Answer:

Three of the five oxides are expected to form acidic solutions in water

Explanation:

We have different types of oxides : Acidic oxides, Basic oxides, Amphoteric oxides, Peroxides and Higher oxides.

Only acidic oxides will dissolve in water to give an acidic solution.

Considering the given oxides carefully,

  • SO2 will dissolve in water to produce H2SO3 which is acidic.

  • Y2O3 will dissolve in water to produce Yttrium(III) hydroxide which is basic.

  • MgO will dissolve in water only to produce Mg(OH)2 which is also basic.

  • Cl2O dichlorine mono oxide will dissolve in water to produce HClO which is acidic.

  • N2O5 will dissolve in water to produce HNO3 which is also acidic.

The quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1⁰c is defined as
Alex
Specific heat is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. It is the amount per unit mass that is required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. Every substance has its own specific heat and each has its own distinct value. The units of specific heat are joules per gram-degree Celsius (J/f C) and sometimes J/Kg K may also be used.

Which of the following factors could you change in a system and not change its induced EMF?
krok68 [10]
The options attached to the question above are listed below:
A. Magnetic field.
B. Type of wire.
C. Velocity of the wire.
D. Length of the wire in the field.

ANSWER
The correct option is B.
The factors that determine the induced current in a system are: the number of wires in the coil, the strength of the magnetic field and speed of armature rotation [speed of cutting]. Generally, the induced electromotive force across a conductor is equal to the rate at which magnetic flux is cut by the conductor. The type of wire used does not affect the induced EMF.

Explain the electrolysis of acidified water​
Andrew [12]

Answer:

yqaeh

Explanation:

Electrolysis of acidified water

Water is a poor conductor of electricity, but it does contain some hydrogen ions , H +, and hydroxide ions, OH -. These ions are formed when a small proportion of water molecules naturally dissociate . ... H + ions are attracted to the cathode , gain electrons and form hydrogen gas.
