5.5 grams of reactants. According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, mass isn’t created or lost through any chemical changes, so the total mass should remain constant from the initial reactants to the final products.

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of reactants will be equal to the mass of the products. The mass of products and reactants will only differ during a nuckear reaction
Changing of the physical state of water is not a nuclear reaction. So becoz of that the mass will remain constant without any change.

How would you prepare 3.5 L of a 0.9M solution of KCl?
PolarNik [594]
V=3,5L\\
Cm=0,9M\\
M_{KCl}=74\frac{g}{mol}\\\\
C_{m}=\frac{n}{V}\\\\
n=\frac{m}{M}\\\\
C_{m}=\frac{m}{MV} \ \ \ \Rightarrow  \ \ \ m=C_{m}MV\\\\
m=0,9\grac{mol}{L}*74\frac{g}{mol}*3,5L=233,1g

B. Add 233 g of KCl to a 3.5 L container; then add enough water to dissolve the KCl and fill the container to the 3.5 L mark.

the quantity of antimony in an ore can be determined by an oxidation-reduction titration with an oxidizing agent. The ore is dis
Basile [38]

Answer:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + 6H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 3H₂O(l)

Explanation:

At a redox equation, one substance is being oxidized (losing electrons), and the other is being reduced (gaining electrons). In the given reaction:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + Sb³⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + Sb⁵⁺(aq)

When it's at an acidic solution, it must be ions H⁺ on the reactant, which will form water with the oxygen, so the complete reaction is:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + Sb³⁺(aq) + H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + Sb⁵⁺(aq) + H₂O(l)

As we can see, the antimony is being oxidized (go from +3 to +5), and the Bromo is being reduced. The oxidation number of brome in the reactant, knowing that the oxidation number of O is -2, is:

x + 3*(-2) = -1

x = +5

So, it's going from +5 to -1, and the half-reactions are:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 6e⁻ → Br⁻(aq)

Sb³⁺(aq) → Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

The number of electrons must be the same, so the second equation must be multiplied by 3:

3Sb³⁺(aq) → 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 6e⁻

Thus, the equation will be:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + H₂O(l)

Now, we verify the amount of the elements, which must be equal on both sides. So, we multiply H₂O by 3, and H⁺ by 6, and the balanced reaction will be:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + 6H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 3H₂O(l)
