Answer:
2NaCl(l) => 2Na(s) + Cl₂(g)
Explanation:
Electrolysis of melt NaCl to form sodium (Na) metal and chlorine (Cl₂) gas.
This is a class of reaction called 'Decomposition Rxns'. For what it's worth, there are 6 distinct compound types that undergo breakdown by decomposition. The acronym C O A C H E can help remember them.
C - Carbonates => CaCO₃(s) => CaO + CO₂
O - Oxides of Metals => 2Fe₂O₃(s) => 4Fe°(s) + 3O₂(g)
A - Acids (Oxoacids) => H₂CO₃(aq) => CO₂(g) + H₂O(l)
C - Chlorates, Bromates & Iodates => 2KClO₃(s) => 2KCl(s) + 3O₂(g)
H - Hydroxides => Ca(OH)₂(s) => CaO(s) + H₂O(l)
E - Electrolysis => see above electrolysis of NaCl(l)
Answer:
The balanced half-reaction for the reduction of dichromate ion to chromium ion in acidic aqueous solution:
Explanation:
The reaction :
Balancing of reaction in an acidic medium:
Step 1: Balance the atoms in the reaction:
Step 2: Balance oxygen atom by adding water on the side where no oxygen or less oxygen atom is present;
Step 3: Balance the hydrogen atom by adding hydrogen ions on the side where water is absent:
Step 4: Now balance charge by adding electrons on the side where more positive charge is present
The balanced half-reaction for the reduction of dichromate ion to chromium ion in acidic aqueous solution:
C) family
The subgroup that comes after genus is
Answer:
455.4 g
Explanation:
Data given:
no. of moles of (NH₄)₂SO₄= 3.45 mol
mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = ?
Solution
Formula will be used
no.of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
Rearrange the above equation for mass
mass in grams = no. of moles x molar mass . . . . . . . . (1)
molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄
molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2(14 + 4(1)) + 32 + 4(16)
molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2 (14 +4) + 32 + 64
molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2 (18) + 32 + 64
molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 36 + 32 + 64 = 132 g/mol
Put values in equation 1
mass in grams = 3.45 mole x 132 g/mol
mass in grams = 455.4 g
So,
mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 455.4 g
A dilute acid solution is prepared by adding the concentrated acid to water. If you do the reverse, i.e. add water to the acid it is possible that a small amount water could react with acid and boil and explode thus splashing the acid onto you or someone else near the activity.
