Oxidation-reduction reactions (often called "redox" for short) are reactions that involve the transfer of electrons from one spe

cies to another. Oxidation states, or oxidation numbers, allow chemists to keep track of these electron transfers. In general, one element will lose electrons (oxidation), with the result that it will increase in oxidation number, and another element will gain electrons (reduction), thereby decreasing in oxidation number. The species that is oxidized is called the reducing agent or reductant. The species that is reduced is called the oxidizing agent or oxidant. To sum up: Oxidation = increase in oxidation state = loss of electrons = reducing agent Reduction = decrease in oxidation state = gain of electrons = oxidizing agent Part A Which element is oxidized in this reaction? Fe2O3+3CO→2Fe+3CO2 Enter the elemental symbol. View Available Hint(s) is oxidized Part B Which element is reduced in this reaction? 2HCl+2KMnO4+3H2C2O4→6CO2+2MnO2+2KCl+4H2O Enter the elemental symbol. View Available Hint(s) is reduced

A. Fe2O3 + 3CO= 2Fe+3CO2
Here element oxidised is CO or Carbon Monoxide, since oxygen is added.

B. 2HCl+2KMnO4+3H2C2O4=6CO2+2MnO2+2KCl+4H2O
Here Element reduced is 3H2C2O4, since Hydrogen is being added. Also KMnO4 is reduced, since Oxygen is removed.

The ph of a fruit juice is 3.43.4. find the hydronium ion​ concentration, left bracket upper h 3 upper o superscript plus right
DENIUS [597]
PH is simply a convenient way to denote hydronium ion concentration (usually in moles per liter or molarity). pH is calculated from the given concentration using the equation:   pH  =  -log [H3O⁺]

To find [H3O+] from the given equation, we apply the antilog. 
 [H3O⁺]  =  10⁻⁽pH⁾ or ten raised to the negative value of pH
A solution with a pH of 3.43 has a hydrogen ion concentration of 3.7154x10^-4 moles per liter.

Which of these statements describes a physical property of hydrogen? Group of answer choices it is found in acids. it is less de
pochemuha

Answer:

it is less dense than oxygen gas.

Explanation:

Hydrogen is the simplest chemical element that exists. The symbol for the chemical element Hydrogen is "H" and it is a colourless, tasteless, odorless, and highly flammable gas.

Hydrogen is a chemical element found in group (1) of the periodic table and as such it has one (1) electrons in its outermost shell. Therefore, Hydrogen has an atomic number of one (1) and a single valence electrons because it has only one proton and one electron in its nucleus.

In Chemistry, the properties of a chemical element that can be observed and measured without changing its chemical nature is known as a physical property. It includes density, color, freezing point, opacity, smell, melting point, viscosity, etc.

Hence, the statement which describes a physical property of hydrogen is that it is less dense (density) than oxygen gas.
