Hey there!:
HCl + MnO2 → MnCl2 + H2O + Cl2
* in HCl the oxidation state of Cl is -1 .
* on the product side the oxidation state is 0 .
* therefore Cl gains electrons .
* in MnO2 the oxidation state of Mn is +4
* in MnCl2 the oxidation state of Mn is +2
Therefore Mn loses electrons
Answer A
Hope That helps!
They can all by seperrated or replicated.
I believe it's answer #3. Logically, at least.
You can test #1 through trial and error.
You can experiment #2 also through trial and error.
You cannot test #3 through trial and error, because that would be catastrophic.
You can test #4 through a survey and individual study and data collection.
Answer:
4 moles of SO3 will be produced from 6 moles of oxygen.
Explanation:
From the reaction given
S8 + 12 O2 ----> 8 SO3
12 moles of oxygen reacts to form 8 moles of SO3
if 6 moles of oxygen were to be used instead, it has been reduced to half of the original mole of oxygen used. Then the moles of SO3 will also be reduced to half.
6 moles of O2 will yield 4 moles of SO3
12 moles = 8 moles
6 moles = ?
? = 6 * 8 / 12
? = 48/ 12
? = 4 moles of SO3.
