Answer:

A disproportionation reaction is when a multiatomic species whose pertinent element has a specific oxidation state gets oxidized and reduced in two separate half-reactions, yielding two other products containing the same pertinent element. A convenient example is Mn2O3 becoming Mn2+ and MnO2 .

Examples. Hydrogen peroxide converting into water and oxygen is a disproportionation reaction. Water dissociating into H3O+ and OH- is an example of a disproportionation reaction that is not a redox reaction.

Using the following reaction:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Mn is the oxidizing agent.

N is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the undergoing chemical reaction, it is seen that the manganese in KMnO4 has an oxidation state of 7+, in MnSO4 of 2+ and nitrogen in KNO2 is 3+ and in KNO3 is 5+; thus we have the following half-reactions:

Mn^{7+}+5e^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}\\\\N^{3+}\rightarrow N^{5+}+2e^-

Thus, since manganese is undergoing a decrease in the oxidation state, we infer it is the oxidizing agent whereas nitrogen, undergoing an increase in the oxidation state is the reducing agent.

Best regards!

Molarity of 2%W/V of NaOH is
TiliK225 [7]
Assume it is 1 litre and weighs 1kg.
2 percent of 1 kg is 20g.
20g divided by molar mass of NaOH.
20g divide by 40 = 0.5 mole
0.5 mole in a litre would be 0.5M
That is the answer: 0.5M

An experiment to measure the enthalpy change for the reaction of aqueous
Komok [63]

Given that, an experiment to measure the enthalpy change for the reaction of aqueous copper(II) sulfate, CuSO4(aq) and zinc, Zn(s) was carried out in a coffee cup calorimeter; the heat of the reaction in the whole system is calculated to be 2218.34 kJ

Heat of reaction (i.e enthalpy of reaction) is the quantity of heat that is required to be added or removed when a chemical reaction is taken place in order to maintain all of the compounds present at the same temperature.

The formula used to calculate the heat of the reaction can be expressed as follows:

Q = mcΔT

where:

  • Q = quantity of heat transfer
  • m = mass
  • c = specific heat of water = 4.18 kJ/g °C (constant)
  • ΔT = change in temparature

From the information given:

  • The initial temperature (T₁) = 25° C
  • The final temperature (T₂) = 91.5° C

∴

The change in temperature i.e. ΔT = T₂ - T₁

ΔT = 91.5° C - 25° C

ΔT = 66.5° C

The number of moles of CuSO₄ = 1.00 mol/dm³ × 50.0 cm³

\mathbf{= (1 \times \dfrac{50}{1000})\ moles}

= 0.05 moles

  • Since the molar mass of CuSO₄ = 159.609 g/mol

Then;

Using the relation:

\mathbf{number \ of \ moles = \dfrac{mass}{molar \ mass}}}

By crossing multiplying;

mass of CuSO₄ = number of moles of CuSO₄ ×  molar mass of CuSO₄

mass of CuSO₄ = 0.05 moles  × 159.609 g/moles

mass of CuSO₄ = 7.9805 grams

∴

Using the formula from above:

Q = mcΔT

Q = 7.9805 g × 4.18 kJ/g °C × 66.5° C

Q = 2218.34 kJ

Therefore, we can conclude that the heat of the reaction is 2218.34 kJ

Anna71 [15]

Answer:10,0000 years

Explanation:

If it takes 2000 years to weather 1cm of limestone

It will take 5*2000 years to weather 5cm of limestone. This gives us 10000 years.
