Answer: option D - The total number of nucleons changes.
Explanation:
Nuclear Reaction is best described as a process such as the fission of an atomic nucleus, or the fusion of one or more atomic nuclei and / or subatomic particles in which the NUMBER of PROTONS and / or NEUTRONS in a nucleus CHANGES; the reaction products may contain a different element or a different isotope of the same element.
Note that the NUCLEONS refers to ONE of the subatomic particles of the atomic nucleus, i.e. a PROTON or a NEUTRON.
So, in a Nuclear reaction, the total number of nucleons changes.
<span>For this reaction, oxidation number of Carbon in
CO would be +2 while oxidation number of carbon in CO2 would be +4 and so this
means that carbon has oxidized. Oxidation number of nitrogen in NO is +2. While
oxidation number of nitrogen in N2 is 0 so this means that nitrogen had reduced.
The reducing agent is the one which provides electrons by oxidizing itself so
in this case; CO is the reducing agent while the C in CO oxidized to produce
electrons. </span><span>I

Answer:
1.23 M
Explanation:
Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .
M = n / V
M = molarity
V = volume of solution in liter ,
n = moles of solute ,
Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,
Hence ,
n = w / m
n = moles ,
w = given mass ,
m = molecular mass .
From the question ,
w = given mass of NaCl = 7.2 g
As we know , the molecular mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol
Moles is calculated as -
n = w / m = 7.2 g / 58.5 g/mol = 0.123 mol
Molarity is calculated as -
V = 100ml = 0.1 L (since , 1 ml = 1/1000L )
M = n / V = 0.123 mol / 0.1 L = 1.23 M
