Answer:
Reduction
Explanation:
Reduction:
Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.
Mn⁺⁷ +3e⁻ → Mn⁴⁺
Mn gets three electrons , its oxidation state reduced from +7 to +4 so Mn gets reduced.
Examples:
Consider the following reactions.
4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl
the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.
CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂
the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized.
H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O
The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.
Answer:
Enantiomers/ Isomers/ Stereoisomers/ Meso compounds/ Constitutional isomers/ Diastereomers.
Explanation:
Isomers are molecules that have the same chemical formula but have different conformation, or in its connections, or the orientation in space. Isomers have different chemical and physical properties (second blank).
The isomers that only differ by the orientation of their atoms in space are called stereoisomers (third blank).
The stereoisomers that have a chiral carbon and do not mirror images of each are called enantiomers (first blank). They can deviate the polarized light.
When a compound has two or more chiral carbons but they compensate for the deviation of the light, and the compound is optically inactive, it's called a meso compound (fourth blank).
When the isomers differ in the way the atoms are connected it's called a constitutional isomer (fifth blank).
When the molecule has more than one chiral carbon, it will have pairs of enantiomers. The isomers that aren't of the same pair are nonsuperimposable mirror images of each other and are called diastereomers (last blank).
As of now, the nuclear fission is the most feasible energy source for human use. All the nuclear power plants are based on the controlled nuclear fission reaction, where the unstable nucleus is bombarded with high speed neutrons, thus, splitting the nucleus into stable ones and releasing huge amount of energy. The nuclear fusion requires very high temperature, the temperature equal's to that of the sun. Hence, it is not feasible right now. As the technology advances, we will see advancement in other form of energies.
The condensed structural formula of the product of the reaction of 2,7-dimethyl-4-octene with hydrogen and metal catalyst.
Ch3 CH(CH3) CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH(CH3) CH3
Equation is as follows
CH3 CH(CH3) CH2 C=C CH2 CH(CH3) CH3 + H2→
CH3 CH(CH3)CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH(CH3) CH3
metal catalyst example is nickel and the name of structure formed is
2,7- dimethyl octane
Answer:
Explanation:
Personal opinion/interpretation are usually firsthand explanation to a phenomenon or problem set. They are usually drawn from logical reasoning and deduction about some event. Most times, they are non-scientific in nature in that they are non-methodical and do not rely on the critical thinking precepts scientific studies are hinged on.
Verified observations are usually drawn from carefully planned experiments. From the results of the experiment, critical decisions can be made.
