<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option b.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Oxidizing agent is defined as the chemical reagent which helps the other chemical compound to get oxidized and itself gets reduced. The oxidation state for these species gets reduced because they are undergoing reduction reaction.
For the given chemical equation:
Oxidation state of Chromium is getting reduced from +6 to +3 and oxidation state of chlorine getting increased from -1 to 0.
Hence, 
acts like and oxidizing agent because it is itself getting reduced to 
Therefore, the correct answer is Option b.
Answer:
65.08 g.
Explanation:
- For the reaction, the balanced equation is:
<em>2AlCl₃ + 3Br₂ → 2AlBr₃ + 3Cl₂,</em>
2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with 3.0 mole of Br₂ to produce 2.0 mole of AlBr₃ and 3.0 mole of Cl₂.
- Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 36.2 grams of AlCl₃:
<em>n = mass/molar mass</em> = (36.2 g)/(133.34 g/mol) = <em>0.2715 mol.</em>
<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>
2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with → 3.0 mole of Br₂, from the stichiometry.
0.2715 mol of AlCl₃ reacts with → ??? mole of Br₂.
∴ The no. of moles of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃ = (0.2715 mol)(3.0 mole)/(2.0 mole) = 0.4072 mol.
<em>∴ The mass of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃ = no. of moles of Br₂ x molar mass</em> = (0.4072 mol)(159.808 g/mol
) = <em>65.08 g.</em>
A Bunsen burner, named after Robert Bunsen, is a common piece of laboratory equipment that produces a single open gas flame, which is used for heating, sterilization, and combustion. The gas can be natural gas (which is mainly methane) or a liquefied petroleum gas, such as propane, butane, or a mixture of both. Have A Great Day :)
