<span>Answer: The particles of the substace move away from each other and slip breaking the crystalline structure.
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
Explanation:
</span><span />

<span>Melting is the change of phase from solid to liquid.
</span><span />

<span>Melting is the result of adding heat to the solid.
</span><span />

<span>The particles in a solid are arranged in fixed structures, called lattices, in which the partilces are packed closed together to each other, and so they cannot move one respect to others.
</span><span />

<span>At the melting point, as heated is added, the partilcles vibrate and move more rapidly, gaining kinetic energy.
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>The kinetic energy gained by the heat transferred is not used to increase the temperature but to increase the speed of the particles which finally manage to slip out of the fixed structure and so become liquid.</span>

<span>When a substance is heated, its atoms gain energy and begin to vibrate rapidly within the lattice of the substance (the substance expands). As more heating continues, the atoms gain even more energy and move more rapidly until they are able to overcome the force of the bonds, that hold the atoms together in the lattice, until the structure is disrupted.  </span>

Write the overall, balanced molecular equation and indicate which element is oxidized and which is reduced for the following rea
REY [17]

Explanation:

Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3 (aq)

Overall, balanced molecular equation

Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3(aq) --> Mg(C2H3O2)3(aq) + Cr(s)

To identify if an element has been reduced or oxidized, the oxidation number is observed in both the reactant and product phase.

An increase in oxidation number denotes that the element has been oxidized.

A decrease in oxidation number denotes that the element has been reduced.

Oxidation number of Mg:

Reactant - 0

Product - +3

Oxidation number of Cr:

Reactant - +3

Product - 0

Note: C2H3O2 is actually acetate ion; CH3COO- The oxidatioon number of C, H and O do not change.

Oxidized : Mg

Reduced : Cr
