Answer:
1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻
2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)
Explanation:
Main reaction: 2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq)
In the oxidation half reaction, the oxidation number increases:
Mn changes from 0, in the ground state to Mn²⁺.
The reduction half reaction occurs where the element decrease the oxidation number, because it is gaining electrons.
Silver changes from Ag⁺ to Ag.
1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻
2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)
To balance the hole reaction, we need to multiply by 2, the second half reaction:
Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻
(Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)) . 2
2Ag⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s)
Now we sum, and we can cancel the electrons:
2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻
Answer:
% composition O = 19.9%
% composition Cu = 80.1%
Explanation:
Given data:
Total mass of compound = 3.12 g
Mass of copper = 2.50 g
Mass of oxygen = 3.12 - 2.50 = 0.62 g
% composition = ?
Solution:
Formula:
<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>
% composition Cu = (2.50 g / 3.12 g)×100
% composition Cu = 0.80 ×100
% composition Cu = 80.1%
For oxygen:
<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>
% composition O = (0.62 g / 3.12 g)×100
% composition O = 0.199 ×100
% composition O = 19.9%
