In a redox reaction electrons are lost and gained in equal numbers. The species that is oxidized gives electrons to the species that is reduced. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
Hello!
The pKa of an indicator tells us the pH where it changes color. The pKa of Methyl red is
So, at a pH=7,8,
Methyl Red would be at a pH over its pKa, so it would be in its basic form. The Basic Form of Methyl Red is Yellow, so
the solution would be Yellow.Have a nice day!
Answer:
the number of protons equals the number of
electrons
Explanation:
Because these particles have the same but opposite charges, equal numbers cancel out, producing a neutral atom.
Answer:
68.1% is percent yield of the reaction
Explanation:
The reaction of methane with oxygen is:
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
<em>Where 2 moles of oxygen react per mole of CH₄</em>
<em />
Percent yield is:
Actual yield (28.2g CO₂) / Theoretical yield * 100
To solve this question we need to find theoretical yield finding limiting reactant :
<em>Moles CH₄:</em>
15.1g CH₄ * (1mol / 16.04g) = 0.9414 moles
<em>Moles O₂:</em>
81.2g * (1mol / 32g) = 2.54 moles
For a complete reaction of 0.9414 moles of CH₄ are needed:
0.9414 moles CH₄ * (2 mol O₂ / 1mol CH₄) = 1.88 moles of O₂. As there are 2.54 moles, O₂ is in excess and <em>CH₄ is limiting reactant</em>
In theoretical yield, the moles of methane added = Moles of CO₂ produced. That is 0.9414 moles CO₂. In grams = Theoretical yield:
0.9414 moles CO₂ * (44.01g / mol) = 41.43g CO₂
Percent yield: 28.2g CO₂ / 41.43g CO₂ * 100=
<h3>68.1% is percent yield of the reaction</h3>
