Answer:
Explanation:
1. Write the skeleton equation for the half-reaction
NO₃⁻ ⟶ N₂O
2. Balance all atoms other than H and O
2NO₃⁻ ⟶ N₂O
3. Balance O by adding H₂O molecules to the deficient side.
2NO₃⁻ ⟶ N₂O + 5H₂O
4. Balance H by adding H⁺ ions to the deficient side.
2NO₃⁻ + 10H⁺ ⟶ N₂O + 5H₂O
5. Balance charge by adding electrons to the deficient side.
2NO₃⁻ + 10H⁺ + 8e⁻ ⟶ N₂O + 5H₂O
The amount of charge required to reduce 2 mol of NO₃⁻ is 8 F

<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[RxN - Balanced] C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2C₂H₅OH + 2CO₂
[Given] 500. g C₆H₁₂O₆ (Glucose)
[Solve] moles C₂H₅OH (Ethanol)
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
[RxN] 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2 mol C₂H₅OH
[PT] Molar mass of C - 12.01 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ - 6(12.01) + 12(1.01) + 6(16.00) = 180.18 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>
