Answer:

Explanation:

When Tollen's test is done by aldehyde , silver ion is converted into silver which forms a layer which looks like a mirror.

Ag⁺ + e = Ag

It is a reduction process where silver(1) ion is reduced to metallic silver.

Aldehyde is oxidized to carboxylate ion.

CH₃CHO + 2 OH⁻ = CH₃COO⁻ + H₂O + H⁺ + 2e

Visual indicator is silver metal which forms silver mirror at the bottom of test tube .

How many moles of ammonia (nh3 will be produced from 4.0 moles of nitrogen (n2?
Lana71 [14]
Standard equation would be N2(g)+3H2(g)==>2NH3(g), so through stoichiometry, (4 mol N2)(2mol NH3/1 mol N2), assuming excess H2, would yield 8 moles of NH3.

For the closed system below: Cu(s) + 2Ag+(aq) 2Ag(s) + Cu2+(aq) How would you know if the system is at equilibrium?
zaharov [31]
For the chemical reactiom to be at equilibrium:
1- The rate of forward reaction must be equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.
2- The mass of EACH element must be equal before and after the reaction (no NET change in mass), otherwise the equilibrium will shift.

Important note: you need to check the mass of each element before and after the reaction (i.e, reactants side and products side) and the not the mass of the system as a whole. This is because the mass of the whole system will be preserved whether the system is at equilibrium or not (this is the fundamental law of mass conservation)
