Which describes the oxidizing agent in a chemical reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
IRISSAK [1]2 years ago
6 0

The statement that describes the oxidizing agent in a chemical reaction is the substance that is reduced because it gains electrons (option D).

<h3>What is a redox reaction?</h3>

A redox reaction is a chemical reaction in which some of the atoms have their oxidation number changed.

In a redox reaction, there are oxidizing and reducing agents. The oxidizing agent is the substance that receives electrons from another substance, hence, becoming reduced.

Therefore, the statement that describes the oxidizing agent in a chemical reaction is the substance that is reduced because it gains electrons.

Answer:

b. 6.02 x 1023 molecules

Explanation:

The formula mass of ammonia is 14 + 1 × 3 = 17.

The number of moles in 27.6g ammonia is 27.6 ÷ 17 = 1.62 mol.

A mole is 6.02 × 10²³, so the number of hydrogen atoms in a 1.62 moles of ammonia is 1.62 × 6.02 × 10²³ × 3 = 2.93 × 10² atoms.

What elements would likely form an ionic bond?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

b. Mg & Cl

a. transferred

46

Explanation:

Ionic bonds form between metals and non-metals when electrons are transferred from one specie to another.

  • The electrostatic attraction from the resulting ions forms the ionic bonds.
  • A metal is electropositive and will readily donate electrons
  • A non-metal is electronegative and will accept electrons.
  • This creates two oppositely charge ions that attracts by means of ionic bonding.

Since Mg and Cl are the only metal - non-metal pair, and ionic bond will form between them.

2.

  In the specie;

          ₄₇Ag¹⁺

47 is the atomic number of the element Ag.

The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. For a specie in neutral state, the number of protons and electrons are the same.

  • When an atom loses electron, it becomes positively charged.
  • Here Ag has lost one electron and then, the number of electrons becomes 46.
  • The number of protons is still 47
