Answer: D
Explanation:
A reducing agent is a species that reduces other compounds, and is thereby oxidized. The whole compound becomes the reducing agent. In other words, of a compound is oxidized, then they are the reducing agent. On the other hand, if the compound is reduced, it is an ozidizing agent.
Since we have established that a reducing agent is the compound being oxidized, we know that A is not our answer. An oxidized compound is losing electrons. Choice A states exactly this.
For B, this is true as we have established this already.
C is also correct. Since a reducing agent loses electrons, it becomes more positive. This makes the oxidation number increase.
D would be our correct answer. It is actually a good oxidizing agent is a metal in a high oxidation state, such as Mn⁷⁺.
Answer:
2 HC₂H₃O₂(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Sr(C₂H₃O₂)₂(aq) + 2 H₂O
Explanation:
Let's consider the reaction between acetic acid and strontium hydroxide. This is a neutralization reaction, in which an acid reacts with a base to form salt and water. The unbalanced equation is:
HC₂H₃O₂(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Sr(C₂H₃O₂)₂(aq) + H₂O
We have 1 acetate ion to the left and 2 to the right, so we will multiply HC₂H₃O₂(aq) by 2.
2 HC₂H₃O₂(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Sr(C₂H₃O₂)₂(aq) + H₂O
Finally, we multiply water by 2 to get the balanced equation.
2 HC₂H₃O₂(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(aq) ⇒ Sr(C₂H₃O₂)₂(aq) + 2 H₂O
The option that would best contrast the real and the model atoms is letter "D. model of an atom is not as small as an actual atom". The size of an atom is said to be no more than 0.1 to 0.5 nanometers. The models are used to proper illustrate the atom's physical attributes. That is why, it needs to be bigger in size.
Answer:
175 meters
Explanation:
As it's velocity is 35m/s
so,
by formula
35 *5
175 meters
Answer:
I assume you mean as in elements
A metal "A metal is a material that, when freshly prepared, polished, or fractured, shows a lustrous appearance, and conducts electricity and heat relatively well. Metals are typically malleable or ductile." (wiki)
a non-metal "In chemistry, a nonmetal is a chemical element that mostly lacks the characteristics of a metal. Physically, a nonmetal tends to have a relatively low melting point, boiling point, and density. A nonmetal is typically brittle when solid and usually has poor thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity." (wiki)
