Answer:

3MnO₄⁻ + 24H⁺ + 5Au → 5Au³⁺ + 3Mn²⁺ + 12H₂O.

Explanation:

  • KMnO₄ is strong oxidizing agent which is reduced and oxidizes Au according to the two-half reactions:

The oxidation reaction: Au → Au³⁺ + 3e.

The reduction reaction: MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ + 5e → Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O.

  • To obtain the net redox reaction, we multiply the oxidation reaction by 5 and the reduction reaction by 5 to equalize the no. of electrons in the two-half reactions.

<em>So, the net redox reaction will be:</em>

<em>3MnO₄⁻ + 24H⁺ + 5Au → 5Au³⁺ + 3Mn²⁺ + 12H₂O.</em>

R spectroscopy can be used to identify which _____________________ are present in a compound.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

IR spectroscopy can be used to identify chemical structures are present in compounds.

Explanation:

Infrared spectroscopy is a technique in organic chemistry that can be use use to identify chemical structures present in compounds because it is base on the ability of different functional groups to adsorb infrared light.

This work by shinning the infrared lights into the organic compounds to be identified, some of the frequencies of the infrared lights are adsorbed by the compounds and its identify groups of atoms and molecules in the compound.

Water vapor is not usually seen.
xeze [42]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Water vapor is totally invisible.

Without it, there would be no clouds or rain or snow, since all of these require water vapor in order to form. All of the water vapor that evaporates from the surface of the Earth eventually returns as precipitation - rain or snow.
