Answer:
OCO
Another way of writing CO₂
Explanation:
A reaction equation has <u>reactants on the left</u> and <u>products on the right</u>.
The reactants are carbon and oxygen. The product is carbon dioxide.
C + O₂ → CO₂
You might see the equation both ways.
C + O₂ → OCO
C + O₂ in the products would mean no reaction has occurred. The problem can <u>solid carbon can burn in oxygen</u>, so a reaction will occur. For no reaction, you would put "NR" in the products.
<u>OCO is the structural way of writing CO₂.</u> Both have one carbon atom (C) and two oxygen atoms (O).
C + 2O is not possible. Oxygen, if alone, has to be at least O₂ because it's a <u>diatomic molecule</u>.
The two molecules will only react if they have enough energy. By heating the mixture, you are raising the energy levels of the molecules involved in the reaction. Increasing temperature also means the molecules are moving around faster and will therefore "bump" into each other more often.
The copper wire was sanded before burning in order to make sure that copper metal was exposed on the surface of the wire.
Answer: B
Explanation
The copper wire when placed in atmosphere without coating leads to oxidation of copper metal with respect to the impurities present in the atmosphere.
As copper is electropositive in nature, so electronegative ions present in the universe will try to react with copper and the copper will react easily with other elements.
So generally copper wire is coated with color or polymer coating.
In this case, the copper wire without any coating is sanded, so that the eddy sheets or polishing materials on friction with copper wire will remove the impurities by the electrostatic law of conservation of charges and charge transfer.
As the impurities are removed when copper wire is sanded, the copper atoms will be exposed on the surface of the wire leading to burning of copper in the copper wire.
yes
