Answer:

6Fe^2+(aq) -------> 6Fe^3+(aq) + 6e

Explanation:

The balanced oxidation half equation is;

6Fe^2+(aq) -------> 6Fe^3+(aq) + 6e

A redox reaction is actually an acronym for oxidation-reducation reaction. Since the both reactions are complementary, there can't be oxidation without reduction and there can't be reduction without oxidation.

The main characteristic of redox reactions is that electrons are transferred in the process. The number of electrons transferred is usually deduced from the balanced reaction equation. For this reaction, the balanced overall reaction equation is;

Cr2O7^2–(aq) + 6Fe^2+(aq) +14H^+(aq)→ 2Cr^3+(aq) + 6Fe^3+ (aq) + 7H2O(l)

It is clear from the equation above that six electrons were transferred. Thus six Fe^2+ ions lost one electron each in the oxidation half equation as shown in the balanced oxidation half equation above.

Calculate the volume of hydrogen if you have 12.1 moles of Hydrogen.
vodomira [7]

To Find :

The volume of 12.1 moles hydrogen at STP.

Solution :

We know at STP, 1 mole of gas any gas occupy a volume of 22.4 L.

Let, volume of 12.1 moles of hydrogen is x.

So, x = 22.4 × 12.1 L

x = 271.04 L

Therefore, the volume of hydrogen gas at STP is 271.04 L.

A measured sample of argon gas has a volume of 20.0 L at a pressure of 660 mm Hg. What is the final volume
valkas [14]

Answer:

C . 24 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 20.0 L

Initial pressure of gas = 660 mmHg

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 550 mmHg

Solution:

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume  

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

660 mmHg × 20.0 L = 550 mmHg × V₂

V₂ = 13200 mmHg. L/ 550 mmHg

V₂ = 24 L

Which of the following shows three elements in order of decreasing electronegativity?
damaskus [11]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D which is the decreasing order of conductivity is Mn, O, Ge.

Explanation:

You can easily answer this if you know the periodic trends. For the property of electrical conductivity, it decreases across a period and decreases also down a group. Thus, the most conductive element must be Mn, while the least conductive one is Ge. So, the answer is: -Mn, O, Ge

It is easier to determine the electron configurations for the p-block elements in periods 1, 2, and 3 than to determine the elec
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Because you have to get through the d-block electron configurations for the rest of the p-block elements which is a hassle to do. You need to know how to account for electron stability, from which subshell to remove electrons, etc. because it is all weird for d-block.
