Why does cold air sink

Chemistry

The opposite is true for cold air<span>. It is more dense because the molecules are closer together and they are closer together because the bonds are absorbing less energy and therefore do not move as much.</span>

The absorted energy makes molecules in air move and expand therefore decreasing the airs density..

The reactant atoms are copper, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Which reactant atom was oxidized in the reaction?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

C. copper.

Explanation:

  • The atom which loses electrons (its oxidation sate be more positive) is the atom that is oxidized.
  • While, the atom which gains electrons (its oxidation sate be more negative) is the atom that is reduced.

  • Nitrogen:

It is oxidation sate is changed from (+5) in the reactants (NO₃⁻) to (+4) in the products (NO₂). N gains 1 electron

So, it is reduced.

  • Oxygen:

It is oxidation sate is the same (-2) in the reactants (NO₃⁻) and (-2) in the products (NO₂).

<em>So, it is neither be oxidized nor reduced.</em>

<em></em>

  • Copper:

It is oxidation sate is changed (0) in the reactants (Cu) to (+2) in the products (Cu²⁺). Cu loses 2 electrons.

<em>So, it is oxidized.</em>

<em></em>

  • Hydrogen:

It is oxidation sate is the same (+1) in the reactants (H⁺) and (+1) in the products (H₂O).

<em>So, it is neither be oxidized nor reduced.</em>

Explain why it is not possible to determine the type of Atom by simplifying knowing how many neutrons it has.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

It is not possible to accurately identify an element given only the number of neutrons. All atoms are made of three particles: electrons, protons and neutrons. The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons if the atom is uncharged.

A student performed a chemical reaction in which 35 grams of hydrogen and 65 grams of oxygen reacted to form water. What is the
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The mass of the product is 73,06 g

Explanation:

The reaction to form water is:

2H2 + O2 ---> 2H2O

35 g     65 g

Molar mass H2 = 2g/m ---> I have 17,5 moles (35g / 2 g/m)

Molar mass O2 = 32g/m ---> I have 2,03 moles (65g / 32g/m)

2 moles of H2 __reacts with __ 1 mol O2

17,5 moles of H2 __ reacts with ___ (17,5 m . 1 m) / 2 m = 8,75 m

I have just 2,03 m of O2 and I need 8,75 m so O2 is my limiting reagent

1 mol of O2 ___ reacts with 2 moles H2

2,03 moles of O2 __ reacts with  (2,03 m . 2 m) / 1 m = 4,06 m

I have 17,5 moles of H2 and I need 4,06 m. H2 is my excess reagent

<u><em>"All operations are done with the limiting reagent"</em></u>

1 mol O2 are required____ to form 2 H2O

2,03 mol O2 are required __ to form (2,03m . 2m) / 1m = 4,06 m

Molar mass of water: 18 g/m

Mass of water ----> Molar mass . Moles water = 18 g/m . 4,06 m = 73,08g

What is the speed of an electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength of 8.6 x 10-5 m?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The speed of the given electromagnetic wave is  3 x 10⁸ m/s.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is a type of energy that is commonly known as light energy. The speed of light in air is about 3 x 10⁸ meters per second (m/s).

<u>All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed</u> which is equal to speed of light, approximately  3 x 10⁸ meters per second (m/s) through a vacuum or air.

Therefore, the speed of the given electromagnetic wave is  3 x 10⁸ m/s.
