Answer:

Iron is oxidized to form rust.

Explanation:

Consider the reaction; 4Fe + 302------>2Fe2O3, we can see that iron is being oxidized to iron III oxide. Rust is the common name of iron III oxide.

Rusting is an electrochemical process, iron rusts when it comes into contact with air and water because electrochemical cells are set up at the surface of contact.

Iron usually functions as the anode in the electrochemical process. This process leads to the formation of iron III oxide. Rust is soft and breaks off easily thereby exposing the metal below the surface to further rusting.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Electrolyte

Explanation:

A compound that conducts electricity when dissolved in water would most likely be classified as electrolyte.

The ionic compound in solid form do not conduct the electricity but when dissolve in water they separated into ions and have ability to conduct the electricity because of mobile ions that move freely and allow the charge to flow.

The ionic compounds are called electrolyte and electrolyte solution is formed when they dissolve in water.

For example when sodium chloride is placed into water it split into ions and conduct electricity because of mobile ions.

How many liters of water vapor can be produced if 8.9 liters of methane gas (CH4) are combusted, if all measurements are taken a
Burka [1]
From the chemical equation given, one mole of CH4 yields two moles of water (H2O). If all the methane gas that is 8.9 L is combusted then the volume of water produced is the number of moles H2O times the volume of the methane gas used up, that is 8.9 L × 2 = 17.8 L of water produced.
