Answer: Mn is getting reduced.

Explanation:

Oxidation-reduction reaction or redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases.

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced.

[tex]MnO_4^-(aq)+H_2C_2O_4(aq)\rightarrow Mn^{2+}(aq)+CO_2(g)[/tex]

Oxidation : As Manganese has an oxidation state of +7 in [tex]MnO_4^-[/tex] and +2 in [tex]Mn^{2+}[/tex], the oxidation state is decreasing and hence it is getting reduced.

Reduction : As carbon has an oxidation state of +3 in [tex]H_2C_2O_4[/tex] and +4 in [tex]CO_2[/tex], the oxidation state is increasing and hence it is getting oxidized.

The element which is reduced in the redox reaction is Mn.

The redox reaction is shown below:

MnO₄⁻(aq) + H₂C₂O₄(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq) + CO₂(g)

A redox reaction is the type of reaction which involves oxidation processes

occurring with a corresponding reduction process.

Oxidation reaction involves the reaction in which a substance loses its

electrons to become positively charged with an increase in the oxidation

state.

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains

electrons to become positively charged with a decrease in the oxidation

state.

MnO₄⁻ has an oxidation state of +7 and Mn²⁺ having an oxidation state of +2

signifies a decrease in the oxidation state.

The answer to this question is approximately equal to 57.8

Answer:

The correct answer is - 1.02 V

Explanation:

From the reduction-oxidation reaction:

Ni²⁺(aq) + 2 Fe²⁺(aq) → Ni(s) + 2 Fe³⁺(aq)

Ni²⁺ is reduced to Ni(s) while Fe²⁺ is oxidized to Fe³⁺. Thus, the half reactions are:

Reduction (cathode) : Ni²⁺(aq) + 2 e‑ → Ni(s)                    Eº= ‑0.25 V

Oxidation (anode) :  2 x (Fe²⁺ → Fe³⁺ + e-)(aq)                Eº= -0.77 V

                                -------------------------------------

                     Ni²⁺(aq) + 2 Fe²⁺(aq) → Ni(s) + 2 Fe³⁺(aq)

In order to calculate the Eºcell, we have to add the reduction potential of the reaction in cathode (reduction) to the oxidation potential of the anode (oxidation):

Eºcell= Eºr + Eºo= (-0.25 V) + (-0.77 V) = - 1.02 V

d. CdTe (Cadmium Telluride) - polar covalent bonding

e. ZnTe (Zinc Telluride)- polar covalent bonding

Answer:

The correct answer is - option B -  lowest b.p.... isobutane < acetone < isopropanol ...highest b.p.

Explanation:

Isobutane has lowest boiling point due to no hydrogen bonding and no diole to dipole interaction found in them. Isobutane only shows weak dispersion force.

Acetone has dipole dipole interaction but due to lack of Hydrogen bonding they have low boiling point than isopropanol but higher than isobutanol.

Isopropanol is the compound that has ability to form hydrogen bonding with other molecule its boiling point is maximum among all three.

Thus, the correct answer is - option B -  lowest b.p.... isobutane < acetone < isopropanol ...highest b.p.

Answer:

155 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Step 2: Convert the initial temperature to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15 = 23.0°C + 273.15 = 296.2 K

Step 3: Calculate the final temperature

Assuming an ideal gas behavior, we can calculate the final temperature using Charles' law.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = V₂ × T₁/V₁

T₂ = 4.20 L × 296.2 K/2.91 L

T₂ = 428 K

Step 4: Convert the final temperature to Celsius

We will use the following expression.

°C = K - 273.15 = 428 - 273.15 = 155 °C

Answer:

One carbon atom and the nitrogen atom have nonzero formal charges.

Explanation:

The compound Acetonitrile has sixteen valence electrons as is easily San from its structure. It contains a carbon nitrogen triple bond with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen. All atoms satisfy the octet rule and there is no hyper valent atom in the molecule.

The formal charge an carbon and nitrogen is calculated as follows;

No. of valence electron on atom - [non bonded electrons + no. of bonds]

Therefore, for carbon and nitrogen, we have;

formal charge on carbon = 4 - (0 + 4) = 0

formal charge on nitrogen = 5 - (2 + 3) = 0

Hence carbon and nitrogen both possess zero formal charges.

Answer:

The empirical formulae for the car fuel is C4H9

Answer:

1. Zinc sulfide : about the same solubility, no common ion is found.

2. Silver chloride : less solubility due to the presence of chloride ions provided by the 0.10 M hydrochloric acid.

3. Lead iodide  : about the same solubility, no common ion is found.

4. Silver hydroxide : about the same solubility, no common ion is found.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we first must remember that adding a common ion (which is related with the dissolving solid) decreases the solubility of the insoluble solid due to the fact Le Chatelier's principle states the reaction will shift leftwards (reactants) to reestablish equilibrium, therefore, we have:

1. Zinc sulfide : about the same solubility, no common ion is found.

2. Silver chloride : less solubility due to the presence of chloride ions provided by the 0.10 M hydrochloric acid.

3. Lead iodide  : about the same solubility, no common ion is found.

4. Silver hydroxide : about the same solubility, no common ion is found.

Answer:

1. Exothermic 2.  Exothermic 3. Endothermic 4. Endothermic 5. Exothermic.

Explanation:

1. An A-A and a C-C bond results in 2 A-C bonds which are lower than the A-A and C-C bonds so this reaction is exothermic.

