Minchanka [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer is: the oxidation number of oxygen must decrease.

Oxidizing agent is element (substance) that gain electrons in chemical reaction.

For example, balanced chemical reaction: C + O₂ → CO₂.

Oxygen change oxidation number from 0 to oxidation number -2 (reduction) and carbon change from 0 to +4 (oxidation)

Estimate the molar mass of a gas that effuses at 1.80 times the effusion rate of carbon dioxide. answer in units of g/mol.
Effectus [21]
From Grahams Law the rates of effusion of two gases are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses at the same temperature and pressure.
Therefore; R1/R2 = √mm2/√mm1
The molecular mass of Carbon dioxide is 44 g
Hence;  1.8 = √(44/x
             3.24 = 44/x
                x = 44/3.24
                   = 13.58 
Therefore, the molar mass of the other gas is 13.58 g/mol

Identify the types of intermolecular forces found for each of the liquids and relate these to the shape of the drop as seen from
pav-90 [236]

Explanation:

Oil molecules are non-polar, and they can't form hydrogen bonds. Dispersion forces are present in C12H26 (oil).

H20 (water) are polar, has hydrogen bonds, it also has dipole-induced dipole and London dispersion forces.

The difference between them is that adhesion refers to the clinging of unlike molecules and cohesion refers to the clinging of like molecules.

In C12H26 (oil)  the adhesive forces are stronger than the cohesive forces as a result, oil molecules tend to stick to the walls of the container.

In  H2O (water) the cohesive forces is greater than the adhesive forces, as a result water molecules tend to stick together.
