Answer:

6Br⁻ + XeO₃ + 6H⁺ → 3Br₂ + Xe + 3H₂O  

Explanation:

First, we need to write the half-reactions:

2Br⁻ → Br₂ + 2e⁻ Oxidation -Balanced yet-

XeO₃ →  Xe Reduction

To balance the reduction in acidic aqueous solution we need to add waters in the other side of the reaction as oxygens are present:

XeO₃ →  Xe + 3H₂O

And H⁺ as hydrogens from water we have:

XeO₃ + 6H⁺ →  Xe + 3H₂O

To balance the charge:

<h3>XeO₃ + 6H⁺ + 6e⁻ →  Xe + 3H₂O  Reduction -Balanced-</h3><h3 />

To cancel out the electrons of both half-reaction we need to multiply oxidation 3 times:

6Br⁻ → 3Br₂ + 6e⁻

XeO₃ + 6H⁺ + 6e⁻ →  Xe + 3H₂O  

And the balanced reaction in acidic aqueous solution is the sum of both half-reactions:

<h3>6Br⁻ + XeO₃ + 6H⁺ → 3Br₂ + Xe + 3H₂O  </h3>

<span>Group 1 can be characterized as atoms that have 1 electron in their valence shell. This is valuable when dealing with these questions, because the loss or gain of valence electrons is what defines ionic relationships. When group 1 elements form ionic bonds with other atoms, they are extremely likely to lose their valence electron, since the nucleus has a weaker pull on it than, say, a chlorine atom has on its 7 valence electrons. The weaker pull between the nucleus and the valence electron of group 1 elements means that the radius is high, since the electron is more free to move with less pull on it. This also means that the first ionization energy is low, since it takes relatively little energy for that electron to be pulled away to another atom.</span>

3. A 31.2-g piece of silver (s = 0.237 J/(g · °C)), initially at 277.2°C, is added to 185.8 g of a liquid, initially at 24.4°C,
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Cp_{liquid}=2.54\frac{J}{g\°C}

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since silver is initially hot as it cools down, the heat it loses is gained by the liquid, which can be thermodynamically represented by:

Q_{Ag}=-Q_{liquid}

That in terms of the heat capacities, masses and temperature changes turns out:

m_{Ag}Cp_{Ag}(T_2-T_{Ag})=-m_{liquid}Cp_{liquid}(T_2-T_{liquid})

Since no phase change is happening. Thus, solving for the heat capacity of the liquid we obtain:

Cp_{liquid}=\frac{m_{Ag}Cp_{Ag}(T_2-T_{Ag})}{-m_{liquid}(T_2-T_{liquid})} \\\\Cp_{liquid}=\frac{31.2g*0.237\frac{J}{g\°C}*(28.3-227.2)\°C}{185.8g*(28.3-24.4)\°C}\\ \\Cp_{liquid}=2.54\frac{J}{g\°C}

Best regards.

Annie has a soccer ball and a kickball she kicks each ball with the same force the soccer ball accelerates at 3 m/s to the secon
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Because of less weight kick ball has more acceleration.

Explanation:

Acceleration of kick ball:

5 m/s

Acceleration of soccer ball:

3 m/s

Newton's second law:

According to newton's second law the acceleration of object depends upon two variables.

1) Mass of object

2) Force acting on it

Mathematical expression:

a = f/m

a = acceleration

f = force

m = mass

The force on balls are same thus the acceleration is depend upon the masses of balls.

The soccer ball has more weight that's why its acceleration is less while kick ball is lighter and thus its acceleration will more.
