Identify which one is the reducing agent in this reaction

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Na.

Explanation:

The oxidation-reduction reaction contains a reductant and an oxidant (oxidizing agent).

An oxidizing agent, or oxidant, gains electrons and is reduced in a chemical reaction. Also known as the electron acceptor, the oxidizing agent is normally in one of its higher possible oxidation states because it will gain electrons and be reduced.

A reducing agent (also called a reductant or reducer) is an element (such as calcium) or compound that loses (or "donates") an electron to another chemical species in a redox chemical reaction.

For the reaction:

2Na + S → Na₂S.

Na is oxidized to Na⁺ in (Na₂S) (loses 1 electron). "reducing agent".

S is reduced to S²⁻ in (Na₂S) (gains 2 electrons). "oxidizing agent".

A substance is analyzed and found to contain 85.7% carbon and 14.3% hydrogen by weight. A gaseous sample of the substance is fou

atroni [7]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the compound is CH2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A substance contains 85.7 % carbon and 14.3 % hydrogen.

The substance has a density of 1.87 g/L

1 mol occupies 22.4 L

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1.01 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate molar mass of the substance

Since 1 mol occupies 22.4 L;

1 mol of this substance = 1.87g/L *22.4 = 41.888 grams

This means the molar mass of the substance is 41.888 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate mass of carbon:

85.8 % is carbon

this means 41.888 * 0.858 = 35.94 grams

Step 4: Calculate moles of carbon

moles C = mass C/ Molar mass C

Moles C = 35.94 grams / 12 g/mol

Moles C = 2.995 moles

Step 5: Calculate mass of hydrogen:

14.3 % is hydrogen

this means 41.888 * 0.143 = 5.99 grams

Step 6 :Calculate moles of hydrogen

Moles H = 5.99 grams / 1.01 g/mol

Moles H = 5.93 moles

Step 7: Calculate mol ratio

Ratio C:H = 1:2

The empirical formule = CH2

Step 8: calculate molar formule

Molar mass of empirical formule = 14.02 g/mol

n = Molar mass of substance / molar mass of empirical formule

n = 41.888 / 14.02 = 3

This means we have to multiply the empirical formula by 3

3*(CH2) = C3H6

C3H6 can be propene or cyclopropane

g A piece of solid Zn metal is put into an aqueous solution of Cu(NO3)2. Write the net ionic equation for any single-replacement

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Zn(s) + Cu²⁺(aq) ⇒ Zn²⁺(aq) + Cu(s)

Explanation:

Let's consider the molecular single displacement equation between Zn and Cu(NO₃)₂

Zn(s) + Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) ⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + Cu(s)

The complete ionic equation includes all the ions and insoluble species.

Zn(s) + Cu²⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) ⇒ Zn²⁺(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq) + Cu(s)

The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction and insoluble species.

Zn(s) + Cu²⁺(aq) ⇒ Zn²⁺(aq) + Cu(s)

The liter is a measurement of which of the following qualities volume,teampature,mass,density

Doss [256]

Answer:

Volume

Explanation:

Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a closed surface, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or 3D shape occupies or contains.[1] Volume is often quantified numerically using the SI derived unit, the cubic metre. The volume of a container is generally understood to be the capacity of the container; i.e., the amount of fluid (gas or liquid) that the container could hold, rather than the amount of space the container itself displaces. Three dimensional mathematical shapes are also assigned volumes. Volumes of some simple shapes, such as regular, straight-edged, and circular shapes can be easily calculated using arithmetic formulas. Volumes of complicated shapes can be calculated with integral calculus if a formula exists for the shape's boundary. One-dimensional figures (such as lines) and two-dimensional shapes (such as squares) are assigned zero volume in the three-dimensional space.

The volume of a solid (whether regularly or irregularly shaped) can be determined by fluid displacement. Displacement of liquid can also be used to determine the volume of a gas. The combined volume of two substances is usually greater than the volume of just one of the substances. However, sometimes one substance dissolves in the other and in such cases the combined volume is not additive.[2]

In differential geometry, volume is expressed by means of the volume form, and is an important global Riemannian invariant. In thermodynamics, volume is a fundamental parameter, and is a conjugate variable to pressure.
