Hey there!:

Copper plating on Zinc will occur via this simple reaction:

Cu²⁺   +   2 e⁻   ⇌   Cu

When a species gains electron, it is reduced. Its oxidation state is decreased. For example, in the above reaction Cu2+ gained 2 electron to get reduced to Cu. Its oxidation state changed from +2 to 0. Hence it is a reduction reaction.

So, the correct answer is  :

The copper II ions  gain two electrons and are reduced.

Answer B

Hope this helps!

- 5. Describe the general trend in atomic radil across a row of the periodic table.​
sattari [20]

Answer:

Across a row, atomic radii decreases.

Explanation:

It decreases because nuclear charge increases across a row, electrons are added to the same shell and shielding remains constant. Therefore the outer electrons are more attracted to the nucleus making the atom smaller.

The metal tantalum becomes superconducting at temperatures below 4.483 K. Calculate the temperature at which tantalum becomes su
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "-268.667°C".

Explanation:

Given:

Temperature,

= 4.483 K (below)

Now,

The formula of temperature conversion will be:

⇒ T(^{\circ} C)=T(K)-273.15

By putting the values, we get

⇒            =4.483-273.15

⇒            =-268.667^{\circ} C

Thus the above is the correct answer.
