Answer:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Explanation:
Let us consider the complete redox reaction:
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
This is a redox reaction because, both oxidation and reduction is simultaneously taking place.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
Here Zn(s) is undergoing oxidation from OS 0 to +2
And H in HCl (aq) is undergoing reduction from OS +1 to 0.
Therefore, for this reaction;
Oxidation Half equation is:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Reduction Half equation is:
2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂(g)
Answer:
B is the answer
Explanation:
Because it a molecular mass of one
Answer:
The edge length of a face-centered cubic unit cell is 435.6 pm.
Explanation:
In a face-centered cubic unit cell, each of the eight corners is occupied by one atom and each of the six faces is occupied by a single atom.
Hence, the number of atoms in an FCC unit cell is:
In a face-centered cubic unit cell, to find the edge length we need to use Pythagorean Theorem:
(1)
Where:
a: is the edge length
R: is the radius of each atom = 154 pm
By solving equation (1) for "a" we have:
Therefore, the edge length of a face-centered cubic unit cell is 435.6 pm.
I hope it helps you!
Answer:
36.55kJ/mol
Explanation:
The heat of solution is the change in heat when the KNO3 dissolves in water:
KNO3(aq) → K+(aq) + NO3-(aq)
As the temperature decreases, the reaction is endothermic and the molar heat of solution is positive.
To solve the molar heat we need to find the moles of KNO3 dissolved and the change in heat as follows:
<em>Moles KNO3 -Molar mass: 101.1032g/mol-</em>
10.6g * (1mol/101.1032g) = 0.1048 moles KNO3
<em>Change in heat:</em>
q = m*S*ΔT
<em>Where q is heat in J,</em>
<em>m is the mass of the solution: 10.6g + 251.0g = 261.6g</em>
S is specififc heat of solution: 4.184J/g°C -Assuming is the same than pure water-
And ΔT is change in temperature: 25°C - 21.5°C = 3.5°C
q = 261.6g*4.184J/g°C*3.5°C
q = 3830.87J
<em>Molar heat of solution:</em>
3830.87J/0.1048 moles KNO3 =
36554J/mol =
<h3>36.55kJ/mol</h3>
