Answer:
Iron (Fe)
Explanation:
The number of electrons (-) is usually the same as the number of protons (+) in the atom of the element (unless it is an ion).
The element described has 26 electrons, so we can assume that it has 26 protons as well. The number of protons in an atom is the atomic number of element that the atom is.
Element 26 on the PTE is Iron (Fe), which does rust (oxidation) in air and water.
They have different amounts of neutrons.
Do u know why? Ok, because they are both cacbon, so they have the same amounts of protons : 6.

Answer:
A. is alloyed with carbon and chromium to make stainless steel.
Explanation:
Steel is an alloy formed mainly of iron and carbon but some other metals like chromium are also added in little amounts.
Is steel, the percentage of iron and carbon together is about 90% and the rest metals fall in the 10% part.
Although the cost of steel is low, it has a very high tensile strength and that's why it is used in tools, ships, buildings, trains and in various types of infrastructures.
Answer:
e) The activation energy of the reverse reaction is greater than that of the forward reaction.
Explanation:
- Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that is required by the reactants to start a reaction.
- An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases heat energy to the surrounding while an endothermic reactions is a reaction that absorbs heat from the surrounding.
- <em><u>In reversible reactions, when the forward reaction is exothermic it means the reverse reaction will be endothermic, therefore the reverse reaction will have a higher activation energy than the forward reaction.</u></em> The activation energy of the reverse reaction will be the sum of the enthalpy and the activation energy of the forward reaction.
