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.

if a plot weight (in g) vs. volume (in ml) for a metal gave the equation y= 13.41x and r^2=0.9981 what is the density of the met
Bumek [7]

ANS: density = 13.41 g/ml

Density (d) of a substance is the mass (m) occupied by it in a given volume (v).

Density = mass/volume

i.e. d = m/v

m = (d) v -----(1)

The given equation from the plot of weight vs volume is :

y = 13.41 x ----(2)

Based on equations (1) and (2) we can deduce that the density of the metal is 13.41 g/ml

11. What are transition metals?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Elements that fall between those on the left and right sides of the periodic table

Explanation:

Transition metals:

These are present at the center of periodic table.

These are d-block elements.

They include the elements of group 3 to 12 in periodic table.

They have large charge to radius ratio.

They mostly form paramagnetic compounds.

They shoes more than one oxidation state.

They form colored compounds.

They all have high melting and boiling point.

They have high densities.

They form stable complexes.

The elements of f-block are also transition but they are called inner transition.These are consist of two series lanthanide and actinides.

In which of the following sets are the charges given correctly for all the
Ronch [10]

Answer:

B) K⁺, Sr²⁺ , O²⁻

Explanation:

Potassium is present in group one. It is alkali metal and have one valance electron.Potassium need to lose its one valance electron and form cation to get complete octet.

That's why it shows K⁺.

Sr is alkaline earth metal. It is present in group two. It has two valance electrons. Strontium needed to lose its two valance electrons and get stable electronic configuration.

When it loses its two valance electrons it shows cation with charge of +2.

Sr²⁺

Oxygen is present in group 16. It has sex valance electrons. It needed two more electrons to complete the octet. That's why oxygen gain two electron and form anion with a charge of -2.

O²⁻
