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.

Can Air can be warmed or cooled by the surface below

suter [353]

I believe it can be warm because usually the surface below us is warm itself, causing the air to be warm as well. The temperature can vary as well

How can you tell S-wave arrival from the end of the P-wave?

Margarita [4]

Answer:

<h2>The P wave will be the first wiggle that is bigger than the rest of the little ones (the microseisms). Because P waves are the fastest seismic waves, they will usually be the first ones that your seismograph records. The next set of seismic waves on your seismogram will be the S waves</h2>

When fluorine gas combines with water vapor, the following reactions occurs.

jonny [76]

Hello!

The Chemical reaction is the following:

2F₂(g) + 2 H₂O(g) → O₂(g) + 4HF(g)

If we assume that all the gases are ideal gases, we can describe the coefficients of this reaction as Volume rather than moles, so we can apply the following equations:

$2 L F_2* \frac{2 L H_2O}{2 L F_2}=2 L H_2O \\ \\ 2 L F_2* \frac{1 mol O_2}{2 L F_2}=1 mol O_2 \\ \\ 2 L F_2* \frac{4 mol HF}{2 mol F_2}= 4 mol HF$

So, 2 L of Water Vapor reacts with the fluorine; and 1 L of Oxygen and 4 L of Hydrogen Fluoride are produced.

Have a nice day!

In an aqueous solution that has not reached the saturation point, why won't the ions bond to create mineral crystals?

Dominik [7]

In an aqueous solution that has not reached the saturation, the ions do not bond to create mineral crystals the motion of the ions that are dissolved would keep them from bonding. The ions creates temporary bonds to the partial charge present in the water molecules which will not allow for the ions to form a compound.
