The process where a substance reacts with oxygen

Chemistry
1 answer:
daser333 [38]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The process where substance react with oxygen is called combustion.

Explanation:

When substance react with oxygen combustion is occur. The substance which burned is called fuel and in this process large amount of heat is released to the surrounding. It is exothermic process.

For example:

4Li + O₂    →      2Li₂O

2Mg + O₂    →    2MgO

  S +  O₂      →      SO₂  

The product which is formed as a result of combustion reaction are called oxides.

In given examples we can see that lithium, magnesium and sulfur react with oxygen and product formed is oxides of respective elements such as lithium oxide ( Li₂O), magnesium oxide (MgO) and sulfur oxide ( SO₂ ).

What is the relationship between mass and gravity
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. So as the mass of either object increases, the force of gravitational attraction between them also increases.

Describe the physical and chemical weathering​
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Physical weathering is caused by purely mechanical changes to the rock, while chemical weathering is caused by chemical reactions.

Explanation:

Chemical weathering happens when the chemicals get diluted and dissolved in water and seep and percolate down the rock surfaces.

Physical weathering happens when rocks are fragmented into minor fragments while ensuring no alterations in their chemical makeup. The main causes behind physical weathering include spontaneous fluctuations in temperature like too high or too low heat or cold

The electron affinity of an element is positive if energy is absorbed during the process of accepting an electron and negative i
julsineya [31]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Electron affinity is the energy released when an extra electron is added to a neutral gaseous atom. A negative value of electron affinity indicates that energy is given out and vice versa.

Metals have positive electron affinity since electrons rarely accept electrons, so;

Na(g)+ 1e^- → Na^-(g)      positive

Mg(g)+1e^- → Mg^-(g)      positive

For the last case; Br(g)+ 1e^- → Br^-(g), the electron affinity for the non-metals is negative. hence the answer
