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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Flauer [41]3 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.

Calculate the volume of chlorine molecules produced at room temperature and pressure, when 234g of sodium chloride are electroly
rewona [7]

The volume of chlorine molecules produced at STP would be 96 dm³.

<h3>Stoichiometric problem</h3>

Sodium chloride ionizes during electrolysis to produce sodium and chlorine ions as follows:

NaCl --- > Na^+ + Cl^-

This means that 1 mole of sodium chloride will produce 1 mole of sodium ion and 1 mole of chlorine ion respectively.

Recall that: mole = mass/molar mass

Hence, 234 g of sodium chloride will give:

                         234/58.44 = 4.00 moles.

Thus, the equivalent number of moles of chlorine produced by 234 g of sodium chloride will be 4 moles.

Recall that:

1 mole of every gas at Standard Temperature and Pressure = 24 Liters.

Hence:

4 moles of chlorine = 4 x 24 = 96 Liters or 96 dm³.

Is KNO a strong acid?
stira [4]

Answer:

First of all, it's KNO₃ not KNO.

Second, KNO₃ is neither an acid nor it is a base, infact, it is a salt and therefore it's neutral.

hope that helps...

When 10.0 grams of sulfur reacts with fluorine gas at a pressure of 2.69 atmosphere in a 5.00 L container at 0.00 degrees Celsiu
Gwar [14]

Answer:

74.1%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

S₈ + 16F₂ → 8SF₄

<em>1 mole of sulfur reacts with 16 moles of F₂ to produce 8 moles of SF₄</em>

<em />

To solve this question we must find the moles of each reactant in order to find the moles of SF₄. Thus, we can find the theoretical mass produced. Percent yield is:

Percent yield = Actual yield (25.0g) / Theoretical yield * 100

<em>Moles S₈: 256.52g/mol</em>

10.0g * (1mol / 256.52g) = 0.0390 moles

<em>Moles F₂:</em>

<em>PV = nRT</em>

PV/RT = n

<em>Where P is pressure in atm, V is volume in liters, R is gas constant and T is absolute temperature (0°C = 273.15K)</em>

2.69atm*5.00L / 0.082atmL/molK*273.15K = n

0.600 moles = n

For a complete reaction of 0.600 moles F₂ are required:

0.600mol F₂ * (1mol S₈ / 8 mol F₂) = 0.075 moles S₈

As there are just 0.0390 moles, S₈ is limiting reactant.

The theoretical moles and mass of SF₄ -Molar mass: 108.07g/mol- is:

0.0390 moles S₈ * (8mol SF₄ / 1mol S₈) = 0.312 moles SF₄ * (108.07g) =

33.7g

Percent yield = 25.0g / 33.7g * 100

= 74.1%
