Explanation:

both reduction and oxidation are occurring simultaneously, this is known as a redox reaction. An oxidizing agent is substance which oxidizes something else. In the above example, the iron(III) oxide is the oxidizing agent. A reducing agent reduces something else

<h2>ANSWER:</h2>

The oxygen atoms undergo reduction, formally gaining electrons, while the carbon atoms undergo oxidation, losing electrons. Thus oxygen is the oxidizing agent and carbon is the reducing agent in this reaction.

Explain what will happen to the organisms that is affected by human activities.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Human activity is by far the biggest cause of habitat loss.

Humans are now responsible for causing changes in the environment that hurt animals and plant species. We take up more space on Earth for our homes and cities. We pollute habitats. ... Human activity often changes or destroys the habitats that plants and animals need to survive.

Explanation:

Human activities are the various actions for recreation, living, or necessity done by people. For instance it includes leisure, entertainment, industry, recreation, war, and exercise.

Over time, destruction of such habitats leads to reduced biodiversity, weakening the Earth's ecosystems, and ultimately posing a major threat to human life. While, significant tracts of habitat have been lost, and along with them many species of plant and animal, steps can be taken to slow and even reverse the process.

One of the most significant ways in which humans have impacted on the lives of other species is by causing climate change. Many animals, including birds and frogs, now breed much earlier in spring in Britain than they did 20 years ago. Whether or not this is having a harmful effect on them has yet to be determined.

How many formula units make up 24.2 g of magnesium chloride (MgCl2)? Help!!

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Approximately $1.53 \times 10^{23}$ formula units ( $0.254\; \rm mol$ ).

Explanation:

Refer to a modern periodic table for the relative atomic mass of magnesium ( $\rm Mg$ ) and chlorine ( $\rm Cl$ ):

$\rm Mg$ : $24.305$ .
$\rm Cl$ : $35.45$ .

In other words, the mass of $1\; \rm mol$ of $\rm Mg$ atoms would be (approximately) $24.305\; \rm g$ .

Likewise, the mass of $1\; \rm mol$ of $\rm Cl$ atoms would be approximately $35.45\; \rm g$ .

One formula unit of the ionic compound $\rm MgCl_{2}$ includes exactly as many atoms as there are in the given formula. The formula mass of a compound is the mass of $1\; \rm mol$ of the formula units of this compound.

The formula $\rm MgCl_{2}$ includes one $\rm Mg$ atom and two $\rm Cl$ atoms.

Hence, every formula unit of $\rm MgCl_{2} \!$ would include the same number of atoms: one $\rm Mg\!$ atom and two $\rm Cl\!$ atoms. There would be $1\; \rm mol$ of $\rm Mg$ atoms and $2\; \rm mol$ of $\rm Cl$ atoms in $1\; \rm mol\!$ of $\rm MgCl_{2}$ formula units.

Thus, the mass of $1\; \rm mol\!$ of $\rm MgCl_{2}$ formula units would be equal to the mass of $1\; \rm mol$ of $\rm Mg$ atoms plus the mass of $2\; \rm mol$ of $\rm Cl$ atoms. (The mass of $1\; \rm mol\!\!$ of each atom could be found from the relative atomic mass of each element.)

$\begin{aligned}& M({\rm MgCl_{2}}) \\ =\; & 24.305\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} + 2\times {\rm 35.45 \; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ =\; & 95.205\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

In other words, the formula mass of $\rm MgCl_{2}$ is $95.205\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}$ .

Therefore, the number of formula units in $m = 24.2\; \rm g$ of $\rm MgCl_{2}$ would be:

$\begin{aligned}n &= \frac{m({\rm MgCl_{2}})}{M({\rm MgCl_{2}})} \\ &= \frac{24.2\; \rm g}{95.205\; \rm g\cdot mol^{-1}} \\ & \approx 0.254\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .

Multiple $n$ by Avogadro's Number $N_{A} \approx 6.022 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1}$ to estimate the number of formula units in $0.254\; \rm mol$ :

$\begin{aligned}N &= n \cdot N_{A} \\ &\approx 0.254\; \rm mol \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1} \\ &\approx 1.53\times 10^{23}\end{aligned}$ .

1. What is the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 3.11 grams of NaOH in

Elena L [17]

The molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 3.11 grams of NaOH in

enough water to make 300 milliliters of solution is 0. 256 mol/ L

Explanation:

<h3>What is Molarity?</h3>

Molarity (M) is the amount of a substance in a given volume of solution. It is otherwise known as the number of moles of solute in a certain amount of solution.

The unit of molarity is mol/L

<h3>Formula for calculating molarity :</h3>

Molarity = number of moles of solute divided by the volume of the solution\

<h3>Parameters </h3>

Molarity = ?

Number of moles is calculated using :

Mass of the solute = 3.11 grams of NaOH

Molar mass of the solute = Na + O + H

Let's input the atomic numbers of the elements: Na (23) , O (16) , H (1)

Molar mass of NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40 g/ mol

Number of moles = 3.11 ÷ 40 = 0.077 mol

Volume of the solution is measured in Liters

Let's convert 300 milliters to liters = 300 divided by 1000 = 0.3 Liters

Molarity = 0.077 ÷ 0.3 = 0. 256 mol/ L

Therefore, the Molarity of the solution is 0. 256 mol/ L
