Answer:

Explanation:

a. Oxidation : 2O + 4e^- ------> 2O^2-

b. Reduction: 2Sr - 4e- -------> Sr^2+

c. Balanced redox reaction

2Sr + O2 ------------> 2Sr O

Oxidation and reduction can be defined by various means, addition of oxygen, removal of hydrogen, removal of electrons. For this reaction, this definition is used, oxidation is the loss of electrons while reduction is the gaining of electrons.

In (a) oxidation half reaction, the valency of oxygen is zero and then moves into lossing two electrons resulting into -2 valency.

In (b) reduction half reaction, the valency of Sr is zero and gains electrons resulting into valency of 2.

In the overall redox reaction, Sr and O2 with valency of 0 each reacts together and form SrO with valency of 2 and -2 respectively, which gives 0 and then balances the equation.

Two species of frog mate in the same pond. One breeds in early summer and one in late summer. This is an example of what kind of
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Pre-zygotic, temporal separation

Explanation:

Reproductive isolation mechanism is of two types:

  • Prezygotic mechanism
  • Postzygotic mechanism

Prezygotic mechanism isolation occurs before fertilization and helpful in preventing formation of fertile offspring.

In frog external fertilization occurs. In the external fertilization, eggs and sperms are released in water and fertilization occur outside the water.

Prezygotic isolating mechanisms may include behavioral isolation, temporal isolation, mechanical isolation, gametic isolation and habitat isolation.

Temporal separation in reproduction is the sexual activity in the same geographical range but in different periods.

Therefore, the given reproductive isolation is pre-zygotic, temporal separation.

How does the density of a gas affect the speed of sound
ZanzabumX [31]

Increased density decreases the speed of sound in a medium. While increased density can mean increased rigidity, or stiffness, it is not always the case. Greater density can be due to each molecule or atom having more momentum, and being slower to respond to the vibration of its neighbor.
