Answer:
Oxidation: a type of chemical reaction where one or more electrons are lost.
Oxidation State / Number: a number assigned to an atom describing its degree of oxidation, meaning how many electrons it has gained or lost.
Reduction: a type of chemical reaction where one or more electrons are gained.
Oxidation-Reduction Reaction: a chemical reaction where oxidation and reduction occurs simultaneously
Explanation:
Reduction always occurs at cathode
Oxidation always occurs in anode
These two process occurs in same way independent of nature of cell whether voltaic or electrolytic.
I’m pretty sure it’s abode and cathode
Answer:
4190.22 L = 4.19 m³.
Explanation:
- For the balanced reaction:
<em>2P₂ + 5O₂ ⇄ 2P₂O₅. </em>
It is clear that 2 mol of P₂ react with <em>5 mol of O₂ </em>to produce <em>2 mol of P₂O₅.</em>
- Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 6.92 kilograms of P₂O₅ produced through the reaction:
no. of moles of P₂O₅ = mass/molar mass = (6920 g)/(283.88 g/mol) = 24.38 mol.
- Now, we can find the no. of moles of O₂ is needed to produce the proposed amount of P₂O₅:
<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>
5 mol of O₂ is needed to produce → 2 mol of P₂O₅, from stichiometry.
??? mol of O₂ is needed to produce → 24.38 mol of P₂O₅.
∴ The no. of moles of O₂ needed = (5 mol)(24.38 mol)/(2 mol) = 60.95 mol.
- Finally, we can get the volume of oxygen using the general law of ideal gas:<em> PV = nRT.</em>
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = 606.1 mm Hg/760 = 0.8 atm).
V is the volume of the gas in L (V = ??? L).
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = 60.95 mol).
R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),
T is the temperature of the gas in K (396.90°C + 273 = 669.9 K).
∴ V of oxygen needed = nRT/P = (60.95 mol)(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(669.9 K)/(0.8 atm) = 4190.22 L/1000 = 4.19 m³.
