ns:
•2H2S(g) + SO2(g) -> 2H2O(l) + 3S(s)

•SO2(g) +H2O(l) +NaClO(aq) -> NaCl(aq) + H2SO4(aq)

Answer:

A) oxidizing agent is SO2

B) NaClO is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

A) This is a redox reaction in which oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously.

Thus, in 2H2S(g) + SO2(g) -> 2H2O(l) + 3S(s);

H2S is reduced as follows;

H2S → S + 2H+ + 2e−

We can see that SO2 has been reduced while H2S gets oxidized since it has changed state from - 2 to 0 . Thus sulphur dioxide is the oxidizing agent.

B) SO2(g) + H2O(l) + NaClO(aq) -> NaCl(aq) + H2SO4(aq)

In this, SO2 undergoes oxidation and NaClO is the oxidizing agent

Imporance of mixture in our daily life​
garri49 [273]

Answer:A mixture is a mechanical combination of several elements or compounds. Mixtures are used in cooking, chemical manufacturing, and a lot of other processes. A good mixture with the materials evenly distributed facilitates a good after mixture process. That might be a chemical reaction or a great cake. One mixture that we see the results of a lot is the mixture of water, gravel, and Portland cement that, after a good mix, becomes concrete. Other mixtures might include the various plastics and epoxies that require two or more parts to become a finished product. There are so many possible mixtures out there I’d suggest chemical engineering books , chemistry books in general, cook books, books on construction processes, and many other possible sources of mixtures and the results of using them.
