<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

When hydrogen is covalently bonded to an electronegative atom

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Hydrogen bonding is a special type of dipole-dipole attraction between molecules. It results from the attractive force between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom such as a N, O, or F atom.
  • Highly electronegative atoms attract shared electrons more strongly than hydrogen does, resulting in a slight positive charge on the hydrogen atom. The slightly positive hydrogen atom is then attracted to another electronegative atom, forming a hydrogen bond.

Many oxidation-reduction reactions can be balanced by inspection. Try to balance the following reactions by inspection. In each
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Balanced reaction: C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

Reduced: O₂

Oxidized : C₃H₈

Explanation:

For the given reaction:

C₃H₈(g) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + H₂O(l)

In the reactants, there are 3 C, and in the products only one, so we multiply CO₂ by 3:

C₃H₈(g) + O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + H₂O(l)

In the reactants, there are 8 H, and in the products, there are 2 H, so we multiply H₂O by 4:

C₃H₈(g) + O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

In the reactants are 2 O, and in the products 10 O, so we multiply O₂ by 5:

C₃H₈(g) + 5O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

The reaction is balanced.

Let's identify the oxidation number (Nox) of the elements in each compound.

C₃H₈:

H has fix Nox equal to +1, and the molecule is neutral, so, calling x the Nox of C:

3x + 8 = 0

3x = -8

x = -8/3

O₂:

Because is a pure compound, the Nox of O is 0.

CO₂:

The Nox of O is fix equal to -2, and the molecule is neutral, so, calling x the Nox of C:

2x -4 = 0

2x = 4

x = +2

H₂O:

The Nox of H and O are fixed, respectively, +1 and -2.

So, the carbon in C₃H₈ is oxidized because its Nox is increasing, and oxygen in O₂ is reduced because its Nox is decreasing.

Given the reaction for the nickel-cadmium battery: 2NiOOH + Cd +2H2O -&gt; 2Ni(OH)2 + Cd(OH)2 What species is oxidized during th
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Cd is oxidized during the discharge of the battery

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

2 NiOOH + Cd + 2H₂O → 2Ni(OH)₂ + Cd(OH)₂

And knowing Oxygen and hydrogen never change its charge, we must to find oxidation state of Ni and Cd before and after the reaction:

<em>Ni:</em>

In NiOOH: 2 O = -2*2 = -4 + 1H = +1, = -4 + 1 = -3. And as the molecule is neutral, Ni is 3+

In Ni(OH)₂: OH = -1. As there are 2 OH = -2. That means Ni is +2

The Ni is gaining one electron, that means is been reduced

<em>Cd:</em>

Cd before reaction is as pure solid with oxidation state = 0

Cd after the reaction is as Cd(OH)₂: 2 OH = -2. That means Cd is +2

The Cd is loosing 2 electrons, that means is the species that is oxidized.

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Protonated form: 96.87%

Unprotonated form: 3.13%

Explanation:

To find the percentage of protoned and unprotoned forms of salicylic acid we must use Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where pKa of salicylic acid is 3.49; [A⁻] is the unprotonated form and [HA]:</em>

<em />

2.0 = 3.49 + log [A⁻] / [HA]

0.03236 = [A⁻] / [HA] <em>(1)</em>

And as:

[A⁻] + [HA] = 100% <em>(2)</em>

<em></em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

0.03236 = 100 - [HA] / [HA]

0.03236 [HA] = 100 - [HA]

1.03236[HA] = 100

<h3>[HA] = 96.87%</h3>

And [A⁻]:

[A⁻] = 100 - 96.87

<h3>[A⁻] = 3.13%</h3>

<em></em>
