What best describes the bonding in a carbon dioxide molecule?

In the following redox reaction which is the oxidizing agent and which is the reducing agent? AlCl3 + Na NaCl + Al

horrorfan [7]

Answer : Al

Explanation :

- For a given redox reaction there must be an oxidizing agent/(s) and a reducing agent/(s).

- the oxidizing agent is the substance that undergoes reduction process (gaining electrons or loss of oxygen atoms), meanwhile, the reducing agent is the substance that undergoes oxidation process (loss of electrons or gaining of oxygen atoms).

- In the reaction above, the oxidation number of (Al) in AlCl3 is (3+). However, the oxidation number of (Al) in the products is zero because it exists as a single element.

Therefore, changing from (3+) to zero means gaining of (3) electrons to neutralize the previously existing (3) protons on (Al) in AlCl3.

So Al is the oxidizing agent..

Here is a multiple choice I need help on:

Ivenika [448]

I'm pretty sure it's B because carbon atoms are in all living organisms. They can also be bonded in different varations.

While preforming an experiment involving colors and heat,Susan noticed that the black paper was warmer than the white piece of p

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Blackbody radiation

Explanation:

This phenomenon described by Susan is know as black body radiation. Different materials by color reacts to incident radiation on them in diverse manner.

A white surface will reflect all the wavelength of light incident on it.
A black surface will absorb all the wavelength of light on it.

This absorption causes the black surface to be hotter compared to other surfaces.

Imagine mixing 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt with 2 cups of ammonia. How much precipitate would be produced? Describe the amount of

barxatty [35]

The amount of precipitate produced will be proportional to the amount of NH₃ reacted with water to produce NH₄OH.

<h3>What is precipitate?</h3>

Precipitates are the crystal type formation, when the solute is no more dissolving in the solvent.

Imagine mixing 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt with 2 cups of ammonia, the reaction is

2NH₃ + MgSO₄ + 2H₂O → Mg(OH)₂ + (NH₄)₂SO₄

The amount of precipitate produced will be proportional to the amount of NH₃ reacted with water to produce NH₄OH.

Quinine, an antimalarial drug, is 8.63% nitrogen. There are two nitrogen atoms per molecule. What is the molecular weight of qui

Furkat [3]

Answer:

324.18 g/mol

Explanation:

Let the molecular mass of the antimalarial drug, Quinine is x g/mol

According to question,

Nitrogen present in the drug is 8.63% of x

So, mass of nitrogen = $\frac {8.63}{100}\times x$

Also, according to the question,

2 atoms are present in 1 molecule of the drug.

Mass of nitrogen = 14.01 amu = 14.01 g/mol (grams for 1 mole)

So, mass of nitrogen = 14.01×2 = 28.02

These 2 must be equal so,

$\frac {8.63}{100}\times x=28.02$

solving for x, we get:
