Is the distance between atoms in a solid constant? Explain why or why not.

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:
In solid materials, the atomic spacing is described by the bond lengths of its atoms. In ordered solids, the atomic spacing between two bonded atoms is generally around a few ångströms (Å), which is on the order of 10−10 meters.

How did you use QPOE?

Jlenok [28]

QPOE Files

The x-ray data are stored in QPOE files (Quick Position-Ordered Events, *.qp) rather than image arrays. These are lists of photons identified by several quantities, including the position on the detector, pulse height, and arrival time. Note that, unlike IRAF images, QPOE files have no associated header file, and are always stored in the current directory, unless explicitly specified otherwise. Non-PROS IRAF tasks can also access QPOE data files in place of image arrays.

Which of these half-reactions represents reduction?

gogolik [260]

Answer: The half-reactions represents reduction are as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$
$MnO^{-}_{4} \rightarrow Mn^{2+}$

Explanation:

A half-reaction where addition of electrons take place or a reaction where decrease in oxidation state of an element takes place is called reduction-half reaction.

For example, the oxidation state of Cr in $Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7}$ is +6 which is getting converted into +3, that is, decrease in oxidation state is taking place as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} + 3 e^{-} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$

Similarly, oxidation state of Mn in $MnO^{-}_{4}$ is +7 which is getting converted into +2, that is, decrease in oxidation state is taking place as follows.
