The oxidation number of what atom or ion decreases in the following reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Flauer [41]2 years ago
7 0

The oxidation number of I (iodine) decreases the in the described chemical reaction from 0 to -1.

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

I₂ + 2 KCl → KI + Cl₂

The following atoms have a change in the oxidation number:

I with a 0 oxidation number (in I₂) goes to I with -1 oxidation number (in KI) by receiving 1 electron.

Cl with a -1 oxidation number (in KCl) goes to I with 0 oxidation number (in Cl₂) by losing 1 electron.

A mixture of reactants and products for the reaction shown below is at
zavuch27 [327]

If the volume of the container were increased to 4.0 L, more N₂ and H₂ would be produced (Option D)

<h3>What is chemical equilibrium? </h3>

This is simply defined as a state in a chemical system where there is no observable change in the properties of the system with time.

<h3>Principle of chemical equilibrium </h3>

A French scientist postulated a principle which helps us to understand a chemical system in equilibrium.

The principle states as follow:

If a an external constraint such as change in temperature, pressure or concentration is imposed on a system in equilibrium, the equilibrium will shift so as to neutralize the effect.

<h3>How to determine what will happen if the volume of the container is increased from 2 L to 4 L</h3>

From the principle given above, we can see that volume does not affect equilirium position.

However, from Boyle's law, we understood that pressure and volume are in invest relationship.

Thus, increasing volume simply means decreasing pressure.

A decrease in pressure will favors the side where there is an increase in volume.

Let us consider the equation from the question:

N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) <=> 2NH₃(g)

  • Volume of reactants = 1 + 3 = 4 L
  • Volume of products = 2 L

Thus, we can conclude that increasing the volume (i.e decreasing the pressure) of the reaction will favors the backward reaction, hence, more N₂ and H₂ would be produced.

How much energy will it take to raise the temperature of 75.0 g of water from 20.0°C to 55.0°C?
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

We can use heat = mcΔT to determine the amount of heat, but first we need to determine ΔT. Because the final temperature of the water is 55°C and the initial temperature is 20.0°C, ΔT is as follows:

ΔT = Tfinal − Tinitial = 55.0°C − 20.0°C = 35.0°C

given the specific heat of water as 1 cal/g·°C. Substitute the known values into heat = mcΔT and solve for amount of heat:

=  heat=(75.0 g)(1 cal/ g· °C )(35.0°C) =

= 75x1x35=2625 cal

A container initially holds 5.67 x 10^-2 mol of propane and has a volume of V1. The volume of the container was increased by add
Brut [27]

Answer:

Initial volume of the container (V1) = 1.27 L (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Number of mol (n1) = 5.67 x 10⁻²

Number of mol (n2) = (5.67 +2.95) x 10⁻² = 8.62 x 10⁻²

New volume (V2) = 1.93 L

Find:

Initial volume of the container (V1)

Computation:

Using Avogadro's law

V1 / n1 = V2 / n2

V1 / 5.67 x 10⁻² = 1.93 / 8.62 x 10⁻²

V1 = 10.9431 / 8.62

Initial volume of the container (V1) = 1.2695

Initial volume of the container (V1) = 1.27 L (Approx)
