Answer:
NO2- is the reducing agent.
Cr2O7_2- is the oxidizing agent.
H+ is neither
Explanation:
Reduction is the gain in electron. A chemical specie that undergoes reduction is called the oxidizing agent.
Oxidation is simply the loss in electrons. A chemical specie that undergoes oxidation is called the reducing agent.
Let us look at the species.
The first specie is the NO2-. In this specie, the oxidation number of nitrogen changed from +3 to +5 in NO3-. Thus we can see that there is more loss of electron to have caused an increase in the oxidation number positively. This shows an oxidation. Hence, NO2- is the reducing agent.
Let us look at the chromium. We can see that the oxidation number of chromium changed from +7 to +3.
Now we can see that it is a decrease and hence, it is a gain of electron and thus it is reduction. This means the first chromium specie is the oxidizing agent.
The hydrogen ion is simply placed there to balance the ions and hence it is neither the oxidizing nor the reducing agent.
Ethanoic (Acetic) acid is a weak acid and do not dissociate fully. Therefore its equilibrium state has to be considered here.
In this case pH value of the solution is necessary to calculate the concentration but it's not given here so pH = 2.88 (looked it up)
pH = 2.88 ==>
=
= 0.001
The change in Concentration Δ
= 0.001
CH3COOH H+ CH3COOH
Initial
0 0
Change
-0.001 +0.001 +0.001
Equilibrium
- 0.001 0.001 0.001
Since the
value is so small, the assumption
can be made.
Solve for x to get the required concentration.
note: 1.)Since you need the answer in 2SF don&t round up values in the middle of the calculation like I've done here.
2.) The ICE (Initial, Change, Equilibrium) table may come in handy if you are new to problems of this kind
Hope this helps!
Answer:
If you're indoors, stay inside. If you're outside, stay outside. If you're indoors, stand against a wall near the center of the building, stand in a doorway, or crawl under heavy furniture (a desk or table). Stay away from windows and outside doors.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
For a reaction that proceeds by E1 mechanism, the rate determining step involves the formation of the carbocation.
The rate of formation of this carbocation depends only on the concentration of the t-butyl bromide since it is the only specie that enters into the rate equation.
Hence, when the concentration of t-butyl bromide is tripled, the rate of reaction is tripled.
Methanol does not enter into the rate equation hence doubling its concentration does not affect the rate of reaction.
The word elliptical refers to regular ovals.
