The process that took place is called oxidation or burning where wood was burnt into ashes.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Wood is an organic compound formed of different types of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. These components do have carbon oxygen hydrogen as most abundant atoms and also has some amount of nitrogen, phosphorous, and other metal ions like magnesium, calcium etc.

When the logs were burnt, the chemical reaction took place between the atmospheric oxygen and the atoms present in the wood, forming different oxides. As carbon was the most abundant atom present, a huge smoke containing carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide evolved. The hydrogen became the water vapour, and other gases were also formed like nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide etc. These gases went off into atmosphere. The rest that were left behind were mixture of unburnt part of wood as well as the solid metal oxides. There were unburnt particles of carbon mixed with them too.

3 moles of anything is how many particles?
Natali [406]

Answer:

<h2>1.806 × 10²⁴ particles</h2>

Explanation:

The number of particles in a substance can be found by using the formula

<h3>N = n × L</h3>

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

N = 3 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.806 × 10²⁴ particles</h3>

Hope this helps you

Select the statement(s) that describe the characteristics of transition metals. a. Transition metals have partially filled d sub
yan [13]

Answer: The correct option is A,

--> a.) Transition metals have partially filled d subshells.

Explanation:

Transition elements are all metals of economic importance. They are found in the d- lock of the periodic table between group 2 and 3. They occupy three rows, with ten elements in each row. The term 'transition metals' refers only to an element which has PARTIALLY filled d orbitals. Typical example of transition metals include iron (Fe).

They have partially filled 3d orbitals which are responsible for the special properties of the metals. These include:

--> Physical properties: the transition metals have high boiling and melting points. They are hard, dense and lustrous. They are also good conductors of heat and electricity.

--> Chemical reactivity: In the s- block and p-block, the chemical properties of the elements in the same period vary, often quite markedly, from left to right. This does not happen with the transition metals because electrons are added progressively to the inner d-orbitals.

--> Variable oxidation states: they have variable oxidation states because 3d electrons are available for bond formation.
