Answer:

Neon

Explanation:

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹ or [Ne]  3s¹

The outer most shell is the 3s¹.

For this atom to achieve stability, if it loses the electron in the 3s shell, it would resemble an inert element with a complete octet configuration. Therefore, the atom would be like:

                   1s² 2s² 2p⁶ which is the configuration of Ne

Identify the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following reactions: (i) 8NH3( g) + 6NO2( g) => 7N2( g) + 12H2O( l
shusha [124]

Answer:

(i)  Oxidizing Agent: NO2 / Reducing Agent NH3-

(ii) Oxidizing Agent AgNO3 / Reducing Agent Zn

Explanation:

(i) 8NH3( g) + 6NO2( g) => 7N2( g) + 12H2O( l)

In this reaction, both two reactants contain nitrogen with a different oxidation number and produce only one product which contains nitrogen with a unique oxidation state. So, nitrogen is oxidized and reduced in the same reaction.

Nitrogen Undergoes a change in oxidation state from 4+ in NO2 to 0 in N2. It is reduced because it gains electrons (decrease its oxidation state). NO2 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor).

Nitrogen Changes from an oxidation state of 3- in NH3 to 0 in N2. It is oxidized because it loses electrons (increase its oxidation state). NH3 is the reducing agent (electron donor)

(ii) Zn(s) +AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)

Ag changes oxidation state from 1+ to 0 in Ag(s).

Ag is reduced because it gains electrons and for this reason and AgNO3 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor)

Zn Changes from an oxidation state of 0 in Zn(s) to 2+ in Zn(NO3)2. It is oxidized and for this reason Zn is the reducing agent (electron donor).

Balanced equation:

Zn(s) +2AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + 2Ag(s)

A compound with the empirical formula, ch2, has a molar mass equal to 84.2 g/mol. what is the molecular formula for the compound
MatroZZZ [7]
<span>Mass of CH2 = 12 + 2 = 14 g/mol The number of CH2s there are. So since the total mass is 84.2 g/mol. The solution is 84.2/14 = 6.012 thus the answer is 6 There are 6(CH2) So the molecular formula is C6H12</span>

How are exothermic and endothermic reactions linked in the process of refining metal ore?
Alex777 [14]
The intended sense is that of a reaction that depends on absorbing heat if it is to proceed. The opposite of an endothermic process is an exothermic process, one that releases "gives out" energy in the form of heat

How many grams of the titrant used in the question 3 (sodium hydroxide -- 0.1001 mole/kg of solution) are required to titrate 10
katen-ka-za [31]

846.6 g of sodium hydroxide solution

Explanation:

The chemical reaction of butanedioic acid with sodium hydroxide:

HOOC-CH₂-CH₂-COOH + 2 NaOH → NaOOC-CH₂-CH₂-COONa + 2 H₂O

To find the mass of the solute (butanedioic acid) from a solution about which we know that the weight/weight percent concentration, we use the following formula:

concentration / 100 = solute mass / solution mass

solute mass = (concentration × solution mass) / 100

solute mass (butanedioic acid mass) = (5 × 10) / 100 = 0.5 g

number of moles = mass / molar weight

number of moles of butanedioic acid = 0.5 / 118 = 0.04237 moles

Knowing the chemical reaction we devise the following reasoning:

if        1 mole of butanoic acid reacts with 2 moles of sodium hydroxide

then   0.04237 moles of butanoic acid reacts with X moles of sodium hydroxide

X = (0.04237 × 2) / 1 = 0.08474 moles of sodium hydroxide

If the concentration of the titrant, sodium hydroxide solution, is 0.1001 moles / 1000 g of solution the we devise the following reasoning:

if there are         0.1001 moles of sodium hydroxide in 1000 g of solution

then there are   0.08474 moles of sodium hydroxide in Y g of solution

Y = (0.08474 × 1000) / 0.1001 = 846.6 g of solution
