Answer:

NO3-

Explanation:

Given the reaction equation;

Au(s) + 3NO3-(aq) + 6H+(aq)→Au3+(aq) + 3NO2(g) + 3H2O (l).

We can consider the oxidation states of species on the left and right hand sides of the reaction equation;

Au is in zero oxidation state on the left hand side and an oxidation state of +3 on the righthand side.

NO3- is in oxidation state of +5 on the righthand side and NO2 is in + 4 oxidation state.

H+ is in + 1 oxidation state on both the left and right hand sides of the reaction equation.

Since reduction has to do with a decrease in oxidation number, it follows that NO3- was reduced in the reaction.

What is the density of an 84.7 g sample of an unknown substance if the sample occupies 49.6cm cubed
Ahat [919]

Answer:

             1.70 g.cm⁻³

Solution:

Data Given;

                   Mass  =  84.7 g

                   Volume  =  49.6 cm³

                   Density  =  ?

Formula Used;

                   Density  =  Mass ÷ Volume

Putting values,

                   Density  =  84.7 g ÷ 49.6 cm³ 

                   Density  =  1.70 g.cm⁻³

125.0 g of an unknown substance is heated to 97.0°C. It is then placed in a calorimeter than contains 250g of water with an init
Sveta_85 [38]
The heat released by the substance in the calorimeter is equal to  the heat absorbed by water which results to the decrease and increase in temperature, respectively.
We use m Cp ΔT to balance the heat involved 

(m Cp ΔT) subs in calorimeter = <span>(m Cp ΔT) water
</span>125 g * Cp * (97.0-23.5 ) C = 250 g *(4.18 J/C g)* (23.5-20)
Cp = 0.398 J/Cg
