Answer:

Explanation:

You need to remember that the oxidation number of H is +1, except when it is in a metal hydrites like NaH, where its oxidation number is -1. Then, the oxidation number of O is -2, but in peroxides is -1. So with these rules you just have to multiply the ox. number with the name of atoms and all the elements in the reaction must sum 0.

Answer:

In chemistry, there are three definitions in common use of the word base, known as Arrhenius bases, Brønsted bases and Lewis bases. All definitions agree that bases are substances which react with acids as ... A ...

Acids are species with pH less than 7, while bases those with pH greater than 7. ... Using Arrhenius' definition, acids are those that produce the hydrogen ion when dissolved in water ( ) while bases produce the hydroxide ion ( ). These ions, when in water, act as charge carriers and can hence conduct electricity.

Acid–base reactions require both an acid and a base. ... For example, according to the Arrhenius definition, the reaction of B If inorganic, determine whether the compound is acidic.

What is the maximum radiation pressure exerted by sunlight in space ( s = 1350 w/m 2) on a flat black surface? a. 2. 25 × 10−5 p
mel-nik [20]

The maximum radiation pressure exerted by sunlight in space on a flat black surface is  4.5 × 10^{-6}  P a. So, the correct option is (b).

Radiation pressure is the name for the force electromagnetic wave particles exert on a surface. It is inversely related to the wave's speed. Given data

Solar constant  ( S )  =  1350W / m ^2

Now, the radiaton pressure is given by

P = 2 S /c

where c is the speed of the light

P = 2 × 1350 /3 × 10 ^8

P = 9 × 10^{-6}  P a

For a black surface, P = 4.5× 10^{-6}  P a

Therefore, maximum radiation pressure exerted by sunlight in space on a flat black surface is  4.5 × 10^{-6}  P a

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

"nonmetal, nonmetal"

Explanation:

Oxygen is a non metal and Nitrogen is a non metal. It is 8th element of the periodic table. It is located in period 2 and group 16.

Nitrogen lies at the group 15 of the periodic table. Its atomic no is 7. Its valency is 2.

Hence, the correct option is (c) "nonmetal, nonmetal".
