Answer: I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.
Explanation:
An Oxidant is any substance that oxidizes, or receives electrons from, another; in so doing, it becomes reduced in oxidation number.
A Reductant thus exactly the opposite.
Note that the equation provided shows that Iodine (I2) received an electron to become NEGATIVELY CHARGED:
I2 --> 2I-.
The oxidation number reduced from 0 to -1.
In contrast, the oxidation number of 2S2O3(-2) increases from -4 to -2.
Thus, I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.
Answer:
Explanation:
13 ) symbol of enthalpy change = Δ H .
14 ) enthalpy change is nothing but heat absorbed or evolved .
During fusion enthalpy change
Δ H .= m Lf , m is mass and Ls is latent heat of fusion
During evaporation, enthalpy change
Δ H .= m Lv , m is mass and Lv is latent heat of evaporation
during temperature rise , enthalpy change
Δ H = m c Δ T
In case of gas , enthalpy change can be calculated by the following relation
Δ H = Δ E + W , Δ E is change in internal energy , W is work done by gas.
15 ) When enthalpy change is negative , that means heat is released to the environment .So reaction is called exothermic .
when heat is absorbed enthalpy change is positive . Reaction is endothermic.
Answer:
The presence of 1-2% ethanol as catalyst, suppresses the oxidation of chloroform with oxygen to give a poisonous gas called phosgene. ... Here glycerol acts as negative catalyst. Criteria or characteristics of catalysts. i. The mass and chemical composition of catalyst should remain unchanged at the end of the reaction.
Explanation:
Answer:
<em>Protons:
</em>
- Positively charged particle
- The number of these is the atomic number
- All atoms of a given element have the same number of these
<em>Neutrons: </em>
- Isotopes of a given element differ in the number of these
- The mass number is the number of these added to the number of protons
Explanation:
Protons (<em>positively charged</em>), neutrons (<em>neutral</em>) and electrons (negatively charged) are smaller than an atom and they are the main subatomic particles. The nucleus of an atom is composed of protons and neutrons, and the electrons are in the periphery at unknown pathways.
The <em>Atomic number</em> (Z) indicates the number of protons (
) in the nucleus. Every atom of an element have the <em>same atomic number</em>, thus the <em>same number of protons</em>.
The <em>mass number </em>(A) is the sum of the <em>number of protons</em> (
) <em>and neutrons</em> (N) that are present in the nucleus: <em>A= Z + N</em>
<em>Isotopes</em> are atoms of the <em>same element </em>which nucleus have the <em>same atomic number</em> (Z), and <em>different mass number (A)</em>, it means the <em>same number of protons</em> (
) and a <em>different number of neutrons</em> (N). For example, the oxygen in its natural state is a mixture of isotopes:
99.8% atoms with A= 16, Z=8, and N=8
0.037% atoms with A=17, Z=8, and N=9
0.204% atoms with A=18, Z=8, and N=10
