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.

Answer:

24.47 L

Explanation:

Using the general gas law equation:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = 0.0821 Latm/molK

T = temperature (K)

According to the provided information in this question,

P = 1.0 atm

V = ?

n = 1 mol

T = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298K

Using PV = nRT

V = nRT ÷ P

V = 1 × 0.0821 × 298 ÷ 1

V = 24.465 ÷ 1

V = 24.465

V = 24.47 L

How many moles are in 8.30x10^23 molecules of H2o
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
You multiply avogadro's number to what you were given.
8.30x10^23 * 6. 0221409x10^23
=1.357*10^25

That should be the right answer but I'm not sure. It has been awhile since I have done this.

Why saturated fatty acid can’t create kink ?​
Leya [2.2K]
Saturated fatty acids exhibit a linear structure while unsaturated fatty acids bend, or kink, due to double bonds within the chemical foundation.

Which is the best reason for choosing the beaker for heating the solution? The beaker is the only container that can withstand h
lyudmila [28]

Answer: The beaker will not tip over when placed on the hot plate


Justification:


Since beakers have flat surface bottoms (usually and this is the condition to use them for this particular application) they can be placed safely on the hot plate without the risk that the they tip over.


Beakers are wide mouth cylindrical vessels used in laboratories to store, mix and heat liquids. Most are made of glass, in which case the glass is resistant to the flame and does not break when exposed to high temperatures or when is heated by direct contact on a hot plate.


So, their safe shape (flat bottom) that makes them stable, along with their ability to withstand high temperatures, make them suitable to heat solutions in laboratories.

Which transition represents a time when water molecules are moving closer together? Frost forms on a window pain. Sleet turns to
Anettt [7]
The correct answer here is C. Dew forms on the grass.

Water is a polar substance, which means it has many unique properties. One of which, is its ability to adhere and cohere to surfaces and substances. This particular question is asking about the cohesive properties of water, meaning it’s ability to stick to itself (through bonding.) The only answer choice that represents a situation where water is linking up with other molecules of water are dew drops. The water comes together using cohesion to form the drop and hen the water’s high surface tension properties meet the dew drop’s shape. The other answer choices describe alternate processes like: freezing, melting, and evaporation, respectively.

I hope this helps! :)
