Answer:
C. Its oxidation number increases.
Explanation:
- <em><u>Oxidation is defined as the loss of electrons by an atom while reduction is the gain of electrons by an atom</u></em>.
- Atoms of elements have an oxidation number of Zero in their elemental state.
- When an atom looses electrons it undergoes oxidation and its oxidation number increases.
- For example, <em><u>an atom of sodium (Na) at its elemental state has an oxidation number of 0. When the sodium atom looses an electrons it becomes a cation, Na+, with an oxidation number of +1 , the loss of electron shows an increase in oxidation number from 0 to +1.</u></em>
Answer:
its ability to lose electron
0.250 mol/L
<em>Step 1</em>. Write the chemical equation
H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the moles of H2SO4
Moles of H2SO4 = 12.5 mL H2SO4 × (0.500 mmol H2SO4/1 mL H2SO4)
= 6.25 mmol H2SO4
<em>Step 3</em>. Calculate the moles of NaOH
Moles of NaOH = 6.25 mmol H2SO4 × (2 mmol NaOH/(1 mmol H2SO4)
= 12.5 mmol NaOH
<em>Step 4</em>. Calculate the concentration of the NaOH
[NaOH] = moles/litres = 12.5 mmol/50.0 mL = 0.250 mol/L
The major reaction would be addition
The 2.5 x 10²¹ molecules of CH₃OH have 0.00415 moles.
<h3>What is the mole concept?</h3>
- The Mole concept is used to express the amount of substance conveniently.
- A mole is defined as the amount of substance that contains exactly 6.022 x 10²³ elementary particles of the given substance. Here, elementary particles refer to atoms, molecules, or ions.
- This fixed number 6.022 x 10²³ is known as Avogadro Number and is denoted by

<h3>How to calculate the number of moles?</h3>
The number of moles is given by

When given mass = molar mass of a substance, then no of moles is equal to 1 which is equivalent to 6.022 x 10²³.
We also know,
1 mole has 6.022 x 10²³ molecules of CH₃OH
According to the mole concept,
6.022 x 10²³ molecules of CH₃OH is equal to 1 mole
2.5 x 10²¹molecules of CH₃OH is equal to
moles
Thus, 2.5 x 10²¹molecules of CH₃OH are equal to 4.15 x 10⁻³ moles or 0.00415 moles
