Answer:- C. H
Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.
As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.
The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.
In
, the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in
is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in
is zero and in
the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in
is 0.
From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.
Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.
Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.
So, the right choice is C.H
Energy can be conserved by efficient energy use.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
Energy can be transferred from one form to another, but it cannot be destroyed or created. So it can be conserved if efficiently used. Thus efficient usage of energy lead to conservation of energy. Due to conservation of energy, the forces can be renewable and non-renewable.
So, we should know how the input energy can be completely converted to another form of energy leading to efficient usage of energy without any loss. As if there is no loss, input energy will be equal to output energy leading to 100% efficiency.
Answer:
combustion is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.
A.) The reaction is Exothermic
