In acidic solution, the sulfate ion can be used to react with a number of metal ions. One such reaction is SO42−(aq)+Sn2+(aq)→H2
allsm [11]

Answer:

The final balanced equation is :

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

Explanation:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

Balancing in acidic medium:

First we will determine the oxidation and reduction reaction from the givne reaction :

Oxidation:

Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)

Balance the charge by adding 2 electrons on product side:

Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)+2e^-....[1]

Reduction :

SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)

Balance O by adding water on required side:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)

Now, balance H by adding H^+ on the required side:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)

At last balance the charge by adding electrons on the side where positive charge is more:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)..[2]

Adding [1] and [2]:

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

The final balanced equation is :

SO_4^{2-}(aq)+4H^+(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow H_2SO_3(aq)+H_2O(l)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

A runner travels at a constant speed of 4 m/s. What happens to the velocity of the runner when the runner changes direction?
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

4m/s in the direction of the turn

Explanation:

The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference.

Assuming the runner stays the same speed as he turns, his velocity will be 4m/s in the speed he turns.

The substance water always has a mass ratio of 11% H to 89% O. If 5.00g of a substance containing H and O was decomposed into .2
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

                    No the substance is not water.

Explanation:

                   The balance chemical equation for the decomposition of water is as follow;

                                           2 H₂O = 2 H₂ + O₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate moles of H₂O;</u>

               Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

               Moles  =  5.0 g / 18.01 g/mol

               Moles  =  0.277 moles of H₂O

Step 2: <u>Calculate Moles of O₂ and H₂ produced by 0.277 moles of H₂O:</u>

According to equation,

                        2 moles of H₂O produced  =  1 mole of O₂

So,

                  0.277 moles of H₂O will produce  =  X moles of O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  0.277 mol × 1 mol / 2 mol

                     X =  0.138 moles of O₂

Also,

According to equation,

                        2 moles of H₂O produced  =  2 mole of H₂

So,

                  0.277 moles of H₂O will produce  =  X moles of H₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  0.277 mol × 2 mol / 2 mol

                     X =  0.227 moles of H₂

Step 3: <u>Calculate Mass of O₂ and H₂ as;</u>

For O₂:

                 Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                 Mass  =  0.138 mol × 31.99 g/mol

                 Mass  =  4.44 g of O₂

For H₂:

                 Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                 Mass  =  0.227 mol × 2.01 g/mol

                 Mass  =  0.559 g of H₂

Conclusion:

                   From conclusion it is proved that the amount of H₂ produced by decomposition of 5 g of water should be 0.559 g while in statement it is less i.e. 0.290 g.
