The kind of reaction involving the transfer of electrons or hydrogen away from a molecule is called oxidation.
In the same vein, the molecule that receives the electron or the hydrogen atom is said to be reduced. This means that oxidation cannot exist in isolation without reduction.
In other words, oxidation is defined as:
- Loss of electrons
- Loss of hydrogen atoms
- Gain of oxygen atoms
- Gain in oxidation number
While reduction is defined as:
- Gain of electrons
- Gain of hydrogen atom
- Loss of oxygen atom
- Reduction in oxidation number

i would have to say boiling because all that does is make the molecules do that fancy word for moving to the surface when they heat.
<u>Given:</u>
Distance of solvent front = 68 mm
Distance of unknown = 48 mm
<u>To determine:</u>
The rf value
<u>Explanation:</u>
The retention factor or the rf value is given by the ratio of distance traveled by the unknown to the distance traveled by the solvent front
RF = distance by unknown/distance by solvent
RF = 48/68 = 0.706
Ans: the RF value is 0.706
Answer:
a. Kw = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴
Explanation:
a. Let's consider the self-ionization of water.
2 H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + OH⁻
The ion-product of water (Kw) at 25 °C is:
Kw = [H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴
c. Considering [H⁺] = [H₃O⁺] = 4.0 × 10⁻⁹ M, the concentration of OH⁻ is:
[OH⁻] = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴/[H₃O⁺] = 2.5 × 10⁻⁶ M
b. We can calculate the pOH using the following expression.
pOH = -log [OH⁻] = -log 2.5 × 10⁻⁶ = 5.6
d. We can calculate the pH using the following expression.
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 4.0 × 10⁻⁹ = 8.4