2. A B-B bond and a C-C bond results in 2 B-C bonds which are lower than the first 2 bonds so this reaction is also exothermic.

3. There is no bond for single A, a single B-C bond results in a A-B bond and a C molecule. A-B bond is stronger than the B-C bond so the reaction absorbed energy along the way. This shows that it is endothermic.

4. An A-A bond and a B-B bond results in 2 A-B bonds which are stronger than the first two bonds so this reaction is also endothermic.

5. An A-B bond and a C molecule result in an A-C bond and a B molecule. A-C bond is weaker than the A-B bond so there is energy released. This reaction is exothermic.

Answer:

d) NH4F

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the base resulting from mixing a weak acid and a weak base is d) NH4F since ammonium hydroxide is a wear base and hydrofluoric acid is a weak acid.

Ammonium hydroxide is a weak base since it is not completely ionized in ammonium and hydroxyl ions:

[tex]NH_4OH\rightarrow NH_4^++OH^-[/tex]

Moreover, hydrofluoric acid is a weak acid since it is not completely ionized in hydrogen and fluoride ions:

[tex]HF\rightleftharpoons H^++F^-[/tex]

For the both of the substances, the limit is established by the basic and the acid dissociation constant respectively.

Answer:

Buffer is the chemical substance that addition of acids and bases, maintaining constant environment,its called Buffer.

Explanation:

Answer:

CH4 < CH3CH3 < CH3CH2CH3

Explanation:

Alkanes are saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons that undergoes intermolecular Van der waals forces. Van der waals forces are the attractive forces which make it possible for non-polar molecules to form liquids and solids.

Van der waals force are described as intermolecular forces arising from induced fluctuating dipoles in atoms and molecules brought about by movement of electrons around the atomic nucleus.

An example of the Van der waals force is the  london dispersion force that occurs in the alkane family. It is the weakest of all electrical forces that act between atoms and molecules, These forces are responsible for liquefaction or solidification of non-polar substances at low temperature.

The strength of the intermolecular forces is based on the number of electrons surrounding the molecule and the surface area of the molecule. SO, in alkanes, the longer the carbon chain, the more stronger the intermolecular forces.

Answer:

Ratio of Vrms of argon to Vrms of hydrogen = 0.316 : 1

Explanation:

The root-mean-square speed measures the average speed of particles in a gas, and is given by the following formula:  

Vrms = [tex]\sqrt{3RT/M}[/tex]

where R is molar gas constant = 8.3145 J/K.mol, T is temperature in kelvin, M is molar mass of gas in Kg/mol

For argon, M = 40/1000 Kg/mol = 0.04 Kg/mol, T = 4T , R = R

Vrms = √(3 * R *4T)/0.04 = √300RT

For hydrogen; M = 1/1000 Kg/mol = 0.001 Kg/mol, T = T, R = R

Vrms = √(3 * R *T)/0.001 = √3000RT

Ratio of Vrms of argon to that of hydrogen = √300RT / √3000RT = 0.316

Ratio of Vrms of argon to that of hydrogen = 0.316 : 1

electrostatic and ionic are definitely not the answer because they have high melting point

hydrogen bonds are too weak and not permanent.

so the answer is apolar as it is soluble in polar solvents (water)

Answer:

B. Nonpolar

Explanation:

The low melting point tells you the compound is not ionic, metallic, or a network solid.

It is almost certainly a molecular solid.

It does not conduct electricity, so it is not metallic (which we have already ruled out).

It is insoluble in polar solvents (water) and soluble in nonpolar solvents (gasoline).

Since like dissolves like, the molecule is nonpolar.

The type of links must be nonpolar.

Answer:

ΔG  = -49.64 KJ/mol

Explanation:

The actual free energy change of the reaction under the given conditions,  ΔG is given by the formula below;

ΔG = ΔG'° + RT ln([ADP][HPO₂⁴⁻] / [ATP])

where ΔG'° = -30.5 KJ/mol; R = 8.315 J/mol.K; T = 37°C = 310 K; [ADP] = 5.0 mM = 0.005 M; [HPO₂⁴⁻] = 0.60 mM = 0.0006 M; [ATP] = 5.0 mM = 0.005 M

ΔG = -30.5 KJ/mol + (8.315 J/mol.K)(310 K) ln {(0.005)(0.0006)/(0.005)}

ΔG = -30.5 KJ/mol + (2.58 KJ/mol * -7.4186)

ΔG = -30.5 KJ/mol - 19.14 KJ/mol

ΔG  = -49.64 KJ/mol

Answer:

The answer is noble gases

Explanation:

Here is your explanation The vertical columns are called groups. There are eighteen groups. The last group on the far right is called the noble, or inert gases. Elements in a group have similar chemical properties. For example, elements in the noble gas group are all gases under. This is the thing from the passege bye god bless you

The last group of elements on the periodic table are called "noble gases."

The noble gases are a group of elements located in Group 18 of the periodic table. They are also known as Group 0 or the "inert gases." The noble gases include helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and radon (Rn).

The noble gases are unique because they have a full complement of valence electrons in their outermost energy level. This full electron configuration gives them exceptional stability, making them chemically unreactive or inert under normal conditions. In other words, noble gases are less likely to form chemical bonds with other elements.
