I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Electrons are both gained and <span>lost during a redox reaction. From the name itself "redox" or reduction-oxidation, it must be that something has reduced and another has gained that something.</span>
Answer:
Cu
Explanation:
Groups 3 - 12 (or groups IIA - IIB) of the periodic table contain transition elements. Transaction elements start from period four (4) of the periodic table. The phrase alludes to the fact that the d sublevel is filling at a lower main energy level than the s sublevel that came before it.
The transition elements' arrangement is inverted from the fill order, with the 4 s filled prior to the actual 3 d begins. The transition elements are commonly referred to as transition metals since they are all metals. They are less reactive than the metals in Groups 1 and 2 and have normal metallic characteristics.
From the options given Cu is the only transition metal in the fourth period on the periodic table.
<span>4 Al + 3 O2 → 2 Al2O3
(10.0 g Al) / (26.98154 g Al/mol) = 0.37062 mol Al
(19.0 g O2) / (31.99886 g O2/mol) = 0.59377 mol O2
0.37062 mole of Al would react completely with 0.37062 x (3/4) = 0.277965 mole of O2, but there is more O2 present than that, so O2 is in excess.
((0.59377 mol O2 initially) - (0.277965 mol O2 reacted)) x (31.99886 g O2/mol) =
10.1 g O2 left over</span><span>
