Energy cannot be destroyed or created. Electricity is a form of energy which has to be created from other forms of energy. We have to pay for the creation of electricity because it requires certain resources to transform other energies into electricity.
Answer:
Smelting, process by which a metal is obtained, either as the element or as a simple compound, from its ore by heating beyond the melting point, ordinarily in the presence of oxidizing agents, such as air, or reducing agents, such as coke.
Hope I helped!
Explanation:
The oxidation state of the compound Mn (ClO4)3 is to be determined in this problem. For oxygen, the charge is 2-, the total considering its number of atoms is -24. Mn has a charge of +3. TO compute for Mn, we must achieve zero charge overall hence 3+3x-24=0 where x is the Cl charge. Cl charge, x is +7.
