Answer: It loses electrons to another element.
Explanation:- Oxidation is the process in which an element loses electrons and there is an increase in the oxidation state. On losing electrons it combines with a electronegative element such as oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen etc.
Reduction is the process in which an element gains electrons and there is a decrease in the oxidation state.
A compound is a pure substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more different elements.
A compound may be splitted into simpler substances by chemical reactions, and has different properties to those of the elements that form it.
The composition of a compound is fixed: every piece of a compound has the same kind of atoms, bonded in the same way and proportion.
Some examples of compounds are H₂O, NaCl, H₂O₂, CH₃COOH. As you see, they have a chemical formula which states the kind and number of the atoms that form them.
They are different to mixtures, which are formed by two or more compounds, in a variable proportion, and can be separated by physical media. Some examples of mixtures are the solutions (e.g. NaCl dissolved in H₂O), and some solid mixtures (e.g. a mixture of marbles and sand).
Answer:
Initial rate of the reaction when concentration of hydrogen gas is doubled will be 
.
Explanation:
Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.
Initial rate of the reaction = R = 
![R = k\times [N_2][H_2]^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=R%20%3D%20k%5Ctimes%20%5BN_2%5D%5BH_2%5D%5E3)
![4.0\times 10^5 M/s=k\times [N_2][H_2]^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E5%20M%2Fs%3Dk%5Ctimes%20%5BN_2%5D%5BH_2%5D%5E3)
The initial rate of the reaction when concentration of hydrogen gas is doubled : R'
![[H_2]'=2[H_2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_2%5D%27%3D2%5BH_2%5D)
![R'=k\times [N_2][H_2]'^3=k\times [N_2][2H_2]^3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=R%27%3Dk%5Ctimes%20%5BN_2%5D%5BH_2%5D%27%5E3%3Dk%5Ctimes%20%5BN_2%5D%5B2H_2%5D%5E3)

Initial rate of the reaction when concentration of hydrogen gas is doubled will be .
Answer:
4.5 moles of lithium sulfate are produced.
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of lead sulfate = 2.25 mol
Number of moles of lithium nitrate = 9.62 mol
Number of moles of lithium sulfate = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Pb(SO₄)₂ + 4LiNO₃ → Pb(NO₃)₄ + 2Li₂SO₄
Now we will compare the moles of lithium sulfate with lead sulfate and lithium nitrate.
Pb(SO₄)₂ : Li₂SO₄
1 : 2
2.25 : 2/1×2.25 = 4.5 mol
LiNO₃ : Li₂SO₄
4 : 2
9.62 : 2/4×9.62 = 4.81 mol
Pb(SO₄)₂ produces less number of moles of Li₂SO₄ thus it will act as limiting reactant and limit the yield of Li₂SO₄.
