When an atom of the unstable isotope Na-24 decays, it becomes an atom of Mg-24 because the Na-24 atom spontaneously releases (2) a<span> beta particle</span>.
When we have this balanced equation for a reaction:
Fe(OH)2(s) ↔ Fe+2 + 2OH-
when Fe(OH)2 give 1 mole of Fe+2 & 2 mol of OH-
so we can assume [Fe+2] = X and [OH-] = 2 X
when Ksp = [Fe+2][OH-]^2
and have Ksp = 4.87x10^-17
[Fe+2]= X
[OH-] = 2X
so by substitution
4.87x10^-17 = X*(2X)^2
∴X^3 = 4.8x10^-17 / 4
∴the molar solubility X = 2.3x10^-6 M
Answer:
The oxidation number of the metal decreases
2 Al + Fe₂O₃ → Al₂O₃ + 2 FeO
The metal element iron, is reduced from Fe⁺³ in Fe₂O₃ to Fe⁺² in FeO
Explanation:
When an element gains electron, the element becomes reduced, hence when a metal is reduced, the metal gains electrons, which reduces the oxidation number of the metal
An example of a metal being reduced is;
2 Al + Fe₂O₃ → Al₂O₃ + 2 FeO
In the above reaction, the iron (III) oxide is reduced to iron (II) oxide by aluminium metal.
Oxygen can combine with a metal to produce a compound
Answer:
Using the coarse adjustment knob of the microscope in high power may lead to the breaking of the slide if adjusted and raised the slide too much which can damage the sample as well as the high power lens.
In this case, I would recommend using the fine adjustment knob and moving away from the end of the viewing area of the microscope so there would no collision take place. The fine adjustment will help to get a clear image.
