Reduction <span>always results in a lowering of the oxidation number. The reaction of the system above is written as:
</span><span>Cu2+(aq) + Fe(s) --> Cu(s) + Fe2+(aq)
</span>
From the reaction, we see that copper goes from the +2 to a neutral charge. Lowering of the oxidation number happens so this is the element that is being reduced.
The answer
<span>the molar ratio for the following equation
____C3H8 + ____O2 Imported Asset ____CO2 + ____ H2O
</span>after it has been properly balanced:
__1_C3H8 + ____5O2 Imported Asset ____3CO2 + ____ 4H2O
proof:
number of C =3 (C3H8; 3CO2)
number of H =8 (C3H8 ; 4H2O)
number of O = 10(5x2) or (2x3+4) (5O2;4H2O)
the answer is
<span>Reactants: C3H8 = 1, O2 = 8; Products: CO2 = 3 and H2O = 4</span>
Answer:
Nitrogen (ii) oxide
Explanation:
To know the IUPAC name for NO, we shall determine the oxidation number of N in NO.
NOTE: The oxidation number of oxygen (O) is always – 2.
Thus the oxidation number of N in NO can be obtained as follow:
N + O = 0 (ground state)
N + (– 2) = 0
N – 2 = 0
Collect like terms
N = 0 + 2
N = +2
Thus, the oxidation number of Nitrogen (N) in NO is +2.
Therefore, the IUPAC name for NO is Nitrogen (ii) oxide
Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
Ionization energy refers to the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. Metals have lower ionization energy than non metals since ionization energy increases across a period.
One thing that we must have in mind is that it takes much more energy to remove an electron from an inner filled shell than it takes to remove an electron from an outermost incompletely filled shell.
Now let us consider the case of magnesium which has two outermost electrons. Between IE2 and IE3 we have now moved to an inner filled shell(IE3 refers to removal of electrons from the inner second shell) and a lot of energy is required to remove an electron from this inner filled shell, hence the jump.
For aluminium having three outermost electrons, there is a jump between IE3 and IE4 because IE4 deals with electron removal from a second inner filled shell and a lot of energy is involved in the process hence the jump.
Hence a jump occurs each time electrons are removed from an inner filled shell.
Answer:
aphelion
Explanation:
A planet moves with constantly changing speed as it moves about its orbit. The fastest a planet moves is at perihelion (closest) and the slowest is at aphelion (farthest).
