posledela3 years ago
6 0
Option (a) is correct.

A reducing agent is the one which loses electrons to other substance.

Here, Zn has oxidation number 0 in the L.H.S of the equation, but on R.H.S its oxidation number is +2 i.e. it Zn has donated two of its electrons to Fe^{2+}.

Hence, Zn is the reducing agent here.

What attractive forces must be overcome when CsI is dissolvedin<br> liquid HF?
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The attractive forces must be overcome are :

  • Ion- ion interaction
  • Dipole - Dipole  
  • Hydrogen Bonding  

Explanation:

For the compound to dissolve the attractive forces existing between atoms of the compound must be reduced

<u>CsI is ionic compound </u><em>and its molecules are held together by ionic(electrostatic) force . These force must be weakened for its dissolution</em>

Forces in HF <em>:</em>

<em>1 .Hydrogen Bonding :  In HF strong intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding exist between the electronegative F and Hydrogen</em>

2. Dipole - dipole : <em>HF is polar . So it is a permanent dipole and has dipole diople interaction</em>

I am one of the elements. I am a soft representative metal, and you can cut me with a knife, but watch out because I am highly r
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Potassium

Explanation:

From the given riddle. Potassium is the right answer. This because on the periodic table, potassium has the smallest atomic number of any element in its period with the electronic configuration 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1, it has the largest atomic radius within its group because the radius has no d-electron shell filled. Potassium is a soft metal but contains high reactivity.
