Answer:

d. The gold(III) ion is most easily reduced.

Explanation:

The standard reduction potentials are

Au³⁺ + 3e⁻ ⟶ Au;   1.50 V

Hg²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Hg; 0.85 V

Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Zn; -0.76 V

Na⁺ + e⁻     ⟶ Na; -2.71 V

A <em>more positive voltage</em> means that there is a <em>stronger driving force</em> for the reaction.

Thus, Au³⁺ is the best acceptor of electrons.

Reduction Is Gain of electrons and, Au³⁺ is gaining electrons,  so

Au³⁺ is most easily reduced.

1. A student tried to solve the following problem by selecting the tile as shown. What, if anything, did the student do wrong?
slega [8]

Answer:

B. The student chose the correct tile, but needs to flip the tile to make the units cancel

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2AgNO₃(aq) + Cu(s) → 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO₃)₂ (aq)

<em>2 moles of AgNO₃ react per mole of Cu producing 2 moles of Ag and 1 mole of Cu(NO₃)₂</em>

Thus, if you want to produce 6.75moles of Cu(NO₃)₂ you need:

6.75moles of Cu(NO_3)_2  \frac{2 mol AgNO_3 }{1 mol Cu(NO_3)_2} = 13.50 moles of AgNO₃ are needed

Thus, if you analize the tile shown by the student:

<em>B. The student chose the correct tile, but needs to flip the tile to make the units cancel</em>

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

2Mg  + 2CO₂  →  2MgO  + C

Option a.

Explanation:

The chemical reactions are balanced in order to verify compliance with the Law of conservation of mass. This law states that in any chemical reaction, the mass of the reagents must be equal to the mass of the products
