Is oxygen a necessary reactant for an oxidation reaction? Explain

Chemistry
1 answer:
AleksandrR [38]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

So oxidation reactions need not involve oxygen. This redox reaction is actually the sum of two separate half-reactions (a reduction half-reaction and an oxidation half-reaction).

The pyrolysis of ethane proceeds with an activation energy of about 300 kJ/mol. How much faster is the decomposition at 625°C th
Alona [7]

Answer:

The decomposition of ethane is 153.344 times much faster at 625°C than at 525°C.

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius equation,

K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

K_2 = rate of reaction at T_2

K_1 = rate of reaction at T_1

Ea = activation energy of the reaction

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K mol

E_a=300 kJ/mol=300,000 J/mol

T_2=625^oC=898.15 K,T_1=525^oC=798.15 K

\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=\frac{300,000 J/mol}{2.303\times 8.314 J/K mol}[\frac{1}{798.15 K}-\frac{1}{898.15 K}]

\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=2.185666

K_2=153.344\times K_1

The decomposition of ethane is 153.344 times much faster at 625°C than at 525°C.

Why are cells the building blocks of an organism.​
ladessa [460]

Answer:A cell is the smallest unit of life, also called the 'building blocks of life' because cells multiply and differentiate to form a multicellular organism as well as give rise to new organism by forming gametes or reproductive spores.

The combustion of ethene in the presence of excess oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water: c2h4 (g) + 3o2 (g) → 2co2 (g) + 2h2o
meriva

Answer:

\boxed{-267.5}

Explanation:

You can calculate the entropy change of a reaction by using the standard molar entropies of reactants and products.

The formula is

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = \sum_n {nS_{\text{products}}^{\circ} - \sum_{m} {mS_{\text{reactants}}^{\circ}}}

The equation for the reaction is

                        C₂H₄(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

ΔS°/J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹   219.5      205.0         213.6         69.9

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = (2\times213.6 + 2\times69.9) - (1\times219.5 + 3\times205.0)\\\\= 567.0 - 834.5 = \boxed{-267.5 \text{ J}\cdot\text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}}

To what volume should you dilute 50.0 ml of 12 m hno3 solution to obtain a 0.100 m hno3 solution?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The answer is "6L"

Explanation:

Formula:

\bold{C_1 \times V_1 = C_2 \times V_2 }\\\\V_2= \frac{C_1\times V_1}{C_2}

Values:

\to C_1= 12 \ m\\\to V_1= 50 \ ml\\\to C_2= 0.100 \ m\\\\\\V_2= \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}

   = \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}\\\\= \frac{12 \times 50 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= \frac{600 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= 600 \times 10\\\\=6000 \ ml\\= 6 \ L
