Answer:
i) B
ii) D
Explanation:
<em>Bond length is determined by the size of the atoms involved and the bond order </em>
A) C-I
B) H-I
answer : H-I has the shortest bond length because H has an electronegativity value of 2.2 while C has an electronegativity value of 2.5 hence the bond between H-I is greater than C - I due the electronegativity difference between H-I is greater as well.
C) H-Cl
D) H-I
answer : H-Cl has the shortest bond length due the electronegativity difference between H-CI is greater as well.
The balanced redox reaction, if it occurs in acidic solution, is
5C₂O₄²⁻(aq) + 2MnO₄⁻(aq) + 16H⁺-----> 10CO₂(g) + 2Mn²⁺(aq) + 8H₂O(l)
<h3>What are redox reaction?</h3>
Redox reactions are those in which loss and again of electrons occur.
To balance the redox reaction, we must first break the whole reaction into half equations;
Oxidation half equation
Reduction half equation
Now combine both the reactions
Thus, the coefficient of H₂C₂O₄ is 5 and that of water is 8.

Answer:
Open spaces in water's solid structure makes its solid state less dense than its liquid state.
Explanation:
- Water unlike other liquids is special. It contracts when cooled, down to a temperature of 4°C but thereafter begins to expand as it reaches 0°C and turns into ice.
- This property is useful for the preservation of marine life in very cold temperatures. During winter, the surface water in water lakes and rivers starts cooling. Upon reaching the temperature of 4°C, the surface water descends to the bottom as it denser.
- This help in the maintenance of temperature of the water at the bottom at 4°C. It is in this layer that marine life is sustained.
