In redox  reaction electrons  are   transferred   

Redox  reaction  involve  both  reducing of b  agent and oxidizing agent. reducing agent   acts as electrons  donor  while oxidizing agent   acts as electron  acceptor
 for example formation of   Hydrogen fluoride  (HF)

that is  H2 + F2 =  HF

by  breaking the equation

H2 = 2 H^+  2e-
F2 + 2e= 2f-

hydrogen  move from oxidation from zero( 0 )to  positive  one   ( +1 )therefore  hydrogen is oxidized.  Fluorine move from  oxidation  state of  zero(0) to oxidation state of negative  one(-1)  therefore fluorine is reduced.

Avogadros number is used to determine the number of subatomic particles in an atom. True or false
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Avogadro's number is not used to determine the number of subatomic particles in an atom.

Subatomic particles of an atom are the protons, neutrons and electrons.

The protons are the positively charged particles in an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges

Electrons carry negative charges.

 The number of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom are experimentally determine using spectrometric techniques.

What is the halflife of a radioisotope if a 20-g sample becomes 10g after 16 hours
ohaa [14]

Answer:

T½ = 16hours

Explanation:

Final mass (N) = 10g

Initial mass (No) = 20g

Time (t) = 16hours

T½ = ?

T½ = In2 / λ

But λ = ?

In(N/No) = -λt

In(10/20) = -(λ * 16)

In(0.5) = -16λ

-0.693 = -16λ

λ = 0.693 / 16

λ = 0.0433

Note : λ is known as the disintegration constant

T½ = In2 / λ

T½ = 0.693 / 0.0433

T½ = 16hours

The half-life of the sample is 16hours

Water can be formed in the following reaction:
Komok [63]

The  moles  of  oxygen  gas (O2) that is needed is    4  moles


 Explanation

2H2 +O2 → 2H2O

The  moles of O2  is determined using the mole  ratio  of H2:O2

that is from equation  above H2:O2  is 2:1  

If the moles of H2  is 8  moles therefore  the moles  of O2

 = 8 moles x 1/2  = 4 moles
