Answer:D. corundum

Explanation:

Corundum is a hard mineral. It is tough and stable in nature. It is the hardest mineral after diamond. It remains unaffected by the treatment of acids and environmental agents. Translucent brown color corundum is commonly found in nature.

A cup of hot water loses 265 cal
elixir [45]

Answer:

-1071 Joules

Explanation:

The Joule was introduced as the SI unit for energy in 1925.  One calorie is equal to approximately 4.184 joules(J).  This is a conversion factor that we can write two ways:

(1cal/4.184J) or (4.184J/1cal)

(265 cal)*(4.184J/1cal) = 1071 J

Since the energy is leaving the system, it should be written with a minus sign:  -1071J

In a galvanic cell, electrons are transferred from one half cell to the other as the redox reaction progresses. what happens in
Sidana [21]

The half cell in which the electrode gains electrons is where reduction occurs, and the half cell in which the electrode loses electrons is where oxidation occurs.

<h3><u>What is a Galvanic cell ?</u></h3>

Voltaic or galvanic cells are electrochemical devices that use spontaneous oxidation-reduction events to generate electricity. In order to balance the overall equation and highlight the actual chemical changes, it is frequently advantageous to divide the oxidation-reduction reactions into half-reactions while constructing the equations.

Two half-cells make up most electrochemical cells. The half-cells allow electricity to pass via an external wire by separating the oxidation half-reaction from the reduction half-reaction.

<h3><u>Oxidation:</u></h3>

The anode is located in one half-cell, which is often shown on the left side of a figure. On the anode, oxidation takes place. In the opposite half-cell, the anode and cathode are linked.

<h3><u>Reduction:</u></h3>

The second half-cell, cathode, which is frequently displayed on a figure's right side. The cathode is where reduction happens. The circuit is completed and current can flow by adding a salt bridge.

Which represents the self ionization of water at 25 degrees
gayaneshka [121]
This question comes with four answer choices:

<span>A. H2O + H2O ⇄ 2H2 + O2

B. H2O + H2O⇄  H2O2 + H2

C. H2O + H2O ⇄ 4H+ + 2O2-

D. H2O + H2O ⇄  H3O+ + OH-

Answer: option </span><span>D. H2O + H2O ⇄  H3O+ + OH-

(the +sign next to H3O is a superscript, as well as the - sing next to OH)

Explanation:

The self-ionization of water, or autodissociation, produces the two ions H3O(+) and OH(-). The presence of ions is what explain the electrical conductivity of pure water.

</span><span>In this, one molecule of H2O loses a proton (H+) (deprotonates) to become a hydroxide ion, OH−. Then, he <span>hydrogen ion, H+</span>, immediately protonates another water molecule to form hydronium, H3O+.
