For a particular redox reaction, NO-2 is oxidized to NO-3 and Ag+ is reduced to Ag . Complete and balance the equation for this

Salsk061 [2.6K]

The following are the steps to complete and balnce the equation for the given reaction

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given, NO2– is oxidized to NO3– and Ag is reduced to Ag

NO2– + Ag+ -----> NO3– + Ag(s)

Step 1) Assign the oxidation state to each element reaction

NO2– + Ag+ -----> NO3– + Ag(s)

N= +3 N = +5

O = -2 O = -2

Ag = +1 Ag = 0

NO2– -----> NO3– ………oxidation half reaction

Ag+ -----> Ag(s) ……….reduction half reaction

Step 2) Balance the element other than O and H

NO2– -----> NO3–

Ag+ -----> Ag(s)

Step 3) Balance the O by adding 1 H2O for 1 O

NO2– + H2O -----> NO3–

Ag+ -----> Ag(s)

Step 4) Balance the H by adding H+

NO2– + H2O -----> NO3– + 2H+

Ag+ -----> Ag(s)

Step 5) Balance the charge by adding electron

NO2– + H2O -----> NO3– + 2H+ + 2e-

Ag+ + 1e------> Ag(s)

Step 6) Balance the electron in both half reaction

NO2– + H2O -----> NO3– + 2H+ + 2e-

2 Ag+ + 2e------> 2 Ag(s)

An inexpensive and accurate method of measuring the quantity of electricity flowing through a circuit is to pass the current thr

Paha777 [63]

Total of 127.013 C of charge is passed

Given

weight of Ag solution before current has passed = 1.7854 g

weight of Ag solution after current has passed = 1.8016 g

Molecular mass of Ag = 107.86 g

Faraday's Constant = 96485

First of all we have to apply Faraday's First Law of Electrolysis i.e

m = ZQ

where

Z is propotionality constant (g/C)

Q is charge (C)

Hence,

Z = Atomic mass of substance/ Faraday's Constant

= $\frac{107.86 g}{96485 C}$

= 0.0011178 g/C

Now ,

change in mass before and after the passing of current (Δm)

Δm = 1.8016g-1.7854g

= 0.0162g

Now amount of coulombs passed = $\frac{0.142g}{0.0011178 g/C }$

amount of coulombs passed = 127.03524 C

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that amount of coulombs have passed is 127.03524 C

A sample of oxygen gas occupies a volume of 2.,0cm3 at pressure of 700K pa. what will be pressure of the same sample occupies a

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The pressure will be 933.33 Kpa

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume V₁ = 200 cm³ (note, there is a mistake in the volume. It is supposed to be 200 cm³)

Pressure P₁ = 700 Kpa

Pressure P₂ = ??? (unknown)

Volume V₂ = 150 cm³

Temperature = constant

Using Boyle's law:

PV = constant

i.e.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

700 Kpa × 200 cm³ = P₂ × 150 cm³

P₂ = (700 Kpa × 200 cm³)/150 cm³

P₂ = 933.33 Kpa
