Answer:

Explanation:

Reduction refers to gain in electrons. Hence it is D

Oxidation occurs when the element loses electrons. Hence A is wrong

Gaseous ICl (0.20 mol) was added to a 2.0 L flask and allowed to decompose at a high temperature:

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The Kc is 1.36 (but this is not an option, may be the options are wrong, or may be I was .. Thanks!)

Explanation:

Let's think all the situation.

2 ICl(g) ⇄ I₂(g) + Cl₂(g)

Initially 0.20 - -

Initially I have only 0.20 moles of reactant, and nothing of products. In the reaction, an x amount of compound has reacted.

React x x/2 x/2

Because the ratio is 2:1, in the reaction I have the half of moles.

So in equilibrium I will have

(0.20 - x) x/2 x/2

Notice that I have the concentration in equilibrium so:

0.20 - x = 0.060

x = 0.14

So in equilibrium I have formed 0.14/2 moles of I₂ and H₂ (0.07 moles)

Finally, we have to make, the expression for Kc and remember that must to be with concentration in M (mol/L).

As we have a volume of 2L, the values must be /2

Kc = ([I₂]/2 . [H₂]/2) / ([ICl]/2)²

Kc = (0.07/2 . 0.07/2) / (0.060/2)²

Kc = 1.225x10⁻³ / 9x10⁻⁴

Kc = 1.36

The weights of all elements are always compared to oxygen.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12.

Explanation:

The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12 because the mass of carbon is 12 which is the exactly the sum of protons and neutrons.

Oxygen was also considered the standard for some time but later this stander was rejected because in natural O¹⁷ and O¹⁸ were also present and this create the two different atomic mass tables.

AMU:

Atomic mass unit is define as the 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.

C12 has six neutron and six protons in the nucleus.

This unit is used to express the masses of atoms. We know that masses of atoms are very small and we do not have any such type of balance that can measure very small quantity. So that is way we use this scale to measure small quantity. For example, according to this scale

relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.008 amu

relative atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu

relative atomic mass of uranium is 238.0289 amu

relative atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453 amu

What is the relationship between developed land, population and resource use?

givi [52]

Explanation:

While both developed and developing countries have contributed to global environmental problems, developed countries with 85% percent of the gross world product and 23% of its population account for the largest part of mineral and fossil-fuel consumption, resulting in significant environmental impacts

The concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 1 × 10–7 for basic solutions. True False

Nataly [62]

Answer : The given statement is, false.

Explanation :

Ionic product of water : It is defined as the product of the concentration of hydrogen ion and the concentration of hydroxide ion.

The mathematical expression will be,

$[H^+][OH^-]=10^{-14}$

When the concentration of hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion are equal then the solution is neutral and the value will be, $1\times 10^{-7}$ . And the pH of the solution is, 7.

When the concentration of hydrogen ion is greater than $1\times 10^{-7}$ then the solution is acidic in nature. And the pH of the solution is, less than 7.

When the concentration of hydrogen ion is less than $1\times 10^{-7}$ then the solution is basic in nature. And the pH of the solution is, greater than 7.

Hence, the given statement is false.
