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>

Solution X is a strong base with a pH of 12. Solution X is mixed with solution Y,and the pH of the resulting mixture is 8.Based
myrzilka [38]

The strong Base with a pH of 12 is reduced by 4 units upon being added with solution Y. If you added a strong acid to the strong base, all ions are present in the solution, yes? So every OH- is neutralised by every H+ for example, meaning the resultant pH should be 7. The resultant pH is only 8 however, so solution Y must be a <em>weak acid </em>only!

scoray [572]
During a combustion reaction the carbon in a hydrocarbon compound is paired with Oxygen (O2) in the air to form Carbon-Dioxide (CO2), whilst the Hydrogen too pairs with Oxygen to form water vapour (H2O). Heat is also produced during this reaction.

Aluminum metal can be recycled from scrap metal by melting the metal to evaporate impurities. a. Calculate the amount of heat ne
fenix001 [56]

The amount of heat required to purify the Al is 25.94 * 10^3 J

<h3>What is heat capacity?</h3>

The term heat capacity refers to the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by 1K. The aluminum was heated from 298 K to 933 K then it melted.

The total heat required is;

H = ncdT + nL

H = (1 * 24 * (933 - 298)) + (1 * 10.7 * 10^3)

H = 15.24 * 10^3  J + 10.7 * 10^3 J

H = 25.94 * 10^3 J
