<span>The problem has to do with oxidation states of the matter. The oxidation state of oxygen will always be -2 with the exception of peroxides which will have a state of -1. The overall balanced state of chemical compounds will be 0, so the oxidation state of Mn in MnO2 will be +4. The oxidation state of MnO4- will then be +7 to balance out to the negative one charge. The state change from +4 to +7 is 3, thus three electrons have to be lost in order for this to happen; a loss of a charge of -3 results in an increase of charge of 3. Oxidation is always the process of 'losing' electrons.

Answer:
The calorimeter constant is = 447 J/°C
Explanation:
The heat absorbed or released (Q) by water can be calculated with the following expression:
Q = c × m × ΔT
where,
c is the specific heat
m is the mass
ΔT is the change in temperature
The water that is initially in the calorimeter (w₁) absorbs heat while the water that is added (w₂) later releases heat. The calorimeter also absorbs heat.
The heat absorbed by the calorimeter (Q) can be calculated with the following expression:
Q = C × ΔT
where,
C is the calorimeter constant
The density of water is 1.00 g/mL so 50.0 mL = 50.0 g. The sum of the heat absorbed and the heat released is equal to zero (conservation of energy).
Qabs + Qrel = 0
Qabs = - Qrel
Qcal + Qw₁ = - Qw₂
Qcal = - (Qw₂ + Qw₁)
Ccal . ΔTcal = - (cw . mw₁ . ΔTw₁ + cw . mw₂ . ΔTw₂)
Ccal . (30.31°C - 22.6°C) = - [(4.184 J/g.°C) × 50.0 g × (30.31°C - 22.6°C) + (4.184 J/g.°C) × 50.0 g × (30.31°C - 54.5°C)]
Ccal = 447 J/°C
Answer:
MnO4⁻ (aq) + 8H⁺ (aq) + 5Fe³⁺ (aq) →Mn(aq)²⁺ + 4H2O (l) + 5Fe²⁺(aq)
Explanation:
a)
MnO4⁻ (aq) + 8H⁺ (aq) + 5e⁻ → Mn(aq)²⁺ + 4H2O (l)
b)
5Fe³⁺ (aq) +5e⁻ → 5Fe²⁺(aq)
c)
MnO4⁻ (aq) + 8H⁺ (aq) + 5Fe³⁺ (aq) →Mn(aq)²⁺ + 4H2O (l) + 5Fe²⁺(aq)
The full question asks to decide whether the gas was a specific gas. That part is missing in your question. You need to decide whether the gas in the flask is pure helium.
To decide it you can find the molar mass of the gas in the flask, using the ideal gas equation pV = nRT, and then compare with the molar mass of the He.
From pV = nRT you can find n, after that using the mass of gass in the flask you use MM = mass/moles.
1) From pV = nRT, n = pV / RT
Data:
V = 118 ml = 0.118 liter
R = 0.082 atm*liter/mol*K
p = 768 torr * 1 atm / 760 torr = 1.0105 atm
T = 35 + 273.15 = 308.15 K
n = 1.015 atm * 0.118 liter / [ 0.082 atm*liter/K*mol * 308.15K] =0.00472 mol
mass of gas = mass of the fask with the gas - mass of the flasl evacuated = 97.171 g - 97.129 g = 0.042
=> MM = mass/n = 0.042 / 0.00472 = 8.90 g/mol
Now from a periodic table or a table you get that the molar mass of He is 4g/mol
So the numbers say that this gas is not pure helium , because its molar mass is more than double of the molar mass of helium gas.
