Element’s oxidation number decrease that because that element has received electrons from another element

Explanation:

A reduction in oxidation state is known as a reduction. Such reactions include the formal removal of electrons: a net gain in electrons moving a reduction, and a clear loss of electrons being an oxidation.

An oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction is a type of synthetic reaction that involves a transfer of particles between two species. An oxidation-reduction reaction is any synthetic reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion quarters by winning or missing an electron.

If you walk 30 meters forwards, and then turn around and walk 25 meters backwards, what is the distance that you walked? What di
xeze [42]

Given :

Walk in forward direction is 30 m .

Walk in backward direction is 25 m .

To Find :

The distance and displacement .

Solution :

We know , distance is total distance covered and displacement is distance between final and initial position .

So , distance travelled is :

D = 30 + 25 m = 55 m .

Now , we first move 30 m in forward direction and then 25 m in backward direction .

So , displacement is :

D = 30 - 25 m = 5 m .

Therefore , distance and displacement covered is 55 m and 5 m respectively .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Vladimir79 [104]
Their relative speed is the sum of 60 and 40 or 100km/hr. They will travel the 150km in 1.5 hrs. When two object approach each other, the closing speed is just the sum of the speeds, therefore, the closing speed is your case is 100kph. So they will meet in 1.5 hours.
