Write a half-reaction for the oxidation of the manganese in MnCO3(s) to MnO2(s) in neutral groundwater where the carbonate-conta

ining species in the product is HCO3–(aq). Add H2O and H+ to balance the H and O atoms in the equation. Do not add electrons; you may leave the half-reaction unbalanced with respect to charge.

Answer:MnCO3+2H2O----->MnO2+ HCO3-+2e-+3H+

Explanation:The equation to be balanced is

MnCO3 ------> MnO2+HCO3-

The oxidation number of Mn changes from +2 in MnCO3 to +4 in MnO2

Therefore two electrons must be added to the right as shown below:

MnCO3 -------> MnO2+ HCO3-+ 2e-Now,there is one negative charge HCO3- and 1 negative charge on the two electrons making a total of -3 charges on the right. There is zero charge on the left.

To balance the equation,add3H+on the right,to cancel out the charges.

MnCO3 --------> MnO2+HCO3-+2e-+3H+

Adding H2O to balance Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms:

MnCO3+2H2O ------->MnO2+HCO3-+2e-+3H+

Is a solution a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture
Alja [10]

Answer:

Solutions are always homogeneous.

Explanation:

Solution:

Solution are considered homogeneous because in solution the ratio of solute and solvent remain the same throughout the solution. Both solute and solvent are chemically combined and form a new substance.

In solution the particles of solute can not be seen through naked eye.

When the light is passed through the solution it can not scattered.

Example:

When salt is dissolve in water it makes a solution.

The solution also exist in gaseous form. For example oxygen and many other gases dissolved in nitrogen also form a solution.

Mixture:

In mixture substance are physically combined. In mixture every every individual particle retain their properties.

It can be consist of solid, liquid and gas.

Examples:

Sand in water is also a mixture.

Oil in water form mixture.
