Answer:

1 = oxidation

2 = reduction

Explanation:

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

2I- ----> I₂+ 2e⁻

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

F + e⁻ ----> F⁻

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄ → Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

A gas mixture contains twice as many moles of o2 as n2. addition of 0.200 mol of argon to this mixture increases the pressure fr

pantera1 [17]

Number of moles of oxygen = x

number of moles of nitrogen = y

x = 2y

initial pressure, p1 = 0.8 atm

final pressure, p2 = 1.10 atm

At constant volume and temperature p1 / n1 = p2 / n2

=> p1 / p2 = n1 / n2

n1 = x + y = 2y + y = 3y

n2 = 0.2 + 3y

=> p1 / p2 = 3y / (0.2 + 3y)

=> 0.8 / 1.10 = 3y / (0.2 + 3y)

=> 0.8 (0.2 + 3y) = 1.10 (3y)

0.16 + 2.4y = 3.3y

=> 3.3y - 2.4y = 0.16

=> 0.9y = 0.16

=> y = 0.16 / 0.9

=. x = 2*0.16/0.9 = 0.356

Answer: 0.356 moles O2

How can an experiment support or fail support a hypothesis

melomori [17]

If a hypothesis is stated and outcome of the experiment is what was predicted, then it supports the hypothesis. if the experiment does not support the hypothesis, then the outcome was not what was predicted.

What is the mass in milligrams of 4.30 moles of sodium?use âeâ for âÃ10" and use significant figures?

Elis [28]

First, calculate the mass of sodium in g with the help of molar mass and number of moles.

Number of moles = $\frac{given mass in g}{molar mass}$ (1)
