How do water molecules move away from their H-O-H configuration to become new molecules?

maksim [4K]

Answer:

A water molecule is consists of two hydrogen atom, each bound to the central oxygen atom through a covalent chemical bond.

Water molecules can form new molecules by moving away from their H-O-H configuration due to thermal motions and rotations. <u>Thermal motions and rotations break the individual hydrogen bonds and change the H-O-H configuration influenced by the temperature and pressure.</u>

Suppose an egyptian mummy is discovered in which the amount of carbon-14 present is only about oneone-fifthfifth the amount fo

poizon [28]

We are given the following equation:

y = y0 e^-0.0001216 t

where y = 1/5 y0, y0 is the original amount

So solving for time t:

1/5 y0= y0 e^-0.0001216 t

t = 13,235.51 years

So the human died about 13235.5 years ago

4Fe (s) + 3 O2 (g) → 2 Fe2O3 (s)

Novay_Z [31]

Explanation:

The number acquired by an element after the lose or gain of an electron is called oxidation number.

For example, $4Fe(s) + 3O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2Fe_{2}O_{3}(s)$

Here, oxidation number of Fe(s) is 0 and Fe in $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ is +3.

Oxidation number of O in $O_{2}(g)$ is 0 as it is present in its elemental state.

The oxidation number of O in $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ is calculated as follows.

$2(3) + 3x = 0\\6 + 3x = 0\\x = \frac{-6}{3}\\= -2$

Hence, oxidation number of O in $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ is -2.

The loss of electrons by an element or substance is called oxidation. Here, electrons are being lost by Fe(s) as an increase in oxidation state is occurring. So, Fe(s) is oxidized.

The gain of electrons by an element or substance is called reduction. Here, electrons are being added to $O_{2}$ as a decrease in its oxidation state is occurring. So, $O_{2}$ is reduced.

An element or compound which is being reduced is called oxidizing agent. Here, $O_{2}$ is the oxidizing agent.

An element or compound which is being oxidized is called reducing agent. Here, Fe(s) is the reducing agent.
