Answer : Al
Explanation :
- For a given redox reaction there must be an oxidizing agent/(s) and a reducing agent/(s).
- the oxidizing agent is the substance that undergoes reduction process (gaining electrons or loss of oxygen atoms), meanwhile, the reducing agent is the substance that undergoes oxidation process (loss of electrons or gaining of oxygen atoms).
- In the reaction above, the oxidation number of (Al) in AlCl3 is (3+). However, the oxidation number of (Al) in the products is zero because it exists as a single element.
Therefore, changing from (3+) to zero means gaining of (3) electrons to neutralize the previously existing (3) protons on (Al) in AlCl3.
So Al is the oxidizing agent..
Answer:
Noble gases
Explanation:
The noble gases are non-metals that requires the highest amount of energy to remove an electron from their shells.
The reason for this difficult is that their electronic configuration confers a stable configuration them.
- The ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electrons in an atom.
- Due to the special stability of noble gases, it is very difficult to remove electrons from an atom of noble gases.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
When water reacts with formic acid, The following equilibrium is set up;
HCOOH(aq) + H20(l) ⇄ HCOO-(aq) + H30+(aq)
This is because, the water abstracts a proton from formic acid to form its conjugate base, formate ion.
At equilibrium, the forward is favored.
Accurate data means the data experimentally obtained are close to the true value. Precise data means the data obtained are close to one another. In this case, the data are close to the true value which is 1.2 and the data are relatively close to one another. Hence the set is both accurate and precise.
One mole (abbreviated mol) is equal to 6.022×1023 molecular entities (Avogadro's number), and each element has a different molar mass depending on the weight of 6.022×1023 of its atoms (1 mole). The molar mass of any element can be determined by finding the atomic mass of the element on the periodic table.
