<span>The atoms or molecules attain enough kinetic energy to overcome any intermolecular attractions they have. Since there are no longer any attractive forces between the particles, they are free to drift away into space. The same sort of thing happens in ordinary evaporation, but only at the surface. </span>

For the reaction 2hno3 + mg(oh)2 → mg(no3)2 + 2h2o, how many moles of magnesium nitrate are produced from 8.00 moles of nitric a
Sladkaya [172]
You would get four moles of magnesium nitrate :) you would have to
“ ?molesmg(oh)2 = 8molmg(no3)2 x molmg(oh)2 / 2molhno3 = 4 moles of magnesium nitrate :))) hopefully this helps! <3

Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 4 points) (04.05 LC) What is the oxidation number of manganese in MnO41−? +3 +4 +7 +8 Question
Elan Coil [88]

1) Answer is: the oxidation number of manganese in MnO₄⁻ is +7.

Permanganate anion has negative charge 1-.

Oxygen (O) in permanganate anion has oxidation number -2.

x + 4 · (-2) = -1.

x - 8 = -1.

x = +7; oxidation nzmber of manganese.

Oxidation number shows the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound.

2) Answer is: Zn + Cu2+ → Zn2+ + Cu.

In this chemical reaction, there is transfer of electrons from zinc (Zn) to copper (Cu). Zinc change oxidation number from 0 to +2 (lost electrons) and copper change oxidation number from +2 to 0 (gain electrons).

Oxidation half reaction: Zn⁰ → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻.

Reduction half reaction: Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Cu⁰.

In other chemical reactions, there is no change of oxidation number of elements.

3) Answer is: Br2 is the oxidizing agent because its oxidation number decreases.

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Al + 3Br₂ → 2AlBr₃.

In this chemical reaction, aluminium change oxidation number from 0 to +3 (lose electrons) and bromine change oxidation number from 0 to -1 (gain electrons, reduced).

Oxidizing agent is a substance that has the ability to oxidize other substances, to cause them to lose electrons.

In oxido-reduction reaction, at least one element lose and one element gain electrons.

4) Answer is: Br2 + 2Cl− → Cl2 + 2Br⁻.

Oxidation is increase of oxidation number.

In this balanced chemical reaction, chlorine change oxidation number from -1 (Cl⁻) to oxidation number 0 (Cl₂).

Oxidation half reaction: 2Cl⁻ → Cl₂⁰ + 2e⁻.

Reduction half reaction: Br₂ + 2e⁻ → 2Br⁻.

In other chemical reactions, chlorine is reduced.

5) Answer is: Observation 1 is a result of copper ions moving into the solution.

The reactivity series is a series of metals from highest to lowest reactivity. Metal higher in the reactivity series will displace another.

Copper (Cu) is higher in activity series than silver (Ag), so copper lose electron and silver gain electrons.

Copper is oxidized (increase of oxidation number) and silver is reduced.

A chemist adds 0.50L of a 0.485 M copper(II) sulfate CuSO4 solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the millimoles of copper(II)
den301095 [7]

Explanation:

It is given that volume is 0.50 L and molarity is 0.485 M. Hence, number of millimoles will be calculated as follows.

               Number of millimoles = Molarity × Volume

As there are 1000 mL in 1 L. So, 0.50 L equals 500 mL.

Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

             Number of millimoles = Molarity × Volume

                                                 = 0.485 M × 500 mL      

                                                 = 242.5

Thus, we can conclude that 242.5 millimoles of copper(II) sulfate has been added by the chemist to the flask.
