Answer:
Hydrogen
Explanation:
A reducing agent is a substance which gives up its electrons to become oxidized. Generally, metals are oxidized (reducing agents) while non-metals are reduced (oxidizing agents).
However, hydrogen which is a non-metal is usually oxidized in the presence of stronger oxidizing non-metals such as fluorine and oxygen.
Hydrogen thus, acts as a reducing agent by giving up its electrons to become oxidized. Even though among all non-metals, Hydrogen has the greatest potential to be oxidized, it is a poor reducing agent compared to reactive metals.
Let's break this down. We know from our balanced equation that (in theory) we'll get the same number of moles of copper out of the reaction that we put into it. So we need to find the number of moles of CuSO4 we have in 200.0 grams. Using the molar mass of CuSO4:
200.0 grams CuSO4 * (1 mole CuSO4)/(159.61 grams CuSO4) =
1.253 moles CuSO4
We know that the moles of CuSO4 and Cu are one-to-one, so we should yield the same number of moles of copper. If we multiply by copper's molar mass, we get:
1.253 moles Cu * (63.55 grams Cu)/(1 mole Cu) = 79.63 grams Cu
Answer:
It is a network solid, a lattice of many covalent bonds (like diamond, except that it is black rather than transparent).
Explanation:
I believe the answer is C. an unstable nucleus emits radiation and is transformed into the nucleus of one or more elements. i hope this helps!
Answer:
2-hydroxy
Explanation:
The 4-hydroxy has a reduced dipole because its two electronegative substituents give it a dipole in opposite directions. On the other hand the 2-hydroxy has dipoles that add together.
