Answer:
HCl is the correct answer
Oxidation state of I is (-1) and for CO it is zero. Let's assume that the oxidation state of Fe in Fe(CO)₄I₂<span> (s) is x. For whole compound, the charge is zero.
Sum of oxidation numbers in all elements = Charge of the compound.
Here we have 1Fe , 4CO and 2I
hence we can find the oxidation state as;
x + 4*0 + 2*(-1) = 0
x + 0 - 2 = 0
x = +2
Hence the oxidation state of Fe in product </span>Fe(CO)₄I₂ (s) is +2.
Same as we can find the oxidation state (y) of Fe in Fe(CO)₅(s).
y + 5*0 = 0
y = 0
Since oxidation state of Fe increased from 0 to +2, the oxidized element is Fe in the given reaction.
<u>Answer</u>:
Electric evaporator has been used to clean up the Chernobyl and 3 mile island accident.
<u>Explanation</u>:
About 14 years back, there was a puff of radioactive steam from the evaporator used in the "Three-mile island" nuclear plant. It took two years for the electric evaporator to clean up the 2.2 million gallons of water that have been destroyed because of the nuclear power plant accident.
The steam that came out of the electric evaporator carried a radioactive form of hydrogen and tritium with itself. Cost of clean up was $1 billion.
1. The empirical formula of the hydrocarbon is CH₃
2. The molecular formula of the hydrocarbon is C₂H₆
<h3>How to determine the mass of Carbon </h3>
- Mass of CO₂ = 1.47 g
- Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
- Molar of C = 12 g/mol
- Mass of C =?
Mass of C = (12 / 44) × 1.47
Mass of C = 0.4 g
<h3>How to determine the mass of H</h3>
- Mass of compound = 0.5 g
- Mass of C = 0.4 g
- Mass of H = ?
Mass of H = (mass of compound) – (mass of C)
Mass of H = 0.5 – 0.4
Mass of H =0.1 g
<h3>1. How to determine the empirical formula </h3>
- C = 0.4 g
- H = 0.1 g
- Empirical formula =?
Divide by their molar mass
C = 0.4 / 12 = 0.03
H = 0.1 / 1 = 0.1
Divide by the smallest
C = 0.03 / 0.03 = 1
H = 0.1 / 0.03 = 3
Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is CH₃
<h3>2. How to determine the molecular formula</h3>
- Empirical formula = CH₃
- Molar mass = 30 g/mol
- Molecular formula =?
Molecular formula = empirical × n = mass number
[CH₃]n = 30
[12 + (3×1)]n = 30
15n = 30
Divide both side by 15
n = 30 / 15
n = 2
Molecular formula = [CH₃]n
Molecular formula = [CH₃]₂
Molecular formula = C₂H₆
