The reaction of a metal with oxygen to form rust is called as redox reaction.

Explanation:

The process during which the surface of metal reacts with the oxygen ions present in air, it has tendency to get oxidized that is formation of an oxide layer on the surface of the metal. Generally, it occurs when metals like iron comes in contact with moisture or water. So the oxygen in moisture reacts with iron giving its electron and getting oxidized and reducing the surface of metal by forming metal oxide. So the complete process of formation of rust is termed as redox reaction. As here both oxidation and reduction is taking place.

Tju [1.3M]
When equilibrium has been reached so, according to this formula we can get the specific heat of the unknown metal and from it, we can define the metal as each metal has its specific heat:

Mw*Cw*ΔTw = Mm*Cm*ΔTm

when 
Mw → mass of water
Cw → specific heat of water
ΔTw → difference in temperature for water 

Mm→ mass of metal
Cw→ specific heat of the metal
ΔTm → difference in temperature for metal

by substitution:

100g * 4.18 * (40-39.8) = 8.23 g * Cm * (50-40)

∴ Cm = 83.6 / 82.3 = 1.02 J/g.°C

when the Cm of the Magnesium ∴ the unknown metal is Mg

At exactly 2:00 PM, speedy the hermit crab crawl onto a meter stick starting at the 10 cm mark. If he reaches the 60 cm mark at
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

speed=5cm/minute

Explanation:

Given at 2:00PM the hermit is at 10cm mark

Also given that the hermit reaches 60cm mark at 2:10PM

Therefore the time elapsed is  10 minutes = 10\times 60=600 seconds

the distance travelled by the hermit is 60-10=50cm=0.5m

We know that

speed=\frac{distane}{time}

speed=\frac{0.5}{600}

speed = 8.3\times 10^{-4} m/sec=5cm/minute
