Answer:
36.92 mg of oxygen required for bio-degradation.
Explanation:
Mass of benzene = 30 mg = 0.03 g (1000 mg = 1 g )
Moles benzene =
According to reaction 5 moles of benzene reacts with 15 moles of oxygen gas.
Then 0.0003846 mol of benzene will react with:
of oxygen gas
Mass of 0.0011538 moles of oxygen gas:
0.0011538 mol × 32 g/mol = 0.03692 g = 36.92 mg
36.92 mg of oxygen required for bio-degradation.
To find for the oxidizing agent, first let us write the
half reactions of this complete chemical reaction:
Ca = Ca2+ + 2e- <span>
2 H+ + 2e- = H2</span>
The oxidizing agent
would be the substance of the element that is reduced. We know that an element
is reduced when an electron is added to it. In this case, the element being
reduced is H. Therefore the oxidizing agent is HNO3.
Answer:
<span>HNO3</span>
You forgot to attach the text
BTW reduction is the action or fact of making a specified thing smaller or less in amount, degree, or size.
A MOLECULE IS MADE OF TWO OR MORE ELEMENTS CHEMICALLY COMBINED IS KNOWN AS A COMPUND.
A MOLECULE IS MADE OF TWO ATOMS IS JUST AN ELEMENT.
A MOLECULE MADE OF TWO OR MORE ELEMENTS IS KNOWN AS A COMPUND.
