Okay so

Qs:
Acidified solutions of iron(II)salts can be titrated using a dilute solution of potassium manganate(VII) ,KMnO4
Use data to write a balanced equation..

Now Im having confusion in all similar questions.
How do I know which equation to use. Will I use Fe+2 reducing to Fe
Or Fe+3 to Fe+3?

Similarly for Manganate.

A generalized answer would be appreciated.

Also, how much electrode potential difference means that the reaction wont occur, like is there a fixed value?
Like Fe+3 reacts with Cl-
Why wont the react,how will we deduce it from cell equations?

MnO4- is an oxidizing agent, in acidic conditions, it would form Mn2+.
The Fe2+ would in turn be oxidized to Fe3+.

E(cell) = E(reduction) - E(oxidation) > 0 for reaction to be feasible.

Re: All Chemistry help here!! Stuck somewhere? Ask here!
that's what I think
not sure though
Moles H+ in excess = 0.001
Total volume = 0.035 L
Concentration= 0.001/0.035= 0.0286
s0 -log(0.0286)= 1.54=PH


I am going to give it a try.

Moles HBr = 0.020 L x 0.200 M =0.0040
Moles NaOH = 0.015 L x 0.200 =0.0030

Moles H+ in excess = 0.0010
Total volume = 0.015 L
Concentration H+ = 0.0010 / 0.015 =0.0667
pH =-log ( 0.06667)
=0.176

hello, i am just new to this community:)
i have one question pls
what happens if for titration u don't get ur results the same as the teacher's or it is not within the range of the teacher's? Do u get the whole titration wrong or will there be any error carrried forward marks?
My cousin just took her exam and she is freaking out as she didn't get the same results as the teacher's

You'll only lose the marks for accuracy.

How many marks would be deducted if i performed the experiment wrong
I didnt add till 45 cm3 as i read it wrong and thought total volume to be 45 cm3 of solution
Would i still be getting marks for graph since i fulfilled all the requirements and 2-3 out of 4 for tabletable and calculations?

It depends how much marks they have allocated for the accuracy and according to that , the examiner will deduct the marks..its not hard and fast rule tht they'll only deduct 3 marks.
yeah you'll.

Can anyone plz explain me in detail about the differences b/w
1. covalent bonding
2. ionic bonding
3.hydrogen bonding ( and how and why hydrogen bonds are formed) ?

Help will be appreciated.

Can i explain that CCl4 is not hydrolysed by water because of the smaller atomic radius so the lone pair of the water molecules cannot be donated to the vacant d orbitals.

4)
Calculate bond enthalpy for every eqn
Example for R, (410*3) + [(-340)+(-410*3)] =-340
P=193
Q=-244
R=-340
S=410

5)
1/2I2 + 3/2cl2 ----> Icl3
Hence enthalpy for both eqn will be halved
Hence enthaply change of formation of Icl3 = -107 + 19 = -88

Help will be appreciated.
Covalent bonding : sharing of electrons; simple molecular structure has low melting and boiling point and bonded with either weak vaan der waals force (co2)or induced dipole induce dipole (I2) giant molecular structures have high mp n bp (sio2, diamond, graphite); cannot conduct electricity except graphite in which one electron is free to carry current.
Ionic bonding: transfer of electrons; all have high mp n bp; can conduct wlectricity in molten state.
Hydrogen bonding : when hydrogen is bonded with very highly electronegative element like F,N,O
