Answer:-
Oxygen gains electrons and is reduced.
Explanation:-
For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is
4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3
When Oxygen is present as oxygen gas, the oxidation number of O is Zero since it is the only element present in Oxygen gas.
Similarly Iron is present in Fe with oxidation number Zero.
In the case of Fe2O3, Oxygen has the oxidation number -2 while Iron has +3.
So the oxidation number of Oxygen goes from Zero to -2.
Since the oxidation number decreases Oxygen is reduced.
Since reduction involves gain of electrons, Oxygen gains electrons.
A. The patch's area in square kilometers (km²) is 1.61×10⁻⁹ km²
B. The cost of the patch to the nearest cent is 734 cents
<h3>A. How to convert 16.1 cm² to square kilometers (km²)</h3>
We can convert 16.1 cm² to km² as illustrated below:
Conversion scale
1 cm² = 1×10⁻¹⁰ km²
Therefore,
16.1 cm² = 16.1 × 1×10⁻¹⁰
16.1 cm² = 1.61×10⁻⁹ km²
Thus, 16.1 cm² is equivalent to 1.61×10⁻⁹ km²
<h3>B. How to determine the cost in cent</h3>
We'll begin by converting 16.1 cm² to in². This can be obtained as illustrated below:
1 cm² = 0.155 in²
Therefore,
16.1 cm² = 16.1 × 0.155
16.1 cm² = 2.4955 in²
Finally, we shall the determine the cost in centas fo r llow:
- Cost per in² = $2.94 = 294 cent
- Cost of 2.4955 in² =?
1 in² = 294 cent
Therefore,
2.4955 in² = 2.4955 × 294
2.4955 in² = 734 cents
Thus, the cost of the patch is 734 cents

Well it depends how close the places are to the edges of tectonic plates. Also the damage caused from the Earthquakes has to do with how sturdy the buildings are and whether they were built to withhold such strong forces.
