Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5.25E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The given reactionis to be classified as redox or nonredox.
Concept introduction:
In redox reactions, the process oxidation and reduction takes place simultaneously. The process of oxidation takes place when electrons are lost (increase in oxidation number) and the process of reduction takes place when electrons are added (decrease in oxidation number). In redox reactions, the substance which is oxidized (lose electrons) is known as reducing agent and the one which is reduced (accepts electron) is known as oxidizing agent. Thus, for oxidizing agent oxidation number decreases and for reducing agent it increases.

2. Platinum and other group 10 metals often act as solid phase hydrogenation catalysts for
unsaturated hydrocarbons such as propylene, CH3CHCH2. In order for the reaction to be
catalyzed the propylene molecules must first adsorb onto the surface. In order to completely
cover the surface of a piece of platinum that has an area of 1.50 cm² with propylene, a total
of 3.45 x 10¹7 molecules are needed. Determine the mass of the propylene molecules that
have been absorbed onto the platinum surface.

2. (a) Many main group oxides form acidic solutions when added to water. For example solid
tetraphosphorous decaoxide reacts with water to produce phosphoric acid. Write a balanced
chemical equation for this reaction.
(b) Calcium phosphate reacts with silicon dioxide and carbon graphite at elevated temperatures
to produce white phosphorous (P4) as a gas along with calcium silicate (Silcate ion is SiO3²-)
and carbon monoxide. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction.
