Identify the species oxidized, the species reduced, the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following electron transfe
1 answer:
Answer:
Oxidized and reducing agent: manganese.
Reduced and oxidizing agent: mercury.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, for the reaction:
We keep in mind that the species that increase the oxidation state is the oxidized one whereas the one that decrease the oxidation state is the reduced one; therefore manganese is the oxidized one as well as the reducing agent because it goes from 0 to +2 and mercury the reduced one as well as the oxidizing agent because it goes from 2+ to 0.
Best regards

Biphenyl will have a higher R value than the Methyl Orange.
Explanation:
Biphenyl is a aromatic hydrocarbon and it is a nonpolar molecule.
Methyl Orange is a organic compound with a -SO₃⁻Na⁺ polar functional group which will induce a high polarity in the compound.
You may find the chemical structures of both molecules in the attached picture.
Column chromatography, which use as stationary phase silica gel, is a good technique for separation of the Methyl Orange from Biphenyl.
Being a non-polar molecule, Biphenyl will have a higher R value than the Methyl Orange.
To separate them you use a appropriate solvent as eluent, as exemple chloroform, and Biphenyl will elute first from the column and after that, as a separate phase, Methyl Orange will elute thus separating them.
