Interpretation:
For each of the given redox reactions, the substance being oxidized, reduced, the oxidizing agent, and the reducing agent should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Oxidation is defined as the addition of oxygen or loss of electrons. A substance that undergoes oxidation is said to be oxidized. The substance that is oxidized is called as a reducing agent.
Reduction is defined as the addition of hydrogen or gain of electrons. A substance that undergoes reduction is said to be reduced. The substance that is reduced is known as an oxidizing agent.

- The photolysis of H3C–N=N–C2H5 involves the breaking of the single bonds shown. According to this, in addition to N2, what products would be obtained primarily if the reaction were carried out in the gas phase or in solution in an inert solvent?arrow_forwardGiven a keto-enol tautomerization reaction, which is greatly influenced by the type of solvent, indicate which of the following solvent properties cannot be considered a "solvent effect"?(A) Dielectric constant(B) Polarity(C) Hydrogen bonding capacity(D) Temperaturearrow_forwardIn solution reactions, what does "solvent effect" mean?arrow_forward
- How to solvearrow_forwardIndicate the concentration and ionic strength ranges to which the Debye-Huckel equation can be applied. And the Davies equation?arrow_forwardIf the ionic strength (I) of a solution is very low, the Debye-Huckel equation is used. If I is higher, the Davies equation is used. What is the correct value for I to use one or the other?arrow_forward
- In both the Debye-Huckel equation and the Davies equation, there is a constant A. I see that sometimes it appears as 0.51 and other times as 1.02. Explain why one or the other value is used.arrow_forwardThe two equations are forms of the Davies equation, used in thermodynamics for activity coefficients: ال log Y₁ = -Az² - 0,31 log = Az² - 0,31 1 + √Ĩ 1 + √√ k These equations are consistent and imply that Yi = Is this last equation correct? karrow_forwardThe two equations are forms of the Davies equation, used in thermodynamics for activity coefficients: ال log Y₁ = -Az² - 0,31 log = Az² - 0,31 1 + √Ĩ 1 + √√ k These equations are consistent and imply that Yi = Is this last equation correct? karrow_forward
- For the Davies equation, both expressions are correct: log Y₁ = -Az² √i - 0,31 1 + √ k log- = Az - 0,31 k 1 + √Ĩarrow_forwardk In Davies' equation log y₁ = log- log y₁ = log | = -Az² + ✓// k A is a constant that always equals 1.02.
