When a substance is oxidized, its oxidation number increases. The reduction in oxidation number is due to lose of electron(s) to another substance in the reactant side. Substance which gets oxidize must reduce others. Thus it is a reducing agent.

Automobile catalytic Converters use a platinum callus to reduce air pollution by changing emissions such as carbon monoxide CO2
natka813 [3]

Answer:

14 mol O₂

Explanation:

The reaction between CO and O₂ is the following:

CO + O₂ → CO₂

We balance the equation with a coefficient 2 in CO and CO₂ to obtain the same number of O atoms:

2CO + O₂ → 2CO₂

As we can see from the balanced equation, 1 mol of O₂ is required to react with 2 moles of CO. Thus, the conversion factor is 1 mol of O₂/2 mol CO. We multiply the moles of CO by the conversion factor to calculate the moles of O₂ that are required:

28 mol CO x 1 mol of O₂/2 mol CO = 14 mol O₂

Why is water almost always a solvent with dissolved solutes in it?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Water is a good solvent for ionic compounds as the amount of energy released by forming ion-dipole interactions between water molecules and charged ions is sufficient to compensate for the amount of energy required to break ionic bonds (aka lattice energy) between charged ions in the ionic compound and hydrogen bonds between water molecules.

Water however, is not a good solvent for organic compounds and metals...
