What is an oxidizing agent ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A substance that tends to bring about oxidation by being reduced and gaining electrons

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

An oxidizing agent is a substance that takes negatively charged electrons "away" from a substance or object; usually taking these electrons for itself it can also transport the electrons from an object and "give" them to another substance or object. The object that has been oxidized will then have a positive charge after losing the negative electrons and the substance receiving the electrons will become negative.

Explanation:

Examples include halogens, potassium nitrate, and nitric acid.

C2H6O(g) + 3O2(g) 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g) Inside the piston of an automobile engine, 0.461 g of ethanol (C2H6O) gas reacts with 0.640 grams of oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water, according to the balanced equation shown above. What is the limiting reagent?

Answers

Answer:

Oxygen is the limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the reaction:

[tex]C_2H_6O(g) + 3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g) + 3H_2O(g)[/tex]

Hence, given the masses of both ethanol and oxygen, we are able to compute the available moles ethanol by:

[tex]n_{C_2H_6O}^{available}=0.461g*\frac{1mol}{46g}=0.01mol C_2H_6O[/tex]

Next, we compute the moles of ethanol that react with the 0.640 grams of oxygen considering their 1:3 molar ratio in the chemical reaction:

[tex]n_{C_2H_6O}^{consumed\ by\ O_2}=0.64gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32gO_2}*\frac{1molC_2H_6O}{3molO_2} =0.0067molC_2H_6O[/tex]

In such a way, since there are 0.01 available moles of ethanol but just 0.0067 moles are reacting, we evidence ethanol is in excess, therefore the oxygen is the limiting reactant.

Best regards.

Answer:

Oxygen O₂ will be the limiting reagent.

Explanation:

C₂H₆O(g) + 3 O₂(g) ⇒ 2 CO₂(g) + 3 H₂O(g)

First of all you must know by stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction) how much mass of each compound reacts. First of all, being:

C: 12 g/moleH: 1 g/moleO: 16 g/mole

the molar mass of each reagent is:

C₂H₆O: 2*12 g/mole + 6* 1 g/mole + 16 g/mole= 46 g/moleO₂: 2*16 g/mole= 32 g/mole

Then, since 1 mol of C₂H₆O and 3 moles of O₂ react by stoichiometry, the amount of mass that reacts is:

C₂H₆O: 1 mole* 46 g/mole= 46 gO₂: 3* 32 g/mole= 96 g

Now you apply a rule of three as follows: if 46 g of C₂H₆O reacts with 96 g of O₂ by stoichiometry, 0.461 g of C₂H₆O with how much mass of O₂ will they react?

[tex]mass of O_{2} =\frac{0.461 grams of C_{2}H_{6} O*96 grams ofO_{2} }{46 grams of C_{2}H_{6} O}[/tex]

mass of O₂= 0.962 grams

But 0.962 grams of O₂ are not available, 0.640 grams are available. Since you have less mass than you need to react with 0.461 g of C₂H₆O, oxygen O₂ will be the limiting reagent.

D. Halogens have a full octet of electrons.

¨Halogens being non metals have greater electronegativities hence, attract electrons and making the statement disputed. Nobel gases are highly stable; this explains why they are nonreactive. They do not form chemical bonds because they only have a little tendency to either gain or lose an electron; on the other hand, halogens are reactive because they only need one additional electron to complete their octet. ¨

If  O2(g) reacts with H2(g) to produce  H2O, what is the volume of H2O obtained from 1 L of O2?

Hint:  Write a balanced equation first!

Answers

Answer:

2L

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction this is illustrated below:

2H2 + O2 —> 2H2O

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L.

1 mole of O2 occupy 22.4L.

2 moles of H2O occupy = 2 x 22.4 = 44.8L.

From the balanced equation above,

22.4L of O2 produced 44.8L of H2O.

Therefore, 1L of O2 will produce = 44.8/22.4 = 2L.

Therefore, 1L of O2 will produce 2L of H2O.

Explanation:

The complete Question was ontained online, albeit, it was incomplete, even from the online source. But the solution is possible based on the part of the question obtained.

Complete Question

Which of the following Noble Gases has a mass of 10.0 g?

A. 2.02 mol Ne B. 0.119 mol Kr C.

Solution

Number of moles = (Mass)/(Molar Mass)

Mass = (Number of moles) × (Molar mass)

Checking the options, one at a time,

A. 2.02 moles of Neon

Number of moles = 2.02 moles

Molar Mass of Neon = 20.1797 g/mol

Mass = 2.02 × 20.1797 = 40.762994 g ≠ 10.0 g

Not the answer.

B. 0.119 moles of Krypton

Number of moles = 0.119 moles

Molar Mass of Krypton = 83.798 g/mol

Mass = 0.119 × 83.798 = 9.971962 g ≈ 10.0 g

This is definitely the answer.

water is a highly polar molecule with strong hydrogen bonding. one of the results of this is that water can climb up a narrow tube. the phenomenom is known as:
A. catapult action (aka trebuchet onfire)
B. capillary action
C. carpel tunnel syndrom
D. capitalization

Answers

Answer:

Option B, Capillary action

Explanation:

Water molecules attach with the molecules of the surface of the container in which they are kept. This is because of the cohesive force within the molecules of water and adhesive force between the molecules of water and other substances.

The water rises up in a capillary tube because of water molecules adhere at the edges thereby creating a meniscus in the upside turned direction. The surface is kept intact by the surface tension

Now capillary action specifically occurs when adhesion to the surface of the container is higher than the cohesion between the water molecules.  

Hence, option B is correct

Give the molecular geometry and number of electron groups for sf4. give the molecular geometry and number of electron groups for . square planar, 6 electron groups square pyramidal, 6 electron groups t-shaped, 5 electron groups octahedral, 6 electron groups seesaw, 5 electron groups

Answers

Answer:

5 electron groups, see saw

Explanation:

During the formation of SF4, the sulfur atom usually bonds with each of four fluorine atoms where 8 of valence electrons are used. The four fluorine atoms have 3 lone pairs of electrons in its octet which will further utilize 24 valence electrons. In addition, two electrons are present as a lone pair on the sulfur atom. We can determine sulfur’s hybridization state by counting of the number of regions of electron density on sulphur (the central atom in the molecule). When bonding takes place there is a formation of 4 single bonds to sulfur and it has 1 lone pair. Looking at this, we can say that the number of regions of electron density is 5. The hybridization state is sp3d.

SF4 molecular geometry is seesaw with one pair of valence electrons. The molecule is polar. The equatorial fluorine atoms have 102° bond angles instead of the actual 120° angle. The axial fluorine atom angle is 173° instead of the actual 180° bond angle.
