Answer:
A <u><em>reducing agent </em></u>is an element or compound that loses (or "donates") an electron to an electron recipient (oxidizing agent) in a redox chemical reaction.
Explanation:
Redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously.
Oxidation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets increased during this reaction.

Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

Electrons are transferred from one atom to another in this type of reaction.
Reducing agent is defined as those substance which reduces other chemical compound and oxidizes itself by donating electrons.
Oxidizing agent is defined as those substance which oxidizes other chemical compound and reduces itself by accepting electrons.
The number of moles present in the FeSO4 are 0.055 mol.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The mass of a substance containing the same number atoms in 12.0 g of 12C is known as mole. One mole of any substance is equal to 6.023 x 10^23. The moles of a substance can be determined by using the formula,
Number of moles = mass in grams / molecular mass
Given,
mass = 8.36 g,
molecular mass of FeSO4 = 151.908 g / mol
number of moles = 8.36 / 151.908
= 0.055 mol.
Answer:
2.765 × × 10³ moles of O₂
Explanation:
The chemical equation to produce water from oxygen and hydrogen is;
2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g) = 2H₂O (l)
From the equation above, we see that;
2 moles of H₂O is produced from 1 mole of O₂
Thus; 5.53 × 10³ moles of H₂O will require;
(5.53 x 10³ moles of H₂O × 1 mole of O₂)/2 moles of H₂O = 2.765 × × 10³ moles of O₂
Answer:
42672 kJ
Explanation:
Chemical reaction:
C₂H₄ + H₂ → C₂H₆ + heat
Now we calculate the number of moles of ethane C₂H₆:
number of moles = mass / molecular weight
number of moles of ethane = 10.1 / 30 = 0.336 kmoles = 336 moles
And determine the heat released:
if 127 kJ are released when 1 mole of C₂H₆ is produced
then X kJ are released when 336 moles of C₂H₆ is produced
X = (127 × 336) / 1 = 42672 kJ
Answer:
<u>uniform composition.</u>
Explanation:
A phase is a part of a system with uniform composition.
- In physics and chemistry , a phase in a physically distinctive form of matter , such as solid , liquid , gas or plasma.
- A phase matter is characterised by having relatively uniform chemical and physical properities . Phases are different from states of matter.
- The states of matter (e.g ., solid , liquid , gas ) are phases but matter can exist in different phases and yet be in the same type of matter. For example , liquid mixtures can exist in multiple phases such as oily and aqueous phase.
- some different types of phases are : solid, liquid,gas , plasma etc.
- The term phase can also sometime mean describe equilibrium in phase diagram
