B, the Internet.
If Caitlin told Teddy that the largest diamond was found YESTERDAY then it wouldn't be in last month's science magazine. It also wouldn't be able to be in an encyclopedia at the library because there wouldn't have been any time to write, publish, and for the library to get the encyclopedia in one day. Caitlin's parents may not know about Caitlin's claim or about the diamond in the first place. The Internet would likely have an article about the news-breaking diamond as soon as possible.
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
State of a substance changes when heat is provided to a substance.
This is because when we heat water then intermoleclar forces present within its molecules tend to break down. Due to this molecules start to move away from each other.
As a result, kinetic energy of molecules increases and they collide rapidly. Hence, solid state of water changes into liquid state and upon excessive heating liquid state of water changes into vapor state.
Thus, we conclude that temperature of water needs to change in order to change its state of matter.
The metalloid that has three valence electrons is Boron~
Volume of osmium = 1.01(0.223)(0.648) = 0.14595 cm3
Density = mass / volume
So density x volume = mass of osmium
22.6 x 0.14595 = 3.29845 g
Answer: D
Explanation:
A reducing agent is a species that reduces other compounds, and is thereby oxidized. The whole compound becomes the reducing agent. In other words, of a compound is oxidized, then they are the reducing agent. On the other hand, if the compound is reduced, it is an ozidizing agent.
Since we have established that a reducing agent is the compound being oxidized, we know that A is not our answer. An oxidized compound is losing electrons. Choice A states exactly this.
For B, this is true as we have established this already.
C is also correct. Since a reducing agent loses electrons, it becomes more positive. This makes the oxidation number increase.
D would be our correct answer. It is actually a good oxidizing agent is a metal in a high oxidation state, such as Mn⁷⁺.
