Answer : The correct option is, (B) occur when oxygen is gained or electrons are lost.

Explanation :

Redox reaction is a type of reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons or we can say that the oxidation reaction occurs when the oxygen is gained. In this, the oxidation state increases.

Reduction reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance gains electrons or we can say that the reduction reaction occurs when the oxygen is lost. In this, the oxidation state decreases.

Hence, the correct option is, (B) occur when oxygen is gained or electrons are lost.

Represent the formation of cations for the following metal atoms using electron dot structures. (a) Al (b) Sr (c) Ba

vagabundo [1.1K]

the formation of cations by using electron dot structures are :

a) Al

Al . losing the three valence electrons makes the Al³⁺

b) Sr :

Sr : losing the two valence electrons makes Sr²⁺

c) Ba

: Ba , losing the two valence electrons makes it Ba²⁺

A Lewis electron dot diagram is a representation of the valence electrons of an atom that employments specks around the image of the element. The number of dots equals the number of valence electrons within the molecule. These dots are arranged to the right and left and over and underneath the symbol, with no more than two dots on a side. Cations are the positive ions shaped by the loss of one or more electrons. The foremost commonly shaped cations of the representative elements are those that include the loss of all of the valence electrons.

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

A. 2C12H26(l) + 37O2(g) —> 24CO2(g) + 26H2O(g)

B. 761.42 L

Explanation:

A. Step 1:

The equation for the reaction.

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> CO2(g) + H2O(g)

A. Step 2:

Balancing the equation.

The equation can be balance as follow:

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> CO2(g) + H2O(g)

There are 12 atoms of C on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 12 in front of CO2 as illustrated below:

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> 12CO2(g) + H2O(g)

There are 26 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 13 in front of H2O as illustrated below:

C12H26(l) + O2(g) —> 12CO2(g) + 13H2O(g)

Now, there are a total of 37 atoms of O2 on the right side and 2 atoms on the left. It can be balance by putting 37/2 in front of O2 as illustrated below:

C12H26(l) + 37/2O2(g) —> 12CO2(g) + 13H2O(g)

Multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction from the equation.

2C12H26(l) + 37O2(g) —> 24CO2(g) + 26H2O(g)

Now the equation is balanced

B. Step 1:

We'll by obtaining the number of mole of C12H26 in 0.450 kg of C12H26. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of C12H26 = (12x12) + (26x1) = 144 + 26 = 170g/mol

Mass of C12H26 = 0.450 kg = 0.450x1000 = 450g

Number of mole of C12H26 =?

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of C12H26 = 450/170

Number of mole of C12H26 = 2.65 moles

B. Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole of CO2 produced by the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2C12H26(l) + 37O2(g) —> 24CO2(g) + 26H2O(g)

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of C12H26 produced 24 moles of CO2.

Therefore, 2.65 moles of C12H26 will produce = (2.65x24)/2 = 31.8 moles of CO2.

B. Step 3:

Determination of the volume of CO2 produced by the reaction.

Pressure (P) = 1 atm

Temperature (T) = 19°C = 19°C + 273 = 292K

Gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

Number of mole (n) = 31.8 moles

Volume (V) =?

The volume of CO2 produced by the reaction can b obtained by applying the ideal gas equation as follow:

PV = nRT

1 x V = 31.8 x 0.082 x 292

V = 761.42 L

Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced is 761.42 L

A good reason for a desert fox to show this pattern of behavior because hunting at night allows the fox to use its night vision.

<h3>What is Hunting?</h3>

Thi9s is commonly practised by predators such as fox in which they capture and kill other animals for food.

The fox has a good night vision which makes it able to hunt for animals during the night also. This is why option C is chosen as the most appropriate choice.
