Answer:

At the cathode in an electrolytic cell, ions in the surrounding solution are reduced into atoms, which precipitate or plate out on to the solid cathode. The anode is where oxidation takes place, and the cathode is where reduction takes place.

Rank the following substances in order from most soluble in water to least soluble in water: methane, CH4; 2-butanol, C4H9OH; ma
Taya2010 [7]

Answer: The given substances are placed in order from most soluble in water to least soluble in water as follows.

         MgCl_{2} > C_{4}H_{9}OH > C_{3}H_{8} > CH_{4}

Explanation:

It is known that like dissolves like which means a polar compound will be soluble in a polar solvent. And, a non-polar compound will be soluble in non-polar solvent.

Ionic compounds are soluble in polar solvent like water. For example, MgCl_{2} is an ionic compound and it is readily soluble in water.

2-butanol (C_{4}H_{9}OH) is also a polar compound and it will also dissolve in water but to a lesser extent as compared to magnesium chloride.

Whereas both methane and propane are non-polar in nature. But as propane is larger in size as compared to methane so, it will be slightly more soluble in water as compared to methane.

Thus, we can conclude that the given substances are placed in order from most soluble in water to least soluble in water as follows.

     MgCl_{2} > C_{4}H_{9}OH > C_{3}H_{8} > CH_{4}

The reaction between nitric oxide and oxygen is described by the following chemical equation: Suppose a two-step mechanism is pr
muminat

Answer:

2NO(g) + O2(g) ---> 2NO2(g)

Explanation:

The mechanism for this reaction involves two elementary reactions in which both are bimolecular as shown below;

NO(g) +O2(g) ----> NO2(g) + O(g)

NO(g) + O(g) ----> NO2(g)

Hence overall balanced reaction equation;

2NO(g) + O2(g) ---> 2NO2(g)
