Write chemical equations and corresponding equilibrium expressions for each of the two ionization steps of carbonic acid. Part A
lesantik [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equations and equilibrium constant expression for each ionization steps is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical formula of carbonic acid is H_2CO_3. It is a diprotic weak acid which means that it will release two hydrogen ions when dissolved in water

The chemical equation for the first dissociation of carbonic acid follows:

               H_2CO_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons H^+(aq.)+HCO_3^-(aq.)

The expression of first equilibrium constant equation follows:

Ka_1=\frac{[H^+][HCO_3^{-}]}{[H_2CO_3]}

The chemical equation for the second dissociation of carbonic acid follows:

               HCO_3^-(aq.)\rightarrow H^+(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)

The expression of second equilibrium constant equation follows:

Ka_2=\frac{[H^+][CO_3^{2-}]}{[HCO_3^-]}

Hence, the chemical equations and equilibrium constant expression for each ionization steps is written above.

What element is being oxidized in the following redox reaction?
gregori [183]

Answer:

C is the element thats has been oxidized.

Explanation:

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

This is a reaction where the manganese from the permanganate, it's reduced to Mn²⁺.

In the oxalic acid, this are the oxidation states:

H: +1

C: +3

O: -2

In the product side, in CO₂ the oxidation states are:

C: +4

O: -2

Carbon from the oxalate has increased the oxidation state, so it has been oxidized.

Mazyrski [523]
<span>The elements in a Periodic Table are grouped according to their classifications. The major classifications are Metals, Non-metals, and Metalloids. Their level of reactivity can be gauged by simply looking at their position in the table. For Metals, their reactivity increases as you move to the left then going down. Non-metal reactivity increases as you move to the right then going up, starting at the bottom of the table.</span>
