An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron.

1. Phosphorous reacts with bromine to form phosphorous tribromide. If 35.0 grams of bromine
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

70.6 %

Explanation:

First step, we define the reaction:

2P + 3Br₂  →  2PBr₃

We determine the moles of reactant:

35 g . 1mol / 159.8 g = 0.219 moles

We assume, the P is in excess, so the bromine is the limiting reagent.

3 moles of Br₂ can produce 2 moles of phophorous tribromide

Then, 0.219 moles may produce (0.219 . 2) /3 = 0.146 moles of PBr₃

We convert moles to mass:

0.146 mol .  270.67 g /mol = 39.5 g

That's the 100 % yield reaction, also called theoretical yield. The way to determine the % yield is:

(Yield produced / Thoeretical yield) . 100

(27.9 / 39.5) . 100 = 70.6 %

How does H2So4 break up to h+ & hso4 - ?
Katena32 [7]
H2So4 is a strong acid and a strong electrolyte which means that when this dissociates in water, the dissociation process is complete. The first dissociation is 

H2 SO4 = H + HSO4- 

This can further release H+ and dissociate SO4- instead already

A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 0.158 kg. If 2,510.0 J of heat is required to heat the substance from 32.0°C to 6
Alexxandr [17]
Specific heat capacity is the required amount of heat per unit of mass in order to raise teh temperature by one degree Celsius. It can be calculated from this equation: H = mCΔT where the H is heat required, m is mass of the substance, ΔT is the change in temperature, and C is the specific heat capacity.

H = m<span>CΔT
2501.0 = 0.158 (C) (61.0 - 32.0)

C = 545.8 J/kg</span>·°C
