Answer:

D) Ba(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → BaCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Explanation:

In a redox reaction, One atom is gaining electrons (Reduction) whereas other is loosing electrons (Oxidation). In the reactions:

A) HBr(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaBr(aq) + H2O(l)

As sodium is always +1 and Br always -1, <em>this is not a redox reaction.</em>

B) NaI(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgI(s) + NaNO3(aq)

Sodium is always +1 and nitrate ion is -1. <em>This is not a redox reaction</em>

C) Pb(C2H3O2)2(aq) + 2 LiBr(aq) → PbBr2(s) + 2 LiC2H3O2(aq)

Acetate ion, C2H3O2 is -1 as Br is -1, lithium is +1 and Pb +2, <em>This is not a redox reactoin</em>

Barium is 0 as Ba(s) but +1 as BaCl2. Is oxidizing

Hydrogen is +1 as HCl but 0 as H2. Is reducting.

This reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction

Electronegativities of the elements Na, Al, P, and Cl follow a specific trend across the period. Based on this trend, an electro

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Electronegativity increases across the period on a periodic table.

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electron to itself.

All elements on the periodic table combines in order to have a complete octet i.e they all want to be like the noble gases, group 0 elements.

This is what drives most atom to combine chemically. By so doing, they either lose or gain electrons.

Cl belongs to the 7th group on the periodic table. It is the second element in this halogen group. Most halogens are notable for their high electronegativity. They have 7 electrons in their outermost shell and would require just an electron to complete their octet.

This makes them highly reactive and combine readily with other elements.

The halogens have a strong attraction for valence electrons. The higher the electronegativity value, the stronger the attraction an atom has for valence electrons.

Most metals like Al and Na are electropositive and readily donates or lose electrons so as to have a complete octet.

How much heat is required to melt 26.0 g of ice at its melting point?

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Heat required to melt 26.0 g of ice at its melting point is 8.66 kJ.

Explanation:

Number of moles of water in 26 g of water: 26× $\frac{1}{18.02}$ moles

=1.44 moles

The enthalpy change for melting ice is called the entlaphy of fusion. Its value is 6.02 kj/mol.

we have relation as:

q = n × ΔH

where:

q = heat

n = moles

Δ H = enthalpy

So calculating we get,

q= 1.44*6.02 kJ

q= 8.66 kJ

We require 8.66 kJ of energy to melt 26g of ice.
