2O2 IS THE OXIDIZING AGENT BECAUSE IT GIVES ALL OTHER ELEMENT OXYGEN
WARRIOR [948]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Oxygen gas (O₂)

Explanation:

Oxidizing agent is one which its self gets reduced and oxidizes the other.

Oxidation is the process where the oxidation number of substance increases while in reduction the oxidation number decreases.

The oxidation number of hydrogen in both methane and water is "+1"

Oxidation number of carbon in methane is "-4"

While its oxidation number in carbondioxide is "+4"

Thus carbon is undergoing oxidation.

While the change in oxidation number of oxygen from O₂ to CO₂ is "0" to -2

Hence it is undergoing reduction and oxidizing carbon.

What are the indicators for determining acids?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Acid-base indicators are chemicals used to determine whether an aqueous solution is acidic, neutral, or alkaline. Because acidity and alkalinity relate to pH, they may also be known as pH indicators. Examples of acid-base indicators include litmus paper, phenolphthalein, and red cabbage juice.

A mixture with medium sized particles that do not settle out is called
Alexandra [31]

Answer: colloid

Explanation:

Colloids are solutions in which small sized particles are suspended throughout the solution as they do not settle own their own. Colloids are defined as the mixtures where the size of the particle is within the range of 2nm to 1000 nm. In these mixtures, physical boundary is seen between the dispersed phase and dispersed medium.

Colloids are solutions with particle size intermediate between true solutions and suspensions. Suspensions have large sized particles which settle when left undisturbed for sometime and thus can be filtered off easily. The particle size in colloids is less and hence they do not settle under the effect of gravity.
