Answer:

Ag^+ is reduced to Ag^0

Explanation:

Based on the equation

Ca+Ag^+=Ca^2+ + Ag

Ca^0 is increased to Ca^2+

And Ag^+ is reduced to Ag^0

Answer: Ag is reduced in the reaction.

Explanation: From the balanced equation: Ca + Ag+ => Ca2+ + Ag

For an element to be reduced there must be a decrease in oxidation number. For Ca in the reactant it is an independent atom so its oxidation number is 0. The on the product the oxidation number of Ca increases to 2+. So Ca is oxidized.

Ag in the reactant has an oxidation of +1 and decreases on the product side where its oxidation is 0. So Ag is reduced in the reaction since there is a decrease in oxidation number.

chubhunter [2.5K]
Momentum is a term used to quantify the motion of an object has. It is calculated as the the product of the object's mass and the velocity. It is expressed as:
Momentum = m x vMomentum = 50 kg x 5 m/sMomentum = 250 kg m/s
Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.

Define alkylenes and alkanes​
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Alkylenes: any of the series of unsaturated hydrocarbons containing a triple bond, including acetylene.

alkanes​: Alkanes are organic compounds that consist entirely of single-bonded carbon and hydrogen atoms and lack any other functional groups. Alkanes have the general formula CnH2n+2 and can be subdivided into the following three groups: the linear straight-chain alkanes, branched alkanes, and cycloalkanes.

What is the formula unit for a compound made from Fe3+ and oxygen?
Alexeev081 [22]
Fe2O3 because O has a -2 charge and Fe and +3, you want the charges to equal each other so if you have 2 Fe with +3 charge the charge becomes 6 if you have 3 O with -2 charge the charge becomes 6.
