Correct Question: what is the oxidizing agent in the reaction.
2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Answer: MnO4-is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
In the reaction 2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Oxidizing agent oxidizes other molecules while the themselves get reduced.
oxidizing agents give away Oxygen to other compounds.
MnO4-is the oxidizing agent because
On the reactants side
Oxidation number of Mn in 2MnO4- is +7
Oxidation number of Cl- is -1
On the products side
Oxidation number of Mn is +2
While oxidation number of Cl is zero
Therefore the oxidizing agent is 2MnO4 because is oxidizes Chlorine from -1 to 0 while itself got reduced from oxidation state of +7 to +2
Answer:
Volcanoes cool off the earth by emitting heat from its interior. They also add islands and for example, Hawaii was created / is made out of volcanoes. The deposits from volcanoes can also be used for building materials. Volcanic explosions have caused the atmosphere and oceans to form. Volcanic deposits also create land which is fertile.
Chemistry is the branch of science that deals with the identification of the substances of which matter is composed the investigation of their properties and the ways in which they interact, combine, and change and the use of these processes to form new substances.
The number of moles in monochloro pentaborane (9)
is 0.37056.
We know that ,
Number of moles = Given mass/ Molar mass
Given mass of monochloro pentaborane (9) is 20.1 g
The molar mass of monochloro pentaborane (9) is
= 
= 
= 54.241
Thus number of moles = 20.1/54.241
= 0.37056
