B. The following reaction takes place in a basic solution. (7 points)
Natali5045456 [20]

<u>Answer:</u> The final equation has hydroxide ions which indicate that the reaction has occurred in a basic medium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction take place simultaneously.

The oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species loses electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species increases.

A reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species gains electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species decreases.

The given redox reaction follows:

MnO_4^-(aq)+NO_2^-(aq)\rightarrow MnO_2(s)+NO_3^-(aq)

To balance the given redox reaction in basic medium, there are few steps to be followed:

  • Writing the given oxidation and reduction half-reactions for the given equation with the correct number of electrons

Oxidation half-reaction: NO_2^-+2OH^-\rightarrow NO_3^-+H_2O+2e^-

Reduction half-reaction: MnO_4^-+2H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2+4OH^-

  • Multiply each half-reaction by the correct number in order to balance charges for the two half-reactions

Oxidation half-reaction: NO_2^-+2OH^-\rightarrow NO_3^-+H_2O+2e^-         ( × 3)

Reduction half-reaction: MnO_4^-+2H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2+4OH^-             ( × 2)

The half-reactions now become:

Oxidation half-reaction: 3NO_2^-+6OH^-\rightarrow 3NO_3^-+3H_2O+6e^-

Reduction half-reaction: 2MnO_4^-+4H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow 2MnO_2+8OH^-

  • Add the equations and simplify to get a balanced equation

Overall redox reaction: 3NO_2^-+2MnO_4^-+H_2O\rightarrow 3NO_3^-+2MnO_2+2OH^-

As we can see that in the overall redox reaction, hydroxide ions are released in the solution. Thus, making it a basic solution

Molecules that have the same chemical formula (same numbers of each atom) but different three-dimensional shapes are called ____
katen-ka-za [31]

The given blank can be filled with isomers.  

The isomers in chemistry refers to the molecules or ions with similar formulas, but different compositions. The isomers refer to the molecules that exhibit the same chemical formula, however, distinct three-dimensional shapes. Though isomers do not always share identical properties. The two prime forms of isomerism are stereoisomerism or spatial isomerism and structural isomerism or constitutional isomerism.
