Thank you for posting your question here. Below are the answers to the above questions:
1. The colored sesame seeds represent neutrons, and plain sesame seeds represent protons.
<span>2. The two poppy seeds glued to the fiberfill represent electrons. </span>
Answer:
E. Gain of electrons
Explanation:
A reduction reaction is one part of the two concurrent reactions that take place in a redox (reduction-oxidation) reaction.
During reduction, an atom gains electrons from a donor atom, and it's oxidation number becomes smaller.
Option A is wrong because reduction does not increase oxidation state nor are neutrons involved
Option B is wrong because reduction is not a nuclear reaction (does not involve the nucleons)
Option C is wrong because reduction leads to reduction in oxidation state
Option D is wrong leads to a reduction in oxidation state when electrons are gained
Option E is correct because reduction involves gain of electrons
No of moles of Carbon, C = mass/ molar mass.
Molar mass of carbon = 12.0107. We only have to calculate the no of moles
of carbon to obtain carbon's mass. .
From Sucrose chemical formula C12H22O11 we know that there are 12
carbon atoms.
So there are 1.4x10^(20) x12 = 16.8 x 10^20 carbon atoms.
We will use avogardo's number to find out the number of carbon molecules
in the compound.
From Avogadro's no. One mole of any substance equals to 6.022140857
atoms.
So X mole contains 16.8 * 10^(20) carbon atom
(16.8x10^20 carbon atoms)/6.022 x10^23 particles/mol = 0.00279 mols
The molar mass of carbon is 12.0107g/mol so we'll multiply to get the mass:
0.00279 mols x 12 = 0.03348.
<span>Well, to start with, since the atomic radius of the gas increases as it goes down the period, it causes there to be a decrease in the effect that the nucleus's positive charge has on the valence electrons ( more electrons in between, and more distance ). This causes the valence electrons to become less tightly bound to the atom, which translates to a deviation from the noble gases tendencies to remain nonreactive.</span>
