Here are the resonance contributors I found.
Answer:
B) is reduced.
Explanation:
Oxidation:
Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.
Reduction:
Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.
Consider the following reactions.
4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl
the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced and it is oxidizing agent.
CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂
the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized and it is reducing gent.
Oxidizing agents:
Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.
Reducing agents:
Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.
There are 4 things that are evidence of a chemical change.
1)Change in color
2)Change in shape (gas being let out)
3)Change in temperature
4)Change in smell
Burning wood is a chemical change because it has a change in color, and shape.
Answer:
2.04 x 10²⁴ molecules
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of Be(OH)₂ = 145.5g
To calculate the number of molecules in this mass of Be(OH)₂ we follow the following steps:
>> Calculate the number of moles first using the formula below:
Number of moles = mass/molarmass
Since we have been given the mass, let us derive the molar mass of Be(OH)₂
Atomic mass of Be = 9g
O = 16g
H = 1g
Molar Mass = 9 + 2(16 + 1)
= 9 + 34
= 43g/mol
Number of moles = 145.5/43 = 3.38mol
>>> We know that a mole is the amount of substance that contains Avogadro’s number of particles. The particles can be atoms, molecules, particles etc. Therefore we use the expression below to determine the number of molecules in 3.38mol of Be(OH)₂:
Number of
molecules= number of moles x 6.02 x 10²³
Number of molecules= 3.38 x 6.02 x 10²³
= 20.37 x 10²³ molecules
= 2.04 x 10²⁴ molecules
C. The thermometer reads 100
