Given the reaction: cu(s) + 4hno3(aq) → cu(no3)2(aq) + 2no3(g) + 2h2o(l )as the reaction occurs, what happens to copper?

From the reaction between Cu and HNO₃, the formed gas is NO₂ instead of NO₃. Hence the correct balanced equation would be,
Cu(s) + 4HNO₃(aq) → Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O<span>(l)

Here, Cu goes to </span>Cu(NO₃)₂ by changing its oxidation number from 0 to +2 while NO₃⁻ goes to NO₂ by reducing its oxidation state from +5 to +4 . Hence Cu is oxidized by HNO₃ in the reaction.

You observe 2 waves named alpha and beta. The alpha wave has a frequency of 5 Hz and the beta wave has a frequency of 2 Hz. Base
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

shorter wavelength = alpha wave

Explanation:

Given that,

The alpha wave has a frequency of 5 Hz and the beta wave has a frequency of 2 Hz.

We need to compare the wavelengths of these two waves.

For alpha wave,

\lambda_1=\dfrac{c}{f_1}\\\\\lambda_1=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{5}\\\\=6\times 10^7\ m

For beta wave,

\lambda_2=\dfrac{c}{f_2}\\\\\lambda_2=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{2}\\\\=15\times 10^7\ m

From the above calculations, we find that the wavelength of the alpha wave is shorter than the wavelength of the beta wave.

Plz help asap What can you conclude about the iron(ii) and iron(iii) ions?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The chemistry of iron is dominated by the +2 and +3 oxidation states i.e. iron(II) and iron(III) complexes e.g. Fe2+ and Fe3+ complex ions with selected ligands, usually of an octahedral shape, a few tetrahedral iron(III) complexes are mentioned too. The reactions of the aqueous ions iron(II) and iron(III) with ammonia, sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate are described and explained as are complexes of iron(III) with the chloride ion and cyanide ion.

principal oxidation states of iron, redox reactions of iron, ligand substitution displacement reactions of iron, balanced equations of iron chemistry, formula of iron complex ions, shapes colours of iron complexes, formula of compoundsExplanation:
