Which half-reaction correctly shows the oxidation of iron

Chemistry
1 answer:
VLD [36.1K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The half-reaction correctly shows the oxidation of iron Fe\rightarrow Fe^{2+}+2e^-

Explanation:

Oxidation-reduction reaction or redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases.

The oxidation of iron is represented as:

Fe\rightarrow Fe^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced.

The reduction of iron is represented as:

Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe

For the reaction 2hbr(g)⇌h2(g)+br2(g), k= 2.00×10−19 at 298 k what can be said about this reaction at this temperature? hints fo
Olin [163]

The equilibrium constant k is actually the ratio of the concentration of the products over the concentration of reactants at equilibrium. So if the concentration of products < concentration of reactants, therefore the constant k will be small. But if the concentration of products > concentration of reactants, the constant k will be large. In this case the value is too small (x10^-19), therefore we can say that the reaction favors the reactant side:

 

the equilibrium lies far to the left

If your lawn is 21.0 ft wide and 20.0 ft long, and each square foot of lawn accumulates 1350 new snow flakes every minute. How m
klemol [59]
Let us start with the total area of the lawn. Area= width x length, ie, 21 x 20 = 420 sq. ft.   Snow flakes per square foot per minute = 1350  So Snow flakes for 420 sq.feet per minute = 420 x 1350 = 567000.   Snow flakes for 1 hour = 567000 x 60 = 34020000 (60 minutes)  Weight of 34020000 snow flakes = 34020000 x 1.60 = 54432000mg.  To convert it into kilograms, divide this number by 1000000 (1 kilogram = 1000000 milligrams)  Thus 54432000/1000000 = 54.432 kilograms or 54 kilograms and 432 grams.

a sample of carbon dioxide contains 3.8 moles of oxygen atoms, how many moles of carbon dioxide are in the sample?
dedylja [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.9 moles

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a compound that is made up of carbon and oxygen elements.

It contains 2 moles of oxygen atoms and 1 mole of carbon atoms

Therefore;

We would say, 1 mole of CO₂ → 2 moles of Oxygen atoms + 1 mole of carbon atoms

Thus;

If a sample of CO₂ contains 3.8 moles of oxygen atoms we could use mole ratio to determine the moles of CO₂

Mole ratio of CO₂ to Oxygen is 1 : 2

Therefore;

Moles of CO₂ = 3.8 moles ÷ 2

                      = 1.9 moles

Hence, the moles of CO₂ present in a sample that would produce 3.8 moles of Oxygen atoms is 1.9 moles
