Oxidation state is a number that is assigned to an element in a chemical combination. The number represents the number of electrons that an atom can gain, loses, or share when chemically bonding with an atom of another element. In this case the oxidation state or the oxidation number of Ca(NO3)2 is Zero, since its an electrically neutral compound. Thus the sum of oxidation number of calcium, nitrogen and oxygen is zero.
Answer: -
Hydrogen peroxide breaks down into water and oxygen.
2H₂O₂ → 2H₂O + O₂
The yeast present contains an enzyme called catalase which catalyses the reaction.
More the amount of the catalyst added, faster will be the decomposition of the hydrogen peroxide.
Thus if we added more than 5 mL of yeast solution to the 2H₂O₂, the breakdown would occur faster. Thus the bubbles and the accompanying fizz would be much more.
Answer: Na, S, Cl
Explanation:
Atomic size decreases as one moves from left to right on the periodic table with elements in the same period. This is as a result of the electrons increasing in the outer circle and thus being drawn to the protons in the nucleus which will lead to the outer shell area decreasing.
Sodium (Na) comes before Sulfur (S) which comes before Chlorine (S) so this is the decreasing order as they are all in the same period.
