Answer:

Radicals

Explanation:

A radical refers to a chemical specie that contains unpaired electrons in their dot electron diagrams.

Radicals contain an odd number of electrons. They are commonly called odd electron species.

Radicals participate in a number of important reactions. A typical example is the halogenation of alkanes in the presence of light.

Examples of radicals include; Br. , Cl. , F. etc

How many moles of electrons must be transferred to plate out 110 g of manganese (MW ~ 55g/mol) from a solution of permanganate (
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

14 mol e⁻

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced half-reaction for the reduction of permanganate to manganese

8 H⁺(aq) + 7 e⁻ + MnO₄⁻(aq) ⇒ Mn(s) + 4 H₂O(l)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 110 g of manganese

The molar mass of Mn is 55 g/mol.

110 g × 1 mol/55 g = 2 mol

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of electrons needed to produce 2 moles of Mn

According to the half-reaction, 7 moles of electrons are required to produce 1 mole of Mn.

2 mol Mn × 7 mol e⁻/1 mol Mn = 14 mol e⁻
