Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen is one of the most abundant elements on this planet. Our atmosphere is 21% free elemental oxygen. Oxygen is also extensively combined in compounds in the earths crust, such as water (89%) and in mineral oxides. Even the human body is 65% oxygen by mass.

Free elemental oxygen occurs naturally as a gas in the form of diatomic molecules, O2 (g). Oxygen exhibits many unique physical and chemical properties. For example, oxygen is a colorless and odorless gas, with a density greater than that of air, and a very low solubility in water. In fact, the latter two properties greatly facilitate the collection of oxygen in this lab. Among the unique chemical properties of oxygen are its ability to support respiration in plants and animals, and its ability to support combustion.

In this lab, oxygen will be generated as a product of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. A catalyst is used to speed up the rate of the decomposition reaction, which would otherwise be too slow to use as a source of oxygen. The catalyst does not get consumed by the reaction, and can be collected for re-use once the reaction is complete. The particular catalyst used in this lab is manganese(IV) oxide.

Answer:

Only $Fe^{3+}+Mg$ gives spontaneous reaction.

Explanation:

A redox reaction will be spontaneous if standard reduction potential ( $E^{0}$ ) of the reaction is positive. Because it leads to negative standard gibbs free energy change ( $\Delta G^{0}$ ), which is a thermodynamic condition for spontaneity of a reaction.

$E^{0}=E^{0}(reduction)-E^{0}(oxidation)$

Where $E^{0}(reduction)$ and $E^{0}(oxidation)$ represents standard reduction potential of reduction half cell and standard reduction potential of oxidation half cell.

(1) Oxidation: $Mg-2e^{-}\rightarrow Mg^{2+}$ ; $E_{Mg^{2+}\mid Mg}^{0}=-2.38V$

Reduction: $Fe^{3+}+3e^{-}\rightarrow Fe$ ; $E_{Fe^{3+}\mid Fe}^{0}=-0.04V$

So, $E^{0}=E_{Fe^{3+}\mid Fe}^{0}-E_{Mg^{2+}\mid Mg}^{0}=(-0.04+2.38)V=2.34V$

Hence this pair will give spontaneous reaction.

(2) Similarly as above, $E^{0}=E_{Pb^{2+}\mid Pb}^{0}-E_{Au^{+}\mid Au}^{0}=(-0.13-1.69)V=-1.82 V$

Hence this pair will give non-spontaneous reaction.

(3) Similarly as above, $E^{0}=E_{Ag^{+}\mid Ag}^{0}-E_{Br_{2}\mid Br^{-}}^{0}=(0.80-1.07)V=-0.27 V$

Hence this pair will give non-spontaneous reaction.

(4) Similarly as above, $E^{0}=E_{Li^{+}\mid Li}^{0}-E_{Cr^{3+}\mid Cr}^{0}=(-3.04+0.74)V=-2.30 V$

Hence this pair will give non-spontaneous reaction.

Answer:

compounds are elements include an element and a compound

Explanation:

elements in the decomposition reaction is the substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances. Compounds, technically act as a reactant in the decomposition reaction, but since the reaction breakdown one substance into two or more, sometimes it exists in the product
