Answer: D
Explanation:
A reducing agent is a species that reduces other compounds, and is thereby oxidized. The whole compound becomes the reducing agent. In other words, of a compound is oxidized, then they are the reducing agent. On the other hand, if the compound is reduced, it is an ozidizing agent.
Since we have established that a reducing agent is the compound being oxidized, we know that A is not our answer. An oxidized compound is losing electrons. Choice A states exactly this.
For B, this is true as we have established this already.
C is also correct. Since a reducing agent loses electrons, it becomes more positive. This makes the oxidation number increase.
D would be our correct answer. It is actually a good oxidizing agent is a metal in a high oxidation state, such as Mn⁷⁺.
FeS is an example of an ionic compound as in the formula there is a metal of Fe iron chemically bonded to the nonmetal S sulphur. Resulting in a strong electrostatic attraction due to the transfer of valence electrons from the iron to the Sulphur.
The Kinitec Molecular Theory of Matter
Yes Kninetic energy
Answer: 69.152% → 63^Cu
30.848% → 65^Cu
Explanation:
As you know, the average atomic mass of an element is determined by taking the weighted average of the atomic masses of its naturally occurring isotopes.
Simply put, an element's naturally occurring isotopes will contribute to the average atomic mass of the element proportionally to their abundance.
