Answer:

D) 0, 2+ and 4+

Explanation:

Lead storage battery consists of metallic lead and lead(IV)oxide in a bath of sulphuric acid.

The negative plate (Cathode) consists of metallic lead in the battery while the positive plate (Anode) consists of Lead(IV)Oxide (PbO2). The liquid in which these plates are suspended in is an aqueous medium of Sulphuric acid (H2SO4).

Negative plate reaction: Pb(s) + HSO4–(aq) → PbSO4(s) + H+(aq) + 2e–

Positive plate reaction: PbO2(s) + HSO4–(aq) + 3H+(aq) + 2e– → PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l)

Combining these two reactions, one can determine the overall reaction:

Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2H+(aq) + 2HSO4–(aq) → 2PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l)

Pb is in 0 valent state. PbO2 has Pb with 4+ valency. PbSO4 has Pb with 2+ valency.

What did Niels Bohr describe electrons in his atomic model
Bess [88]

Neils bohar proposed his atomic model in 1913.

He describe that's electron travel in a circular orbit surrounds the neuclus of an atom.each orbit has quantized energy and size. Energy is transmitted when an electron jumps from one to other orbit near to nucleus.and it absorb energy when it jumbs away from nucleus.he also said that these electrons are restricted to fixed orbits. In excited state of electron, they absorb or emitt photon with specific wavelength.

Warm air _____.
svp [43]

Answer:

cools as it rises, then sinks back down

Explanation:

The movement of air is a convection current. Convection currents occur when warm air rises, cools down, and sinks due to gained density, replacing the warm air closer to the ground, creating a cycle.
