Concept Introduction:
Redox reactions are the reactions in which both oxidation and reduction takes place simultaneously. Oxidation is the removal electron from an atom or ion. Oxidation process increases the oxidation number. Reduction is the addition of electron to an atom or ion. Reduction process decreases the oxidation number. The
Mole is the mass of the substance that is having
Molar concentration or molarity is the ratio of number of moles of solute to the volume of the solution in litre.

- An electrode is prepared from liquid mercury in contact with a saturated solution of mercury(I) chloride, Hg2Cl, containing 1.00 M Cl . The cell potential of the voltaic cell constructed by connecting this electrode as the cathode to the standard hydrogen half-cell as the anode is 0.268 V. What is the solubility product of mercury(I) chloride?arrow_forwardOrder the following oxidizing agents by increasing strength under standard-state conditions: O2(g); MnO4(aq); NO3 (aq) (in acidic solution ).arrow_forwardThe blood alcohol (C2H5OH) level can be determined by titrating a sample of blood plasma with an acidic potassium di-chromate solution, resulting in the production of Cr3+ (aq) and carbon dioxide. The reaction can be monitored because the dichromate ion (Cr2O72) is orange in solution, and the Cr3+ ion is green. The balanced equations is 16H+(aq) + 2Cr2O72(aq) + C2H5OH(aq) 4Cr4+(aq) + 2CO2(g) + 11H2O(l) This reaction is an oxidationreduction reaction. What species is reduced, and what species is oxidized? How many electrons are transferred in the balanced equation above?arrow_forward
