What is the balanced equation for the reaction between hydrogen and chlorine gas?

Back

H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) → 2HCl(g)

Front

How do you calculate the volume of gas produced in a reaction at room temperature and pressure (r.t.p.)?

Back

Use the molar volume of gas at r.t.p., which is 24 L/mol, and the stoichiometry of the balanced equation.

Front

Define a reducing agent in a chemical reaction.

Back

A reducing agent is a substance that donates electrons to another substance, causing the other substance to be reduced.

Front

What is the difference between oxidation and reduction?

Back

Oxidation is the loss of electrons, while reduction is the gain of electrons.

Front

What is the significance of the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation?

Back

Coefficients indicate the relative amounts of reactants and products involved in the reaction.
