If the relative activities of two metals are known which metal is more easily oxidized

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ksivusya [100]3 years ago
6 0
Answer: The metal that has a greater reactivity is more easily oxidized.

Explanation:

Oxidation is when the elements lose electrons and increase their oxidation state.

The metals tend to react by losing electrons and form the corresponding cation.

For expample, sodium (an alkalyne metal) loses one elecron and form the cation Na¹⁺ , then this cation combine with an anion and form compounds like NaCl, NaOH. The same do the other alkalyne metals.

Magnesium (an alkalyne earth metal) loses two electrons and form the cation Mg²⁺, then it combines with some anions to form compounds, like MgSO₄, Mg(OH)₂.

So, the easier the metal gets oxidized the greater its reactivity.

Which of the following will increase the number of collisions without changing the energy of reactant molecules?
natulia [17]

Answer:increasing the concentration of reactants

Explanation:

Collision is the phenomenon in which the reactant molecules come to nearest closness,as a result the reactants are converted into products.

Now the number of effective collision is directly proportional to the number of reactants added..

A sample of gas X occupies 10 mº at a pressure of 120 kPa.
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The new pressure of the gas comes out to be 400 KPa.

Explanation:

Initial volume of gas = V = 10\textrm{ m}^{3}

Initial pressure of gas = P = 120 KPa

Final volume of gas = V' = 3\textrm{ m}^{3}

Assuming temperature to be kept constant.

Assuming final pressure of the gas to be P' KPa

PV = P'V' \\120\textrm{ KPa}\times 10\textrm{ m}^{3} = \textrm{P'}\times 3\textrm{ m}^{3} \\\textrm{P'} = 400\textrm{ KPa}

New pressure of gas = 400 KPa
