A practical pursuit of alchemy was the development of metallurgy practices. As alchemists always tried to turn various metals into other things, metalworking techniques were developed even though their experiments were often unsuccessful.

Write a balanced half-reaction describing the reduction of aqueous chromium(IV) cations to solid chromium.
Aliun [14]

The balanced half-reaction: Cr⁴⁺(aq)+ 4e⁻ → Cr(s).

<span> Chromium(IV) cations gain four electrons and became solid chromium with neutral charge.
</span>Reduction is lowering oxidation number because element or ions gain electrons. 

Oxidation reaction is increasing of oxidation number of element, because element or ion lost electrons in chemical reaction.

A chemist pours 1 mol of zinc granules into one beaker and 1 mol of zinc chloride powder into another beaker. What do the two sa
Oksana_A [137]
Answer is: <span> two samples have in common same amount of substance and same number of particles.
1) There are same amount of substance in both beakers:
n(Zn) = 1 mol.
n(ZnCl</span>₂) = 1 mol.
2) There are same number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions) in both beakers:
N(Zn) = n(Zn) · Na.
N(Zn) = 1 mol · 6.023·10²³ 1/mol = 6.023·10²³ atoms of zinc.
N(ZnCl₂) = n(ZnCl₂) · Na.
N(ZnCl₂) = 1 mol · 6.023·10²³ 1/mol = 6.023·10²³ molecules of zinc(II) chloride.
Na - Avogadro number.

How many grams of antifreeze C2H4(OH)2 would be required per 500 g of water to prevent the water from freezing at a temperature
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

333.7 g.

Explanation:

  • The depression in freezing point of water (ΔTf) due to adding a solute to it is given by: <em>ΔTf = Kf.m.</em>

Where, ΔTf is the depression in water freezing point (ΔTf = 20.0°C).

Kf is the molal freezing point depression constant of the solvent (Kf = 1.86 °C/m).

m is the molality of the solution.

<em>∴ m = ΔTf/Kf</em> = (20.0°C)/(1.86 °C/m) = <em>10.75 m.</em>

molaity (m) is the no. of moles of solute per kg of the solvent.

∵ m = (no. of moles of antifreeze C₂H₄(OH)₂)/(mass of water (kg))

∴ no. of moles of antifreeze C₂H₄(OH)₂ = (m)(mass of water (kg)) = (10.75 m)(0.5 kg) = 5.376 mol.

∵ no. of moles = mass/molar mass.

<em>∴ mass of antifreeze C₂H₄(OH)₂ = no. of moles x molar mass </em>= (5.376 mol)(62.07 g/mol) =<em> 333.7 g.</em>

Which of the following trends is indirectly proportional to effective nuclear charge, Zeff
Julli [10]

Answer : Option C) Atomic Size

Explanation : The atomic radius of the elements is found to be decreasing if we go from left to right in the modern periodic table. Accordingly, Z_{eff} increases as the number of shielding electrons present in the atomic nucleus of the periodic elements which lies in the same row remains constant while the number of protons in each atomic shell increases.

The effective nuclear charge Z_{eff} of an atom is defined as the net positive charge which is felt by the valence electron of the atomic element.

When Z_{eff} is observed to decrease, it is seen that the atomic radius grows in size. So, it explains the inverse relationship between both. This phenomenon occurs, because there is more screening of the electrons from the nucleus taking place, which is observed due to decrease the attraction between the electron and the nucleus.
