Answer:

The incorrect statement is: SO₂ gains electrons                      

Explanation:

A chemical reaction that involves the simultaneous transfer of electrons between two chemical species, is known as the redox reaction.

Given chemical reaction: 2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2SO₃(g)

In this redox reaction, S is present in +4 oxidation state in SO₂ and +6 oxidation state SO₃. Whereas, O is present in 0 oxidation state in O₂ and -2 oxidation state in SO₃.

<u>Therefore, SO₂ loses electrons and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, O₂ gains electrons and thus gets reduced. </u>

<u>In this reaction, SO₂ is the reducing agent and O₂ is the oxidizing agent.</u>

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer: C. A Chemical Change

Explanation:

A chemical change is one that occurs when new substances are produced preceding a chemical reaction ( the  mixing  or combination of one substance  with another).

From the experiment by Jasmine, since light was produced from the mixture,  energy is being released which is due to a  chemical change.

Pls i need help with this
gregori [183]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A physical change is one in which no new substance is formed. The moistening of food by saliva is purely a physical change because no new substance is formed in the process.

A chemical change leads to the formation of a new substance. The action of the enzyme converts starch into sugar which means that a new substance is formed. This is a chemical change.

How do the interactions that are broken in water when it is boiled compare with those broken when water is electrolyzed? Boiling
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Boiling water breaks intermolecular attractions and electrolysis breaks covalent bonds.

Explanation:

When water boils, hydrogen bonds are broken between adjacent water molecules. The hydrogen bond is an intermolecular bond between adjacent oxygen and hydrogen atoms of water molecules.  

During electrolysis, water dissociates in the presence of electric current. Here, ions are formed in the process. Therefore, covalent bonds are broken here.
