EXPERIMENT 1: Identify the oxidation and reduction half-reactions that occur in

Chemistry
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cathode: Mn → Mn²⁺  +  2e⁻    (Oxidation)

Anode: Zn²⁺  +  2e⁻  →  Zn   (Reduction)

Mn | Mn²⁺ ||  Zn²⁺  | Zn

Explanation:

To identify the half reaction we need to see the oxidation states.

Mn(s) → Ground state → Oxidation state = 0

Mn(NO₃)₂ → Mn²⁺  → The oxidation state has increased.

This is the oxidation reaction. It has released two electrons:

Mn → Mn²⁺  +  2e⁻

Zn(NO₃)₂ →  Zn²⁺

Zn → Ground state → The oxidation state was decreased.

This is the reduction reaction. It has gained two electrons:

Zn²⁺  +  2e⁻  →  Zn

Cathode: Mn → Mn²⁺  +  2e⁻

Anode: Zn²⁺  +  2e⁻  →  Zn

Mn | Mn²⁺ ||  Zn²⁺  | Zn

The reaction where sodium (Na) reacts with water to produce hydrogen gas is a type of reaction.
Kay [80]

Answer:

In what way and in what form does sodium react with water? A colourless solution is formed, consisting of strongly alkalic sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) and hydrogen gas. This is an exothermic reaction.

State hess's law.how is it used
Vesnalui [34]
 <span>Hess' Law states that the enthalpy change in a reaction can be calculated from the enthalpy changes of reactions that, when combined, result in the desired reaction. 

For example, to check the enthalpy change that occurs when benzene undergoes incomplete combustion to water and carbon monoxide is not an easy task, because the products invariably contain CO2. However, by combining the reactions of the complete combustion of benzene and the combustion of CO, you can get the reaction you want. 

Reaction wanted: 2C6H6 + 9O2 → 12CO + 6H2O 
Reactions provided: 2C6H6 + 15O2 → 12CO2 + 6H2O and 2CO + O2 → 2CO2, and their associated ΔH. 

Rearrange the reactions so that, when they add up, they result in the wanted reaction. 

2C6H6 + 15O2 → 12CO2 + 6H2O (leave as is; no changes to ΔH) 
12CO2 → 12CO + 6O2 (reverse and multiply by 6; this changes the sign of ΔH and multiplies it by 6) 

Added up, it will result in 2C6H6 + 9O2 → 12CO + 6H2O. Add up the ΔH values for the rearranged reactions to find ΔH for this particular reaction.</span>
