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.

How would you find the volume of a regular object and irregular object?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

You can find the volume of an irregular object by immersing it in water in a beaker or other container with volume markings, and by seeing how much the level goes up. Or by multiplying all the sides of the container. #markasbrainliest

What heavier element is created when hydrogen atoms fuse together in the sun’s core?
sergey [27]

Answer:

Helium is created from hydrogen in the sun's core.

Four hydrogen-1 nuclei fuse to produce

  • one helium-4 nucleus, two neutrons,
  • two positrons, and
  • two electron neutrinos.

Explanation:

Step One:

{\rm ^1_1 H + ^1_1 H\to ^2_1 H + e^{+}} + v_e.

Two hydrogen-1 nuclei fuse. One proton will convert to a neutron. The products will be

  • one hydrogen-2 nucleus,
  • one positron, and
  • one electron neutrino.

Step Two:

\rm ^1_1 H +^2_1 H \to ^3_2 He.

There are plenty of hydrogen-1 nuclei available in the core of the sun. The hydrogen-2 nucleus from step one will fuse with a hydrogen-1 nucleus. The product is

  • one helium-3 nucleus.

Step Three

\rm ^3_2 He + ^3_2 He \to ^4_2 He + ^1_1 H + ^1_1 H.

Two helium-3 nuclei from step two react with each other. The products are:

  • one helium-4 nucleus, and
  • two hydrogen-1 nuclei.

The overall reaction will be:

{\rm 6\; ^1_1 H \to ^4_2 He + 2\; ^1_1 H+2\; e^{+}}+v_\text{e}.

{\rm 4\; ^1_1 H \to ^4_2 He + 2\; e^{+}} + v_\text{e}

In other words, hydrogen nuclei in the core of the sun fuse together to form helium.

Is titanium a metal nonmetal or metalloid?
tatiyna
<span>Titanium is the first element in the fourth column of the periodic table. It is classified as a transition metal. Titanium atoms have 22 electrons and 22 protons. Titanium is fairly inactive and is very resistant to corrosion from other elements and substances like acids and oxygen. It has a relatively low electrical and thermal conductivity. Titanium is used to alloy with different metals such as iron, aluminum, and manganese where it helps to produce strong and lightweight alloys for use in spacecraft, naval ships, missiles, and as armor plating.</span>

Which of the following is a chemical change? A. a solution of salt water being diluted as water is added to it B. soil drying as
Kobotan [32]

A chemical change occurs when the identity of a substance is changed. Silver tarnishing is a chemical change because silver and sulfur react to form a new substance, silver sulfide. In the other examples, the substances have not changed their identity and only physical changes have occurred. the correct answer is D
