Answer:
D
Explanation:
We know that the
reaction catalyzing power of a catalyst ∝ surface area exposed by it
Given
volume V1= 10 cm^3
⇒
hence r= 1.545 cm
also, surface area S1=
now when the sphere is broken down into 8 smaller spheres
S2= 8×4πr'^2
now, equating V1 and V2 ( as the volume must remain same )
and solving we get
r'= r/2
therefore, S2=
S2=
S2= 2S1
hence the correct answer is
. The second run has twice the surface area.
Answer: It loses electrons to another element.
Explanation:- Oxidation is the process in which an element loses electrons and there is an increase in the oxidation state. On losing electrons it combines with a electronegative element such as oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen etc.
Reduction is the process in which an element gains electrons and there is a decrease in the oxidation state.
