2. Balance the following redox reaction that occurs in basic solution.
NO2- (aq) + Al (s) ---> NH3 (g) + Al02- (aq)

3. Describe, in detail, how you'd make 100 mL of a 2.0 M HC1 solution from a 6.0 M HC1 solution. How much solvent do you expect to add? For this essay, you may answer in list form (ie, Step 1 ...etc). Support your answer with calculations to indicate amounts of all liquids.

Equipment available: graduated cylinder, pipet, volumetric flask, beaker, 100 niL of 6.OM HC1, 100 mL of distilled water, 100 mL of tap water

H3PO4 (phosphoric acid) is a strong acid. Strong acids ionize completely. When it dissolves, it will form 1 PO43- ion and 3 H+ ions (if we are talking about one molecule).

Reaction: H3PO4 ----> 3H+ + PO43-

C12H22O11 (sucrose or table sugar) is what is known as a molecular solid. When it dissolves, it does not split up into ions.

HCHOO (formic acid) is a weak acid. If there is a large amount, just a few molecules will dissolve (split into ions). If we are talking about one of these molecule that splits into ions...

Reaction: HCHOO ----> H+ + HCOO-

1. Split into half reactions (group molecules containing the same atom).

NO2-(aq) ----> NH3(g)
Al(s) ----> AlO2-(aq)

2. Add enough H2O to balance O on both sides.

NO2-(aq) ----> NH3(g) + 2 H2O
2 H2O + Al(s) ----> AlO2-(aq)

3. Add H+ to balance H.

7 H+ + NO2-(aq) ----> NH3(g) + 2 H2O
2 H2O + Al(s) ----> AlO2-(aq) + 4 H+

4. Add electrons to balance the charge (electrons have a negative charge).

6 e + 7 H+ + NO2-(aq) ----> NH3(g) + 2 H2O (-6 + 7 + -1 = 0 ----> 0 + 0 = 0 ...
