Answer: The balanced equation is 2Li + 2HNO_{3} \rightarrow 2LiNO_{3} + H_{2}.

Explanation:

The given reaction equation is as follows.

Li + HNO_{3} \rightarrow LiNO_{3} + H_{2}

Number of atoms present on reactant side are as follows.

  • Li = 1
  • H = 1
  • NO_{3} = 1

Number of atoms present on product side are as follows.

  • Li = 1
  • H = 2
  • NO_{3} = 1

To balance this equation, multiply Li by 2 and HNO_{3} by 2 on reactant side. Also, multiply LiNO_{3} by 2 on product side.

Hence, the equation can be rewritten as follows.

2Li + 2HNO_{3} \rightarrow 2LiNO_{3} + H_{2}

Now, number of atoms present on reactant side are as follows.

  • Li = 2
  • H = 2
  • NO_{3} = 2

Number of atoms present on product side are as follows.

  • Li = 2
  • H = 2
  • NO_{3} = 2

As there are same number of atoms on both reactant and product side. Hence, the equation is now balanced.

Thus, we can conclude that the balanced equation is 2Li + 2HNO_{3} \rightarrow 2LiNO_{3} + H_{2}.

Part a the disproportionation of mn2+(aq) to mn(s) and mno2(s) in acid solution at 25 ∘c. calculate δg∘rxn.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

ΔG^{o} = -461198.3 J

Explanation:

Gibbs free energy is defined as the energy associated with a given chemical reaction which can be used to do work. Firstly, we need to figure out the chemical equation for the given problem. For the given problem, the chemical equation is:

Mn^{2+} _{(aq)} + 2e^{-}⇒Mn_{(s)}      E^{o} = -1.18 V

Mn^{2+} _{(aq)} + H_{2}O ⇒MnO_{2(s)} +4H^{+} + 2e^{-}E^{o} = -1.21 V

The addition of the two E^{o} gives the E_{cell} of the equation, i.e. -1.18-1.21 = -2.39 V.

Then, using the equation for ΔG^{o}, we have:

ΔG^{o} = n*F*E^{o} = 2*96485*-2.39 = -461198.3 J

What is the pH of a 0.00530 M solution of HCI?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

2.28

Explanation:

HCl(l) ===> H+ + cl-

HCl is a very strong acid. Almost all of it will decompose to the right. That means the concentration of H+ is 0.00530

pH = - log [H+]

pH = - log[0.00530]

pH = - - 2.2757

pH = 2.2757

Rounded this 2.28
