Answer

When oxidation and reduction takes place simultaneously it is called a redox reaction.

Explanation:

Oxidation is the process in which an electron loses an atom, whereas, in reduction an atom gains an atom. when both of these reactions occur simultaneously the process is known as redox.

When a substance is being oxidized, it loses an electron or a hydrogen atom and gains an oxygen atom. Whereas, in reduction it gains an hydrogen atom and loses an oxygen atom. These two cannot happen individually and will always happen simultaneously.

Calculate the molar solubility of fe(oh)2 in pure water. (the value of ksp for fe(oh)2 is 4.87×10−17.)
rosijanka [135]
When we have this balanced equation for a reaction:
Fe(OH)2(s) ↔ Fe+2  + 2OH-

when Fe(OH)2 give 1 mole of Fe+2 & 2 mol of OH-
so we can assume [Fe+2] = X and [OH-] = 2 X
 when Ksp = [Fe+2][OH-]^2
and have Ksp = 4.87x10^-17 
[Fe+2]= X
[OH-] = 2X
so by substitution 
4.87x10^-17 = X*(2X)^2
∴X^3 = 4.8x10^-17 / 4
∴the molar solubility X = 2.3x10^-6 M

What would happen to the block if it had a density of 0.500 kg/L and was placed in the same 100.0 L tank of water?
raketka [301]
I’m not sure if there was important information in the question before this one, but the answer based on the info I have is B.

The density of water is 1kg/L. Since the density of the block is less, it will float.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

At the end of meiosis, there are four cells, each with 23 chromosomes, for a total of 92 chromosomes split between the four cells.

Explanation:

During meiosis, a diploid cell  (46 chromosomes) replicates its DNA (making 92 chromosomes) then undergoes two cell divisions to generate four haploid cells (23 chromosomes).

These haploid cells are the gametes which, during fertilization, fuse to become a zygote with 46 chromosomes.
