Answer:
D. They have the same number of protons as electrons.
Explanation:
Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom and have a positive charge while electrons orbit around the nucleus and have a negative charge. Usually, in a neutral atom of an element, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. This is why the atom has no charge because the positive and negative charges cancel out. When an atom loses an electron its charge turns positive while when it gains an electron its charge turns negative.
Oxidation is the loss of electrons and corresponds to an increase in oxidation state. Reduction is the gain of electrons and corresponds to a decrease in oxidation state. Balancing redox reactions can be more complicated than balancing other types of reactions because both the mass and charge must be balanced. Redox reactions occurring in aqueous solutions can be balanced by using a special procedure called the half-reaction method of balancing. In this procedure the overall equation is broken down into two half-reactions: one for oxidation and the other for reduction. The half-reactions are balanced individually and then added together so that the number of electrons generated in the oxidation half reaction is the same as the number of electrons consumed in the reduction half-reaction.
thats kinda hot not even gon'
Answer: 2.22 litres
Explanation:
Given that,
Original pressure of gas (P1) = 200.0 kPa
[Since final pressure is given in atmosphere, Convert 200.0 kPa to atmosphere
If 101.325 kPa = 1 atm
200.0 kPa = 200.0/101.325
= 1.9738 atm]
Original volume of oxygen O2 (V1) = 25.5L
New pressure of gas (P2) = 11.2 atm
New volume of gas (V2) = ?
Since pressure and volume are given while temperature is held constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law
P1V1 = P2V2
0.9738 atm x 25.5L = 11.2 atm x V2
24.8319 atm•L = 11.2 atm•V2
Divide both sides by 11.2 atm to get V2
24.8319 atm•L/11.2 atm = 11.2 atm•V2/11.2 atm
2.217 L = V2
[Round 2.217L to the nearest hundredth as 2.22L]
Thus, the new volume of the gas at 11.2 atm of pressure is 2.22 litres
