Answer:

O.

Explanation:

  • The element which is oxidized is the element that losses electrons and its oxidation state be more positive.
  • The element which is reduced is the element that gain electrons and its oxidation state be more negative.

<em> O goes from 0 to -2, so, it is the element that is reduced.</em>

At sea level, where the pressure was 104 kPa and temperature 21.1 ºC, a certain mass of air occupies 2.0 m3 . To what volume wil
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The volume of air at where the pressure and temperature are  52 kPa, -5.0 ºC is 3.64 m^3.

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 104 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 52 kPa

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 2.0m^3

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 21.1^oC=273+21.1=294.1K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = -5.0^oC=273+(-5.0)=268 K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{104 kPa\times 2.0m^3}{294.1 K}=\frac{52 kPa\times V_2}{268 K}

V_2=3.64 m^3

The volume of air at where the pressure and temperature are  52 kPa, -5.0 ºC is 3.64 m^3.

Explain the composition of dna nucleotides and the structure of the dna molecule need help
Kaylis [27]

A nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group, sugar, and nitrogen base. DNA is made of 2 strands of nucleotides linked together by covalent bonds between the phosphate and sugar of each nucleotide. The strands of nucleotides are linked together by hydrogen bonds creating DNA. Hope this helps and sorry if I made a mistake.

Please help explain and don't answer if you don't know. thank you
ipn [44]

Answer:

The group 18 elements are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and radon (Rn). These elements are non-reactive and are called noble gases as they have their outermost orbit complete. Due to stable electronic configuration they hardly react with other elements.The name comes from the fact that these elements are virtually unreactive towards other elements or compounds.The group 18 elements are called noble or inert gases. As the name suggests these are inert because chemically they are very less reactive or not at all reactive.The full valence electron shells of these atoms make the noble gases extremely stable.
