Answer:

If iron, Fe, and oxygen, O2, are in contact at high enough temperatures (and with plenty of oxygen around), the grey or reddish compound that forms is called iron(III) oxide with the formula Fe2O3

Explanation:

Iron rusts. We all know that. But the chemical reactions behind rust are surprisingly complicated! We will return to them at the end of the course when we discuss corrosion (see section 11.6 in the text). Here, we focus simply on the main compounds formed between iron and oxygen. That there is more than one may surprise you. That there are not an infinite number of them (and in fact, there almost is, as well shall see!) is an example of the law of definite proportion, an idea so central to chemistry it is almost taken for granted today.

In the reaction CuO(s) + CO2(g) → CuCO3(s), a. CO2 is the Lewis acid and CuCO3 is its conjugate base. b. O2– acts as a Lewis bas

adoni [48]

Answer: The correct answer is Option d.

Explanation:

According to Lewis acid-base concept:

The substance which is donating electron pair is considered as Lewis base and the substance which is accepting electron pair is considered as Lewis acid.

For the given chemical reaction:

$CuO(s)+CO_2(g)\rightarrow CuCO_3(s)$

$CO_2$ is accepting electron pair and is getting converted to $CO_3^{2-}$ . Thus, it is considered as Lewis acid.

$O^{2-}$ present in CuO is a Lewis base because it is donating electron pair.

Thus, the correct answer is Option d.

A filament at which temperature would have the most light absorbed by a piece of yellow glass?

stepladder [879]

Soft light (answer) is the filament between (2700k-3000k).
The higher the kelvin number the whiter the light.

3500k-4100k is bright white/cool white

5000k-6500k is daylight

\and those are the three primary colors of color temperature
