According to Dalton, every atom in an element has the same mass, and compounds are made up of a particular ratio of several elements. Thus the mass percentages of K, N, and O in potassium nitrate from India and Italy are the same.

The laws of conservation of mass and constant composition served as the foundation for Dalton's theory. In the first section of his thesis, he claims that all matter is composed of indivisible atoms. According to the second component of the theory, the mass and characteristics of every atom in a specific element are the same. Parts of the theory had to be modified based on the existence of subatomic particles and isotopes.

In the reaction 2H2O (1)+ 2Cl^- (aq)= H2(g)+Cl2 (g)+ 2OH^-(aq), which substance is reduced?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:- C. H

Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.

As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.

The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

In H_2O , the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl^- is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in H_2 is zero and in OH^- the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl_2 is 0.

From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.

Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.

Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.

So, the right choice is C.H

Airida [17]
This is because their tails are hydrophobic and their heads are hydrophilic. Hydrophobic meaning dislikes being near water and hydrophilic meaning likes to be near water. Therefore, they will orientate themselves in such a manner that the heads are facing externally and all the tails are facing together protected by the hydrophilic heads. google a photo of lipid chains in water if you are still confused. I'm not sure if that is what you are asking, but I hope it helps.
