<span>Reaction: CI2 + H2O    ---->  HCIO + HCI

Oxidations states:

The oxitation state of Cl2 = 0, because the oxidation state of an atom alone or a molucule with one kind of atom is always 0.

The oxidation state of Cl in HClO is +1 because the oxidation state of H is + 1, the oxidation state of O is - 2, and the molecule is neutral, so  +1 + 1 - 2 = 0

The oxidation state of Cl in HCl is - 1, because the oxidation state of H is +1 and the molecule is neutral, so - 1 + 1 = 0.

Also, you shall remember that when an atom increases its oxidation state is is oxidized and when an atoms reduces its oxidations state it is reduced.

With that you conclude that the right option is the last statement: </span>Cl has an oxidation number of 0 in Cl2. It is then reduced to CI- with an oxidation number of –1 in HCl and is oxidized to Cl+ with an oxidation number +1 in HClO.

Which of the following leads to a higher rate of diffusion?
tiny-mole [99]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Higher velocity of particles

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The diffusion rate is determined by a variety of factors which includes;

  • Temperature such that the higher the temperature, the more kinetic energy the particles will have, so they will move and mix more quickly and the diffusion rate will be high.
  • Concentration gradient such that the greater the difference in concentration, the quicker the rate of diffusion.
  • Higher velocity of particles increases the diffusion rate as this means more kinetic energy by the particles and hence the particles will mix and move faster, thus higher diffusion rate.

Write the equilibrium constant expression for the reaction below.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Kc = [H₂S]² . [CH₄] / [ H₂O]⁴ . [CS₂]

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant indicates the % of the yield reaction and can shows where the reaction is going to be equilibrated.

It works with molar concentrations on the equilibrium and it does not consider the solids compounds

Kc also can be modified by the time of the reaction.

This reaction is:

CS₂ (g) + 4 H₂O(g) ⇌ CH₄ (g) + 2H₂S (g)

Kc = [H₂S]² . [CH₄] / [ H₂O]⁴ . [CS₂]
