<span>To balance, we write it in its half reactions and balance the half reactions by adding H2O, OH-, H+ and electrons. We do as follows:

MnO4-(aq) + Cl-(aq) --------> MnO2(s) + Cl2(g) 


</span>2 (2H2O + MnO2 --> MnO4- + 4H+ 3e- )
<span>3 (2e- + Cl2 --> 2Cl- )
</span>
4H2O + 2MnO2 -----> 2MnO4- + 8H+ + 6e- 
<span>6e- + 3Cl2 -------> 6Cl- 
</span>----------------------------------------------------------------------
<span>4H2O + 2MnO2 + 3Cl2 --------> 2MnO4- + 6Cl- + 8H+ 

Since it is in a basic solution,

</span>8OH- + 2MnO2 + 3Cl2 -----> 2MnO4- + 6Cl- + 4H2O

The order in which atomic orbitals are filled is based on what factor?
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are principles that guides the distribution of electrons into the energy levels in an atom. Some of the principles are:

1. The maximum number of electrons in the orbitals of sublevels are:

2 electrons for s-sublevel with one orbital

6 for p-sublevel with 3 orbitals

10 for d- sublevel with 5 orbitals

14 for f-sublevel with 7 orbitals.

The maximum number of electrons in an orbital is 2.

2. Aufbau principle: it states that sublevels with lower energy are filled up before those with higher energy. Sublevels have pattern of filling.

3. Pauli exclusion principle: it states that no two electrons can have the same set of the four quantum numbers.

4. Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity: electrons goes into degenerate orbitals of sub-levels singly before pairing starts.

Consider the rate constants below. which would correspond to the highest order reaction? k = 8.79 x 102 ms–1 k = 4.46 x 10–1 m–1
Kipish [7]
When the order n of the reaction rate is determined by this formula:

rate = K * [A]^n

when we have the unit of rate M S^-1 

and the unit of [A] M

So:

1- for k = 8.79 x 10^2 M S^-1 :

when the unit of K here is M S^-1

by substitution in rate formula:

M S^-1 = M S^-1 * M ^n

∴ M^n = 1

∴M^0 = 1 

∴ this reaction rate is zero order reaction


2- when k = 4.46 x 10^-1  and has unit M-1 S-1:

by substitution in rate formula:

M S^-1 = M-1 S-1  * M^n

∴M^2 = M^n

∴n = 2 so this is the second order reaction

3- when K 2.35 x 10^6 and it's unit is S-1 :

So by substitution in rate formula:

M S^-1 = S^-1 * M^n

∴ M^n = M

∴ n = 1 

So this is the first order reaction

4- when k = 1.88 x 10^-3 and its unit is M-2 S-1 

by substitution in rate formula:

M S^-1 = M^-2 S^-1 * M^n

∴ M^n = M^3

∴ n = 3 

∴ this is a third order reaction 

from 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 

so we can see that the correct answer is (4), K= 1.88 x 10^-3 M-2 S-1 is the highest order reaction.

Does a bottle of acetic acid contain a solid or a liquid on a chilly morning with the window open and the laboratory at 10 ∘ C ?
Fofino [41]

Answer is:  a bottle of acetic acid contains a solid.

Acetic or ethanoic acid (CH₃COOH) when undiluted is called glacial acetic acid.

Glacial acetic acid has freezing point (melting point) around 16.6°C, so it will be at solit state.

Vinegar is mixture of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) and water (H₂O). Vinegar  is colourless liquid with sour taste and pungent smell, freezing point of the vinegar is lower than glacial acetic acid.

Acetic acid dissociate in aqueous solution to form hydrogen ions (H⁺) and acetic anion (CH₃COO⁻).

Balanced chemical reaction (dissociation):  

CH₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
