Xenon trioxide, XeO3, reacts with aqueous base to form the xenate anion, HXeO4. This ion reacts further with OH to form the perxenate anion, XeO64, in the following reaction: 2HXeO4(aq)+2OH(aq)XeO64(aq)+Xe(g)+O2(g)+2H2O(l) Identify the elements that are oxidized and reduced in this reaction. You will note that the equation is balanced with respect to the number of atoms on either side. Verify that the redox part of this equation is also balanced, that is, that the extents of oxidation and reduction are also equal.
One of the few industrial-scale processes that produce organic compounds electrochemically is used by the Monsanto Company to produce1,4-dicyanobutane. The reduction reaction is 2CH2CHCH+2H++2eNC(CH2)4CN The NC(CH2)4CN is then chemically reduced using hydrogen gas to H2N(CH2)6NH2, which is used in the production of nylon. What current must be used to produce 150.kg NC(CH2)4CN per hour?
