Answer is: thermal conductuction.
Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat<span> through physical contact. </span>Thermal conduction<span> is the transfer of heat</span> by microscopic collisions of particles. <span>Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.
</span>The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient<span>, the cross section of the </span>materials<span> involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.</span>
Answer:
(a) The anode electrode which comprises the zinc electrode being placed in a water solution with low oxygen concentration.
(b) Cathodic reaction is:
⇒ 
Anodic reaction is:
⇒
Explanation:
In the given problem, we have an oxygen-concentration cell consisting of two zinc electrodes. One is immersed in a water solution with a low oxygen concentration and the other in a water solution with a high oxygen concentration. The zinc electrodes are connected by an external copper wire.
(a) Which electrode will corrode?
The electrode that will corrode is the anode electrode which comprises the zinc electrode being placed in a water solution with low oxygen concentration.
(b) Write half-cell reactions for the anodic reaction and the cathodic reaction.
Cathodic reaction is:
⇒ 
Anodic reaction is:
⇒
Answer:
In the given chemical reaction:
Species Oxidized: I⁻
Species Reduced: Fe³⁺
Oxidizing agent: Fe³⁺
Reducing agent: I⁻
As the reaction proceeds, electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺
Explanation:
Redox reaction is a chemical reaction involving the simultaneous movement of electrons thereby causing oxidation of one species and reduction of the other species.
The chemical species that <u><em>gets reduced by gaining electrons </em></u><u>is called an </u><u><em>oxidizing agent</em></u>. Whereas, the chemical species that <u><em>gets oxidized by losing electrons </em></u><u>is called a </u><u><em>reducing agent</em></u><u>.</u>
Given redox reaction: 2Fe³⁺ + 2I⁻ → 2Fe²⁺ + I₂
<u>Oxidation half-reaction</u>: 2 I⁻ + → I₂ + 2 e⁻ ....(1)
<u>Reduction half-reaction</u>: [ Fe³⁺ + 1 e⁻ → Fe²⁺ ] × 2
⇒ 2 Fe³⁺ + 2 e⁻ → 2 Fe²⁺ ....(2)
In the given redox reaction, <u>Fe³⁺ (oxidation state +3) accepts electrons and gets reduced to Fe²⁺ (oxidation state +2) and I⁻ (oxidation state -1) loses electrons and gets oxidized to I₂ (oxidation state 0).</u>
<u>Therefore, Fe³⁺ is the oxidizing agent and I⁻ is the reducing agent and the electrons are transferred from I⁻ to Fe³⁺.</u>
Isn't it nitrogen AND chlorine? Both are nonmetals, and they need to gain electrons in order to bond.
Hope this helps, have a nice day!
