The compound is sodium chloride
A reducing agent is one which is oxidised in the reaction itself. When you take into account the oxidation numbers you will see that the Cl- ions are oxidised from an oxidation number of -1 to 0 in Cl2. Therefore Cl- ions are the reducing agent.
Answer:
see explanation
Explanation:
To determine limiting reactant divide mole quantities of reactants by the respective coefficient in the balanced equation. The smaller value is the limiting reactant.
P₄ + 5O₂ => 2P₂O₅
12/1 = 12 15/5 = 3
O₂ is the limiting reactant. P₄ will be in excess when rxn stops.
Answer:
The catalyzed reaction will take 2.85 seconds to occur.
Explanation:
The activation energy of a reaction is given by:
For the reaction without catalyst we have:
(1)
And for the reaction with the catalyst:
(2)
Assuming that frequency factor (A) and the temperature (T) are constant, by dividing equation (1) with equation (2) we have:
Since the reaction rate is related to the time as follow:
And assuming that the initial concentrations ([R]) are the same, we have:
Therefore, the catalyzed reaction will take 2.85 seconds to occur.
