Answer:
The three types of nuclear radiation in increasing order of penetrating power are ____.
alpha, beta, gamma
Explanation:
Alpha Ray: This has the least penetrating power because the particles produced during decay are large in quantity but they have a very low energy which dosent alow them to move far through space because the are ususally blocked.
Beta ray : they have more penetrating power than alpha rays because they a bit higher in energy and quantity {size}
Gamma Ray; this has the most penetrating power. they are highly powerful waves but do little at ionization of other atoms or molecules. it penetrates through molecules very easily due to its size and energy.
Answer:
(i) Oxidizing Agent: NO2 / Reducing Agent NH3-
(ii) Oxidizing Agent AgNO3 / Reducing Agent Zn
Explanation:
(i) 8NH3( g) + 6NO2( g) => 7N2( g) + 12H2O( l)
In this reaction, both two reactants contain nitrogen with a different oxidation number and produce only one product which contains nitrogen with a unique oxidation state. So, nitrogen is oxidized and reduced in the same reaction.
Nitrogen Undergoes a change in oxidation state from 4+ in NO2 to 0 in N2. It is reduced because it gains electrons (decrease its oxidation state). NO2 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor).
Nitrogen Changes from an oxidation state of 3- in NH3 to 0 in N2. It is oxidized because it loses electrons (increase its oxidation state). NH3 is the reducing agent (electron donor)
(ii) Zn(s) +AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)
Ag changes oxidation state from 1+ to 0 in Ag(s).
Ag is reduced because it gains electrons and for this reason and AgNO3 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor)
Zn Changes from an oxidation state of 0 in Zn(s) to 2+ in Zn(NO3)2. It is oxidized and for this reason Zn is the reducing agent (electron donor).
Balanced equation:
Zn(s) +2AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + 2Ag(s)
Answer:
3 is the answer.
Explanation:
Nitrogen atoms will form three covalent bonds (also called triple covalent) between two atoms of nitrogen because each nitrogen atom needs three electrons to fill its outermost shell.
