Oxidation is a process when an atom, a group of atoms, or an ion loses electrons.
For example,
Cu⁰ -------> Cu⁺² + 2e⁻. This is an oxidation process.
As we can see an oxidation number was 0, and it became +2. The oxidation number is increased. Oxidation number of the atom, when an atom has undergone oxidation, increases.
So, answer is b.False.
In sodium there are 11 electrons
In chlorine there are 17 electrons
There are 17 protons in chlorine
There are 11 protons in sodium
I’m not sure what an octet is I study in a British system if there’s anything else you’re not sure of search the Internet it has all the answers
It depends on the number of valence electrons required to make octet or duplet( in case of H)
. For example, Nitrogen(atomic number = 7) has electronic configuration(2,5) which means nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and requires 3 more electrons to complete its octet. After gaining 3 electrons from atoms of an element with less electronegativity than N, it forms nitride ion (
).
Hope this helps.
Answer is: c. It is incorrect because sodium phosphate is a compound that has a single composition.
Sodium phosphate is chemical compound composed of atoms connected with chemical bonds.
Pure substance is made of only one type of atom (element) or only one type of molecule (compound), it has definite and constant composition with distinct chemical properties.
Pure substances can be separated chemically, not physically, that is difference between pure substances and mixtures.
Answer:
C a chemical reaction formed
Explanation:
if something changes smell and nothing else it is a chemical reaction, every other answer does not make sense
