Step 1: Separate the whole reaction into two half-reactions
HCOOH → CO2 MnO4- → Mn2+
Step 2: Balance the non-hydrogen and non-oxygen elements first
HCOOH → CO2 MnO4- → Mn2+
(C is balanced) (Mn is balanced)
Step 3: Balance oxygen by adding H2O(l) to the side that needs oxygen (1 O : 1 H2O)
HCOOH → CO2 MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O
Step 4: Balance hydrogen by adding H+ to the side that needs hydrogen (1 H: 1 H+)
HCOOH → CO2 + 2H+ 8H+ + MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O
Step 5: Balance the charges: add electrons to the more positive side (or less negative side)
HCOOH → CO2 + 2H+ 8H+ + MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O
Reactants Products Reactants Products
HCOOH = 0 2H+ = +2 8H+ =+8 Mn2+ =+2
__MnO4- = -1________________________
Overall = 0 +2 +7 overall = +2

0 +2
Step 6: Balance electrons on the two half-reactions
5[HCOOH → CO2 + 2H+ +2e-]
2[5e- + 8H+ + MnO4- → Mn2+ + 4H2O]
5HCOOH → 5CO2 + 10H+ + 10e-
10e- + 16H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O
Step 7: Get the overall reaction by adding the two reaction.
5HCOOH → 5CO2 + 10H+ + 10e-
10e- + 16H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O
5HCOOH + 6H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O + 5CO2
Balanced Redox Reaction:
5HCOOH + 6H+ + 2MnO4- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O + 5CO2

how do ions impact your life
Answer:
Increasing your concentration of negative ions is a very important way to improve your health for a variety of reasons. They work to increase serotonin levels in your body, which improves mood and balances your mental health, helping combat depression and anxiety.

How to find valency?
Answer:
ork out which of the displacement (S), initial velocity (U), acceleration (A) and time (T) you have to solve for final velocity (V).
If you have U, A and T, use V = U + AT.
If you have S, U and T, use V = 2(S/T) - U.
If you have S, U and A, use V = SQRT(U2 + 2AS)
What happens to the temperature and density of the material between points B and C?
Answer:
Temperature decreases and density increases
Explanation:
Let us remember that density of a material increases as the temperature of the material decreases. So the cooler a material becomes, the denser it becomes also.
Between points B and C, the material rapidly cools down and the temperature decreases accordingly. This ultimately results in an increase in density since cooler materials are denser than hot materials.

Question 3 (10 points)
James is trying to calculate the wavelength of a wave. The frequency of the wave is 10 Hz and the speed of the wave is 50 m/s. What is the
wavelength? Show your work.
M
Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other. The wave with the greatest frequency has the shortest wavelength. Twice the frequency means one-half the wavelength. For this reason, the wavelength ratio is the inverse of the frequency ratio.

The type of response when a plant moves away from the stimulus
Answer:
A tropism is a turning toward or away from a stimulus in the environment. Growing toward gravity is called geotropism. Plants also exhibit phototropism, or growing toward a light source. This response is controlled by a plant growth hormone called auxin.

Which element is oxidized in the reaction below?
2Na+ Br2 → 2NaBr
Answer:
Bromine
Explanation:
Br2 is an oxidizing agent, Na is a reducing agent.
What determines which element an atom is ?
The number of neutrons
The number of electrons
The size of the atom
The number of protons
The mass number of an atom is equal to the number of protons plus the number of neutrons that it contains. In other words, the number of neutrons in any atom is its mass number minus its atomic number.

This represents your theoretical yield. If the percent yield is 100%, the actual yield will be equal to the theoretical yield. However, after you do the experiment you discover that only 6.50 g of water were produced.
Since less than what was calculated was actually produced, it means that the reaction's percent yield must be smaller than 100%. This is confirmed by

5. Water has a specific heat of about 4 J/Kg. It has a heat of fusion
of about 330 J/g. A 100-g ice cube is added to'a container with 400 g of room temperature (25°C) water. Is the final 500 g of water
A. below 0°C
B. slightly above 0°C
C. close to 25°C
D. near the middle of 0°C and 25°C
Answer:
The answer is slightly above 0°C.
Explanation:
The ice melts and absorbs 330 J/g × 100 g = 33000 joules.
Cooling 400 g of water from 25°C to 0°C requires
4 J/K-g × 400 g × 25°C = 40000 joules
The heat taken to melt is almost enough to cool the water all of the way to 0°C.
The answer is slightly above 0°C.

describe a chemical test for water. Give the test and the result
Answer:
Pure copper(II) sulfate is white. It is also known as anhydrous copper(II) sulfate because it has no water in it.
When water is present in a sample of copper(II) sulfate it turns blue. It is still a dry solid, because the individual water molecules are trapped within the ionic lattice surrounding the copper(II) ions. Solutions of copper(II) sulfate are also blue.
This colour change can be used to detect the presence of water (or water vapour).
what did you learn in chemistry?
Compounds X has the formula C7H15Cl; Y is C7H15Br. X undergoes base-promoted E2 elimination to give a single alkene product Z. Y likewise reacts under similar conditions to give a single alkene product that is isomeric with Z Catalytic hydrogenation of Z affords 3-ethylpentane. X readily reacts in SN2 fashion with sodium iodide in acetone. Y does not undergo a similar SN2 reaction. Propose structures for X and Y.
Answer:
See explanation and image attached
Explanation:
Let us examine the statements in the question carefully. First of all, we will discover that the products of the E2 elimination of the both compounds are isomeric. However Y does not undergo SN2 reaction as X does.
The fact that SN2 reaction does not occur in Y confirms that the bromine atom is attached to a tertiary carbon atom and SN2 reaction does not occur due to steric hinderance. Since X undergoes SN2 reaction in aprotic solvent, the chlorine atom must be attached to a secondary carbon atom.
However, E2 reactions does occur with tertiary alkyl halides when strong bases such as OH^- or RO^- are used.
The question also stated that the catalytic hydrogenation of Z affords 3-ethylpentane.
Putting all these together, the structures of X and Y have been suggested in the image attached to this answer.
Describe and explain one real-life and/or recent example of how scientific knowledge had to change or adapt in the face of new discoveries.
OR
Describe and explain one old (i.e. not accepted anymore...) scientific model or theory. Then, explain why or how that old model had to change.
Answer: Science is a particular way of knowing about the world. In science, explanations are restricted to those that can be inferred from confirmable data—the results obtained through observations and experiments that can be substantiated by other scientists. Anything that can be observed or measured is amenable to scientific investigation. Explanations that cannot be based on empirical evidence are not a part of science.
Explanation:
Answer:
Modeling can help scientists study things that they can’t directly observe. Plesiosaurs no longer exist. So, scientists can’t directly see how they moved their flippers. However, they can use existing evidence—the fossil structures of plesiosaurs—to bring these organisms to life in a computer model.
