Answer:-
Oxygen gains electrons and is reduced.
Explanation:-
For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is
4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3
When Oxygen is present as oxygen gas, the oxidation number of O is Zero since it is the only element present in Oxygen gas.
Similarly Iron is present in Fe with oxidation number Zero.
In the case of Fe2O3, Oxygen has the oxidation number -2 while Iron has +3.
So the oxidation number of Oxygen goes from Zero to -2.
Since the oxidation number decreases Oxygen is reduced.
Since reduction involves gain of electrons, Oxygen gains electrons.
Answer:
I would recommend them becoming an Analytical Chemist because Analytical Chemists examine and identify various elements and compounds to find out the composition, structure, and nature of substances and they determine the concentration of chemical pollutants in soil, water,and air. I would recommend taking inorganic, organic, analytical, and physical chemistry as well as computer science, physics, and environmental science

<u>Convection currents are identified in Earth's mantle. Heated mantle material is shown rising from deep inside the mantle, while cooler mantle material sinks, creating a convection current. It is thought that this type of current is responsible for the movements of the plates of Earth's crust.</u>
Density (p) = Mass / volume
P=295/15.625
=18.88
therefore p=18.88
