Answer:

The specie which is oxidized is:- CrO_2^-

The specie which is reduced is:- ClO^-

Explanation:

Oxidation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets increased during this reaction.

X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

For the given chemical reaction:

2CrO_2^- + 6ClO^- + 2H_2O\rightarrow 2CrO_4^{2-} + 3Cl_2 + 4OH^-

The half cell reactions for the above reaction follows:

Oxidation half reaction:  CrO_2^- + 2H_2O + 4OH^-\rightarrow CrO_4^{2-} + 4H_2O + 3e^-

Reduction half reaction:  2ClO^- + 4H_2O + 2e^-\rightarrow Cl_2 + 2H_2O + 4OH^-

Thus, the specie which is oxidized is:- CrO_2^-

The specie which is reduced is:- ClO^-

To 100.0 g water at 25.00 ºc in a well-insulated container is added a block of aluminum initially at 100.0 ºc. the temperature o
11111nata11111 [884]
When the amount of heat gained = the amount of heat loss

so, M*C*ΔTloses = M*C* ΔT gained

when here the water is gained heat as the Ti = 25°C and Tf= 28°C so it gains more heat.

∴( M * C * ΔT )W = (M*C*ΔT) Al

when Mw is the mass of water = 100 g 

and C the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18

and ΔT the change in temperature for water= 28-25 = 3 ° C

and ΔT the change in temperature for Al = 100-28= 72°C

and M Al is the mass of Al block

C is the specific heat capacity of the block = 0.9 

so by substitution:

100 g * 4.18*3 = M Al * 0.9*72

∴ the mass of Al block is = 100 g *4.18 / 0.9*72

                                          = 19.35 g

Identify one disadvantage to each of the following models of electron configuration:
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The disadvantages of each of the given model of electron configuration have been mentioned below:

1). Dot Structures - They take up excess space as they do not display the electron distribution in orbitals.

2). Arrow and line diagrams make the counting of electrons and take up too much space.

3). Written Configurations do not display the electron distribution in orbitals and help in lose counting of electrons easily.

Which is the stronger acid in each of the following pairs? Explain your reasoning.
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:p-hydroxybenzaldehyde is stronger acid to phenol

para-cyanophenol is stronger acid to meta-cyanophenol

o-fluorophenol is stronger acid to p-fluorophenol.

Explanation:

The PKa tool relative to Ph are used to contrast the pairs.

The pKa of phenol is 10. The pKa of p-hydroxybenzaldehyde is 9.24

The pKa for meta-cyanophenol is 8.61 and the pKa for para-cyanophenol is 7.95. 

The pKa value of o-fluorophenol is 8.7, while that of the p-fluorophenol is 9.9. It's obvious that the inductive effect is more dominant at ortho-position, which results in a more acidic nature

The pKa is the pH value at which a chemical species will accept or donate a proton. The lower the pKa, the stronger the acid and the greater the ability to donate a proton in aqueous solution.

What is the density ρh of hot air inside the balloon? assume that this density is uniform throughout the balloon. express the de
enyata [817]

Answer 1) : The density of the hot air inside the balloon can be found out by using ideal gas equation;


PV = nRT;


As n is number of moles and in gases, number of moles along with mass per mole is equal to the density of the gas.


If the moles in the gas are more the density will be more.


here, density (ρ) = mass (m) / volume (V); substituting in the ideal gas equation we get,

ρ = mP / RT


Answer 2) ρ (hot air) = ρ (cold air) X \frac{T_{h}}{T_{c}}

Here according to the formula because T(hot air) >T(cold air),


So, the density of hot air greater than the density of cold air.


The relationship between the ρ (h) = ρ(c) X \frac{T_{h}}{T_{c}}

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The open system evaporates the solvent in the solution

Explanation:

An open system is a system in which exchange of materials and energy can occur. If a TLC set up is left open, then the set up constitutes an open system.

During TLC, the sample is dotted on the plate and inserted into a suitable solvent. The solvent moves up the plate and achieves the required separation of the mixture.

Most of these solvents used used TLC are volatile organic compounds. Therefore, if the TLC set up is left open, the solvent will evaporate leading to poor results after running the TLC experiment.
