Answer : The correct option is a) Loses electrons and loses potential energy.

Explanation :

Reducing agent : In a redox reaction, it is oxidized by the loss of electrons and by the loses of potential energy. It is also called as electron donor.

Reducing agent reduces others by loss of electron and its oxidation state increases.

For example : Sodium is a reducing agent and itself oxidized as follows,

Na\rightarrow Na^++e^-

Therefore, the molecule that function as a reducing agent in a redox reaction is loses electrons and loses potential energy.

Help me please) attached the screen below. Thanks
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

1) d = 2.4 g/cm³

2) m = 25 g

3) v = 126.7 cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of material = 24 g

Volume of material = 10 cm³

Density of material = ?

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

by putting value,

d = 24 g / 10 cm³

d = 2.4 g/cm³

2) Given data:

Density of material = 5 g/cm³

Volume of material = 5 cm³

Mass of material = ?

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

5 g/cm³ = m / 5 cm³

m = 5 g/cm³×5 cm³

m = 25 g

3)Given data:

Density of material = 3 g/cm³

Mass of material = 380 g

Volume of material =  ?

Solution:

Formula:

d = m/v

3 g/cm³ = 380 g / v

v = 380 g /3 g/cm³

v = 126.7 cm³

In aqueous solution, hypobromite ion, BrO-, reacts to produce bromate ion, BrO3 -, and bromide ion, Br-, according to the follow
maw [93]

Answer:

22.73s

Explanation:

The reaction is a second order reaction, we know this by observing the unit of the slope.

rate constant = k = 0.056 M-1s-1

the initial concentration of BrO- [A]o = 0.80 M

time = ?

Final concentration [A]t= one-half of 0.80 M = 0.40M

1 / [A]t = kt + 1 / [A]o

1 / 0.40 = 0.056 * t + 1 / 0.80

t = (2.5 - 1.25) / 0.056

t = 22.73s
