Metalloid

Explanation:

If an element is lustrous, brittle and a semi-conductor, it is best classified as a metalloid.

Metalloids shares attributes of metals and non-metals.

  • They are often described as semi-metals as they do not share the full properties that makes a metal a metal.
  • Metalloids are lustrous but not malleable like metals.
  • They do not conduct electricity but they do so on certain conditions.
  • Examples are silicon, germanium, boron, arsenic e.t.c
  • They are usually found in the middle of the periodic table.
  • They are not readily alloyed with metals.

Question 10 OT 20
Airida [17]

Answer:

B) is reduced.

Explanation:

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced and it is oxidizing agent.

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 and it is reducing gent.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.
