C2H4 is oxidized and O2 is reduced in both reactions.

<h3>What is oxidation/reduction?</h3>

Oxidation is defined in several ways. Some of the definitions are:

  1. The addition of oxygen or removal of hydrogen
  2. Increase in the oxidation number of atoms
  3. Addition of electronegative or the removal of electropositive elements

Reduction, on the other hand, is defined as:

  1. Removal of oxygen or addition of hydrogen
  2. Decrease in the oxidation number of atoms
  3. Addition of electropositive elements or the removal of electronegative elements.

In the two reactions, oxygen is being added to C2H4. Thus, C2H4 is being oxidized.

The oxidizing agent is O2. In oxidation reactions, the oxidizing agents usually get reduced. Thus, O2 is reduced in both reactions.

What are diatomic molecules and are they compounds? PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Diatomic molecules consist of two atoms that are chemically bonded. The two atoms can be the same or different chemical elements. As for whether or not they are compounds, there is not technically an answer. This is because all compounds are molecules, but not all molecules are compounds. For example diatomic molecules that comprise the chemical compounds nitric acid, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen chloride are made up of two different elements.  As you can see, most diatomic molecules are not made up of the same kind of elements and not every diatomic molecule comprises a chemical compound.

hope this helps :)

44. Convert the following. Express your answers in
professor190 [17]

Answer:

A =  0.75 ×10² KJ.

B = 3.9 ×10³ dg

C = 0.22 × 10² μl.

Explanation:

A =  7.5 ×10⁴ j to kilo joules

7.5 ×10⁴ / 1000 = 0.75 ×10² KJ.

Joule is the smaller unit while kilo joule is the larger unit. One kilo joule equals to the thousand joule that's why we will divide the given value by 1000 in order to convert into KJ.

B = 3.9 ×10⁵ mg to decigrams.

3.9 ×10⁵ / 100 = 3.9 ×10³ dg

Decigram is larger unit while milligram is smaller unit. One decigram is equal to the 100 milligram. In order to convert the given value into  decigram we have to divide the value by 100.

C = 2.21 ×10⁻⁴ dL to micorliters

2.21 ×10⁻⁴ ×10⁵ = 0.22 × 10² μl.

Deciliter is bigger unit then micro liter . One deciliter equals to the 100000 micro liters. In order to convert the dL into micro liter we have to multiply the given value with 100000.

Convert -12.00 degrees Celsius to the unit Kelvin. 296.15 K 261.15 K -285.15 K -162.85 K
Gre4nikov [31]

To convert Celsius to kelvin, we need to know the formula. Kelvin = Celsius + 273.15. Now, we can figure out how many degrees kelvin -12 degrees Celsius is.


Kelvin = -12 + 273.15

Kelvin = 261.15
