement:

It is the reaction in which one elements replace the other element in compound.

AB + C → AC + B

Double replacement:

It is the reaction in which two compound exchange their ions and form new compounds.

AB + CD  → AC +BD

Travka [436]

Answer

Africa

Explanation:

Burning fossil fuels and deforestation is disturbingly heightened in Africa with almost no viable measure taking to control it's effect. No effective programs are presently in place to control excessive tree falling used for herbs, firewood, charcoal business and a whole lot. Below standard carbon rating PMS are in high circulation with fumes, carbon monoxide is full abundance in the atmosphere. Presently, all these unchecked activities have resulted into unexplainable excessive increase in temperatures, breeding neck twisting diseases, severe skin infections, dehydration and increase diabetes. Drought has eaten up landlocked cities in Nigeria and Central Africa. Infact farmers have lost count of the usual natural cycle of rainfall and the beginning of each farming season due to this essential evil of climate change

To a 25.00 mL volumetric flask, a lab technician adds a 0.150 g sample of a weak monoprotic acid, HA , and dilutes to the mark w
Elis [28]

<u>Answer:</u> The number of moles of weak acid is 4.24\times 10^{-3} moles.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the moles of KOH, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

We are given:

Volume of solution = 43.81 mL = 0.04381 L      (Conversion factor: 1L = 1000 mL)

Molarity of the solution = 0.0969 moles/ L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0969mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of KOH}}{0.04381}\\\\\text{Moles of KOH}=4.24\times 10^{-3}mol

The chemical reaction of weak monoprotic acid and KOH follows the equation:

HA+KOH\rightarrow KA+H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of KOH reacts with 1 mole of weak monoprotic acid.

So, 4.24\times 10^{-3}mol of KOH will react with = \frac{1}{1}\times 4.24\times 10^{-3}=4.24\times 10^{-3}mol of weak monoprotic acid.

Hence, the number of moles of weak acid is 4.24\times 10^{-3} moles.
