Answer:
The thermodynamic parameter which is of significance in this case is the 'Reduction Potential' for molecular bromine which is ~ +1.1 v vs N.H.E. In other words, it is a strong oxidizing agent. The bromine will oxidize sulfur compounds in which the valence of sulfur is lower than six to sulfate.
There are many possible reactions. Here is one possible example:
Na2 S2O3 + 4Br2 + 5 H2O = 2NaHSO4 + 8 HBr
11 electrons , 11 protons , 12 neutrons.
Answer: A cold compress used by athletes is an endothermic reaction.
Explanation:
A pack of cold compress used by athletes contains water that holds another bag or tube inside it which is filled with ammonium nitrate fertilizer.
So, on hitting the cold compress the tube breaks down due to which fertilizer gets mixed with water. This mixture absorbs the heat when placed on the area of body having pain, strain or bump.
As a result, we tend to feel cold at the affected area of our body.
Thus, we can conclude that a cold compress used by athletes is an endothermic reaction.
Chlorine atom has 17 electrons. It<span> has seven </span>valence electrons<span>. These seven electrons make </span>chlorine<span> a very reactive element. A </span>valence electron<span> is an </span>electron<span> that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond. Hope this helps.</span>
