In the following reaction, identify the oxidized species, reduced species, oxidizing agent, and reducing agent. Be sure to answe
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer :

Cl_2 is reduced species.

KI is oxidized species.

Cl_2 is oxidizing agent.

KI is reducing agent.

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Reducing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to reduce and itself gets oxidized. Thus, it will undergo oxidation reaction.

Oxidizing agent : It is defined as the agent which helps the other substance to oxidize and itself gets reduced. Thus, it will undergo reduction reaction.

The balanced redox reaction is :

Cl_2(aq)+2KI(aq)\rightarrow 2KCl(aq)+I_2(aq)

The half oxidation-reduction reactions are:

Oxidation reaction : 2I^-\rightarrow I_2+2e^-

Reduction reaction : Cl_2^++2e^-\rightarrow 2Cl^-

From this we conclude that the 'KI' is the reducing agent that loses an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets oxidized and 'Cl_2' is the oxidizing agent that gain an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction and itself gets reduced.

Thus, Cl_2 is reduced species.

KI is oxidized species.

Cl_2 is oxidizing agent.

KI is reducing agent.

A 125G sample of water was heated to 100.0°C and then I borrow platinum 20.0°C is dropped into the beaker the temperature of the
Sophie [7]

Answer:

mass of platinum = 2526.12 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water = 125 g

Initial temperature of water= 100.0°C

Initial temperature of Pt = 20.0°C

Final temperature = 235°C

Specific heat of Pt = 0.13 j/g°C

Specific heat of water = 4.184 j/g°C

Mass of platinum = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

Q(w) = Q(Pt)

m.c.  (T2 - T1)   =   m.c.   (T2 - T1)

125 g × 4.184 j/g°C ×  (235°C - 100.0°C)  = m × 0.13 j/g°C ×  (235°C - 20°C)

125 g × 4.184 j/g°C × 135°C  = m × 0.13 j/g°C × 215°C

70605 j = m×27.95 j/g

m = 70605 j /27.95 j/g

m = 2526.12 g

Two springs have different spring constants. How could you identify the spring with the greater spring constant value?
Darya [45]
The spring constant determines how far the spring will stretch for a given applied force: <span>F=kx→k=<span>Fx</span></span><span>. If we place the same mass on the two springs, which means we have placed the same force on them, the one that stretches </span>least<span> has the largest spring constant.
Hope this helps!
