Acidified K2Cr207 solution turns green when S02 gas is passed through it due to formation of (a) Cr2(SO4)3 (b) CrO42- (c) Cr2(SO3)3 (d) CrSO4

Answer»

(a)cr2(so4)3Explanation:This reaction is taken as an EXPERIMENTAL VERIFICATION for the presence of sulphur dioxide gas (SO2). The equation for the reaction may be stated as follows:- K2CR2O7 + H2SO4 + 3SO2 ——— K2SO4 + Cr2(SO4)3 + H2O. The orange-coloured dichromate solution will turn green due to the formation of CHROMIUM(III) sulphate, Cr2(SO4)3. It is a redox reaction. Here:- The oxidising agent is potassium dichromate and the reducing agent is sulphur dioxide. Hope it HELPS!!!!

Answer»

Option (d) is the RIGHT answer Explanation:Due to presence of UNPAIRED d- orbital electrons. TI3+ has 1 d orbital ELECTRON and is purple in color. Ni2+ has 8 d orbital electron and has Green color.

6.

Which of the following is most stable in aqueous solution? (a) Mn2+ (b) Cr3+ (c) V3+ (d) Ti3+

Answer»

rect option is Cr3+Explanation:Cr3+ has an electronic configuration of [Ar] 3d3. It has three unpaired electrons. This makes it highly stable in the AQUEOUS solution. Water has two hydrogen and one oxygen which means it dissolves SUBSTANCE that has the ability to donate electrons but crystal field spiting concept applies in CASE of  Cr3+ . According to the THEORY, it has t2g in half filled. So, it has no electrons to donate which makes it more stable in water.Learn more about stability of ions from the link below brainly.in/question/13113225

Explain giving a reason for the following situation: In aqueous medium, HCl is a stronger acid than HF. [Foreign 2011]

Answer»

why in aqueous medium HCl is stronger acid than HF. ... The SIZE of CL- ion being larger than F- ion, the HCl bond is weaker than HF bond. So it can break(dissociate) more easily and LIBERATE H+ ions easily and hence is a stronger acid.msrk mea sbrainlist plz

Which type of matter would elements fall under, and why? Thanks!

Answer»

hey mate!!Every element can EXIST in the 3 basic STATES: gas, liquid, solid. Explanation:It is just a matter of enough freezing and HIGH PRESSURE (to solidify gases, even Helium) or enough heat and low pressure (to vaporize metals, even tungsten). At even higher temperatures the gas can ionize, which can be CONSIDERED a 4th state of matter. hope it helps

Although the H-bonding in hydrogen fluoride is much stronger than that in water, yet water has a much higher boiling point than hydrogen fluoride. Why? [Foreign 2012]

Answer»

In a molecule of WATER, there are two hydrogen bond donors, while a hydrogen fluoride molecule only has one donor. There is only one donor in HF, but there are 2 hydrogen ATOMS in H 2 O. The oxygen molecule in water has two lone PAIRS which are capable of accepting two hydrogen bonds. THEREFORE, a single water molecule can have up to 4 hydrogen bonds, i.e., 1 for each hydrogen and 2 for the oxygen. On the other hand, HF can only undergo 2 hydrogen bonds per molecule.

Despite lower value of its electron gain enthalpy with negative sign, fluorine (F2) is a stronger oxidising agent than Cl2. [Delhi 2019; AI 2012; DoE]

Answer»

In addition, its small size, the hydration energy of FLUORINE is much HIGHER than that of chlorine. So, the LATTER two factors more than compensate for the less negative electron gain enthalpy of fluorine. Thus, fluorine is a much STRONGER oxidizing agent than chlorine.

Fluorine does not exhibit any positive oxidation state. Why? [Delhi 2013]

Answer»

Fluorine is RELATIVELY SMALLER in size and is ELEMENT with high ELECTRONEGATIVE property in periodic table .for fluorine to exibit any positive oxidation state it has to be bounded to negative element even HIGHER than it which is not possible, thus fluorine doesn't exibit positive oxidation state.hope the answer will help you ❤☺

28.

Oxygen does not show +4 and +6 oxidation states like sulphur. Why?

Answer»

tion:Sulphur shows +4 &. +6 oxidation states DUE to the presence of vacant 3d ORBITALS to which electrons can be promoted from 3s and 3p filled orbitals. Since oxygen atom does not have 2d orbitals, no ELECTORN promotion is possible in this case. THEREFORE, oxygen cannot show +4 &. +6 oxidation states in compounds.

29.
