False it is actually called a neutralization reaction.
The most common allotropes are:-
White phosphorus
Red phosphorus
The red one is an intermediate phase between white and violent phosphorus.
This is a redox reaction, meaning reduction-oxidation reaction. This represents the reaction in one side of the electrode in an electrolysis set-up. First, we find the oxidation number of Cu in CuSO4:
(ox. # of Cu)+ ox.# of S + 4(ox.# of oxygen) = 0
(ox. # of Cu) + (6) + 4(-2) = 0
ox. # of Cu = 2+
CuSO4 ---> Cu + SO42-
Cu2+ + SO42- ----> Cu + SO42-
Cu2+ -----> Cu + 2e- (net ionic reaction)
The stoichiometric equation would be 2 electrons per mole Copper. Copper has a molar mass of <span>63.5 g/mol. Then, it would only need 2 electrons.

Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Data:</u>
a) Hypochlorous acid = HClO
b) [HClO} = 0.015
c) pH = 4.64
d) pKa = ?
<u>2) Strategy:</u>
With the pH calculate [H₃O⁺], then use the equilibrium equation to calculate the equilibrium constant, Ka, and finally calculate pKa from the definition.
<u>3) Solution:</u>
a) pH
b) Equilibrium equation: HClO (aq) ⇄ ClO⁻ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq)
c) Equilibrium constant: Ka = [ClO⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HClO]
d) From the stoichiometry: [CLO⁻] = [H₃O⁺] = 2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M
e) By substitution: Ka = (2.29 × 10 ⁻⁵ M)² / 0.015M = 3.50 × 10⁻⁸ M
f) By definition: pKa = - log Ka = - log (3.50 × 10 ⁻⁸) = 7.46
