If the oxidation number of an atom decreases, the atom has undergone oxidation.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bumek [7]3 years ago
8 0

Oxidation is a process when an atom, a group of atoms, or an ion loses electrons.

For example,

Cu⁰ -------> Cu⁺² + 2e⁻. This is an oxidation process.

As we can see an oxidation number was 0, and it became +2. The oxidation number is increased. Oxidation number of the atom, when an atom has undergone oxidation, increases.

So, answer is b.False.

How do the properties of elements in the same column of the periodic table compare
Alik [6]
The columns of the periodic table, also referred to as "groups" contain elements with similar reactive properties, due to these elements having a similar configuration of electrons in their outer shell.

The molar mass of H2O is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of O2is 32.00 g/mol. What mass of H2O,in grams, must react to produce 50.00
N76 [4]
Answer is: mass of water is 56.28 grams.
Chemical reaction: 2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂.
m(O₂) = 50.00 g.
n(O₂) = m(O₂) ÷ M(O₂).
n(O₂) = 50 g ÷ 32 g/mol.
n(O₂) = 1.5625 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(O₂) : n(H₂O) = 1 : 2.
n(H₂O) = 2 · 1.5625 mol.
n(H₂O) = 3.125 mol.
m(H₂O) = n(H₂O) · M(H₂O).
m(H₂O) = 3.125 mol · 18.01 g/mol.
m(H₂O) = 56.28 g.

How much time would it take for 5.2 x 10^5 atoms of fermium-253 (half-life 3 days) to decay to 6.5 x 104 atoms?
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

9 days, or 3 half-lives

Explanation:

5.2x10^5=520000

6.5x10^4=65000

65000/520000=1/8, or 3 half-lives

3x3=9 days

I'm not the greatest at Chem but this seems more like math than Chem :)

Whats a type of researcher that uses computer to make sense of complex digital data
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Data Scientist

Explanation:

Data Scientist (different from a statistician) is a type of researcher that uses computer softwares to analyse and make sense of raw digital data.

Data Scientists usually combine knowledge of computer science, statistics and mathematics while using various softwares to extract information and meaningful, key insights (whether structured or unstructured) from data.

There are two popular types of data scientists: Operational Data Scientists (experts in software implementations and day to day running of the data science wing of a firm) and Exploratory Data Scientists (The real digital data miners, the researchers).

With the way the world is set up now that data is everything, data scientists are a must for every firm as the raw data every firm collects is processed by data scientists.
