Answer:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Explanation:
Let us consider the complete redox reaction:
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
This is a redox reaction because, both oxidation and reduction is simultaneously taking place.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
Here Zn(s) is undergoing oxidation from OS 0 to +2
And H in HCl (aq) is undergoing reduction from OS +1 to 0.
Therefore, for this reaction;
Oxidation Half equation is:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Reduction Half equation is:
2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂(g)
Most animals obtain their nutrients by the consumption of other organisms. At the cellular level, the biological molecules necessary for animal function are amino acids, lipid molecules, nucleotides, and simple sugars. However, the food consumed consists of protein, fat, and complex carbohydrates.
That would be the first option Ca(OH)2 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + 2H2O.
The Ca replaces the H2 in H2SO4, and the H2 replaces the Ca is Ca(OH)2.
When PH + POH = 14
∴ POH = 14 -7 = 7
when POH = -㏒[OH-]
7 = -㏒ [OH-]
∴[OH-] = 10^-7
by using ICE table:
Mn(OH)2(s) ⇄ Mn2+ (aq) + 2OH-(aq)
initial 0 10^-7
change +X +2X
Equ X (10^-7 + 2X)
when Ksp = [Mn2+][OH-]^2
when Ksp of Mn(OH)2 = 4.6 x 10^-14
by substitution:
4.6 x 10^-14 = X*(10^-7+2X)^2 by solving this equation for X
∴ X =2.3 x 10-5 M
∴ The solubility of Mn(OH)2 in grams per liter (when the molar mass of Mn(OH)2 = 88.953 g/mol
= 2.3 x10^-5 moles/L * 88.953 g/mol
= 0.002 g/ L
