What does an atom gain or lose in an oxidation-reduction reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lapatulllka [165]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: electrons

Explanation:

Oxidation is the loss of electrons during a reaction by a molecules, atom or ion. Oxidation occurs when the oxidation state a molecule, atom or ion is increased. The opposite process is called reduction , which occurs when there is a gain of electrons or the oxidation state of an atom, molecule, or ion decreases

Sergio [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The molecular balanced equation is written below

<u>Explanation:</u>

A molecular equation is defined as the chemical equation in which the ionic compounds are written as molecules rather than component ions.

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

The balanced chemical equation for the decomposition of bromine trifluoride follows:

2BrF_3\rightarrow Br_2+3F_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of bromine trifluoride produces 1 mole of bromine gas and 3 moles of fluorine gas

Hence, the molecular balanced equation is written above.

Why is oiling done time and again in a sewing machine​
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Oiling is done on a regular basis to sewing Machine because in the machine there are lots of machinery parts i.e. wheels and axels, etc. which are in continuous use and they possess so much frictional force between them that wear tear may be observed in those parts.

In the disproportionation reaction CI2 + H2Omc021-1.jpgHCIO + HCI, what describes the oxidation states of the substance Cl?
Sophie [7]
<span>Reaction: CI2 + H2O    ---->  HCIO + HCI

Oxidations states:

The oxitation state of Cl2 = 0, because the oxidation state of an atom alone or a molucule with one kind of atom is always 0.

The oxidation state of Cl in HClO is +1 because the oxidation state of H is + 1, the oxidation state of O is - 2, and the molecule is neutral, so  +1 + 1 - 2 = 0

The oxidation state of Cl in HCl is - 1, because the oxidation state of H is +1 and the molecule is neutral, so - 1 + 1 = 0.

Also, you shall remember that when an atom increases its oxidation state is is oxidized and when an atoms reduces its oxidations state it is reduced.

With that you conclude that the right option is the last statement: </span>Cl has an oxidation number of 0 in Cl2. It is then reduced to CI- with an oxidation number of –1 in HCl and is oxidized to Cl+ with an oxidation number +1 in HClO.
