The name of the chemical made of 14 g Lithium or 2 moles
Lithium, 32 g Sulfur or 1 mol sulfur and 64 g oxygen or 4 moles of oxygen is
Lithium sulfate. From the chemical reation:
<span>2Li + S + 4O > Li2SO4</span>
K2Cr2O7 + 14HCl → 2CrCl3 + 2KCl + 3Cl2 + 7H2O
the correct option is :
K2Cr2O7, because the oxidation number of Cr changes from +6 to +3.
<u>Oxidation number of Cr in K2Cr2O7 is:</u>
K2Cr2O7 = 2K + 2 Cr + 7 O
= 2(+1) + 2Cr + 7(-2)
= 2 + 2Cr -14
[total charge on K2Cr2O7 = 0], Hence;
2 + 2Cr -14 = 0
2Cr -12 = 0
2Cr = 12
Cr = 12/2
<u>Cr = +6</u>
<u>Oxidation number of Cr in CrCl3 is:</u>
CrCl3 = Cr + 3Cl = 0
Cr + 3(-1) = 0
Cr -3 = 0
<u>Cr = +3</u>
Hence Cr is changing its oxidation number from
+6 in K2Cr2O7 to +3 in CrCl3.
Since the oxidation number of Cr [ +6 → +3] is decreasing here,
Cr is getting reduced.
so K2Cr2O7 is an oxidizing agent,as it is getting itself reduced and oxidizes others.
Answer: 16 neutrons
Explanation: The atomic number for any element is the number of protons in its atomic nuclei. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons are the same as the number of protons. The atomic mass (mass number) is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Mass number can vary due to the fact that the number of neutrons can vary. Isotopes are named for their mass numbers.
So, this element has 15 protons (atomic number), 15 electrons, and 16 neutrons (mass number minus atomic number).
This isotope is phosphorus-31, which has atomic number 15.
