Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons. The oxidizing agent is reduced. The reducing agent is oxidized. Cu goes from 0 to +2, it lost electrons S went from +6 to +4, it gained electrons I went from 0 to +5, it lost electrons N went from +5 to +4, it gained electrons.

Write a hypothesis about the pH level of common household solutions based on what you know about their physical and chemical pro
docker41 [41]

If pH is less than seven (pH<7), solution is acidic.

If pH is equal seven (pH = 7), solution is neutral.  

If pH is greater than seven (pH > 7), solution is basic.  

Some examples:

1) Acidic - gastric juices pH 1, lemon juice pH 2.2, tomato juice pH 4.

2) Neutral - salt solution pH 7.

3) Alkaline - baking soda pH 9, bleach pH 13.

pH is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.

Consider the following system at equilibrium:A(aq)+B(aq) &lt;---&gt; 2C(aq)Classify each of the following actions by whether it
velikii [3]

Explanation:

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle.

This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

  • On addition of reactant at equilibrium shifts the equilibrium in forward direction.
  • On addition of product at equilibrium shifts the equilibrium in backward direction.
  • On removal of reactant at equilibrium shifts the equilibrium in backward direction.
  • On removal of product at equilibrium shifts the equilibrium in forward direction.

A(aq)+B(aq)\rightleftharpoons 2C(aq)

Reactants = A , B

Product = C

1. Increase A

On increasing the amount of A at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium in forward or rightward direction.

2. Increase B

On increasing the amount of B at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium in forward or rightward direction.

3. Increase C

On increasing the amount of C at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium in backward or leftward direction.

4. Decease A

On decreasing the amount of A at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium in backward or leftward direction.

5. Decease B

On decreasing the amount of B at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium in backward or leftward direction.

6. Decease C

On decreasing the amount of C at equilibrium will shift the equilibrium in forward or rightward direction.

7. Double A and Halve B

Equilibrium constant of the reaction = K

K=\frac{[C]^2}{[A][B]}

On doubling A and halving B, equilibrium constant of the reaction = K'

K'=\frac{[C]^2}{[2A][\frac{B}{2}]}=\frac{[C]^2}{[A][B]}

The value of equilibrium constant K' is equal to K, which means that equilibrium will not shift in any direction.

8. Double both B and C

Equilibrium constant of the reaction = K

K=\frac{[C]^2}{[A][B]}

On doubling B and C, equilibrium constant of the reaction = K'

K'=\frac{[2C]^2}{[A][2B]}=\frac{4[C]^2}{[A][2B]}=\frac{2[C]^2}{[A][B]}

K' = 2 K

The value of equilibrium constant K' is double the K, which means that product is increasing which means that equilibrium will shift in backward or leftward direction.

According to the law of conservation of matter, which statement about chemical reactions is true?
Zolol [24]

The law of conservation of matter basically states that matter can’t be created or destroyed, only changed in form, so you can rule out any option that mentions destroying or creating matter. That leaves only option A. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed by chemical reactions.

Identify whether the description refers to a monomer, a polymer, or both. Macromolecule:
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Macromolecule: polymer

Repeating units: monomer

Simple molecule: monomer

Covalent bonds: both

Explanation:

A macromolecule is a very large molecule commonly created by the polymerization of smaller subunits called monomers. They are typically composed of thousands of atoms or more.

A  monomer is a molecule that can be reacted together with other monomer molecules to form a larger polymer chain.

Polymers include bounds between nonmetal atoms, therefore, they are joint by covalent bonds
