Answer:
3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Explanation
This is a redox reaction.
- 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 or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
- [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)
A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.
Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl
[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹
[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵
Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.
and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]
This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.
Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃
Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)
Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
I believe is different in pressure
Answer: 12.78ml
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume of KOH Vb = ?
Concentration of KOH Cb = 0.149 m
Volume of HBr Va = 17.0 ml
Concentration of HBr Ca = 0.112 m
The equation is as follows
HBr(aq) + KOH(aq) --> KBr(aq) + H2O(l)
and the mole ratio of HBr to KOH is 1:1 (Na, Number of moles of HBr is 1; while Nb, number of moles of KOH is 1)
Then, to get the volume of a 0.149 m potassium hydroxide solution Vb, apply the formula (Ca x Va)/(Cb x Vb) = Na/Nb
(0.112 x 17.0)/(0.149 x Vb) = 1/1
(1.904)/(0.149Vb) = 1/1
cross multiply
1.904 x 1 = 0.149Vb x 1
1.904 = 0.149Vb
divide both sides by 0.149
1.904/0.149 = 0.149Vb/0.149
12.78ml = Vb
Thus, 12.78 ml of potassium hydroxide solution is required.
Answer:
Yes it is a mineral
Explanation:
Susanna has found a mineral because the five characteristics of a mineral are naturally occurring solid, crystal structure, forms by inorganic process, and definite chemical composition. Everything that was listed in the question describes the fact that its a mineral.
