Which subatomic particles would be found orbiting around the nucleus?

1 answer:

5 0

An atom consists of three subatomic particles.

In the middle of atom it consists of nucleus which have two subatomic particles. They are protons and neutrons.

And there is a subatomic particle that is found orbiting around the nucleus in an atom, name of that subatomic particle is electron.

Hope this helps!

What would happen if our intestines were not coiled (twisted) inside our body?

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

If there is a change in the natural shape of the intestines, this can be known as a twisted bowel. A twist in the small intestine is referred to as a volvulus. Twists in the large intestine are known as a colonic volvulus. These abnormal twists or loops can cause an obstruction or other medical conditions which could be fatal. If signs of twisting bowel present, it is important to seek medical attention as quickly as possible.

Consider these generic half-reactions. Half-reaction E° (V) X+(aq)+e−⟶X(s) 1.52 Y2+(aq)+2e−⟶Y(s) −1.17 Z3+(aq)+3e−⟶Z(s) 0.84 Ide

Answer:

strongest oxidizing agent: $X^{+}$

weakest oxidizing agent: $Y^{2+}$

strongest reducing agent: Y

weakest reducing agent: X

$X^{+}$ will oxidize Z

Explanation:

The higher the reduction potential of a species, higher will be the tendency to consume electrons from another species. Hence higher will be the oxidizing power of it's oxidized form and lower will be the reducing power of it's reduced form.

Alternatively, higher reduction potential value suggests that the oxidized form of the species acts as a stronger oxidizing agent and the reduced form of the species acts as a weaker reducing agent.

Order of reduction potential:

$E_{X^{+}\mid X}^{0}(1.52V)> E_{Z^{3+}\mid Z}^{0}(0.84V)> E_{Y^{2+}\mid Y}^{0}(-1.17V)$

So, strongest oxidizing agent: $X^{+}$

weakest oxidizing agent: $Y^{2+}$

strongest reducing agent: Y

weakest reducing agent: X

As reduction potential of the half cell $X^{+}\mid X$ is higher than the reduction potential of the half cell $Z^{3+}\mid Z$ therefore $X^{+}$ will oxidize Z into $Z^{3+}$ and itself gets converted into X.
