PLEASE HELP ME!

Chemistry
1 answer:
uysha [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

1) reduction

2) zero

Explanation:

Let us look at the definition of oxidation and reduction in a nutshell.

Oxidation is electron loss(oxidation number is increased)

Reduction is electron gain(oxidation number is decreased)

With the above definitions in mind let us look again at the equation in question 1:

Br2 + 2e- → 2Br-

We can see that the bromine molecule gained two electrons. Oxidation number decreased from zero on the left hand side of the reaction equation to -1 on the right hand side of the reaction equation hence the equation represents a reduction half equation.

For question 2, silver was displaced from its salt. On the left hand side of the reaction equation, silver had an oxidation number of +2. But remember than one of the riles for determining oxidation number of species is that the oxidation number of an uncombined element is zero. Hence, the oxidation number of silver element on the right hand side of the reaction equation is zero.

based on what you wrote in the table in part a, what effect do lone pairs have on the bond angle? why do you think this happens?
umka21 [38]

Because they are more in close proximity to the core atom's nucleus than lone pairs are, lone pairs reject other lone pairs more strongly than bonding pairs do effect the bond angle.

When a single pair of electrons at the central atom begins to resist the bound pair of electrons, the bond angle decreases and the bonds are slightly shifted inward. It moves existing atoms closer together and modifies their geometry. It's equivalent to include an atom. When there is an increase in back bonding, the bond angle rises. Because the lone pair electrons of the two atoms reject one another, adjacent atoms in a molecule that have lone pair electrons will not be kept together in their bond as securely.

What charge dose an atom have? pls have a claim,Evidence,Reasoning
Andre45 [30]

An atom typically has a neutral charge, as in most cases an atom has the same amount of positively charged protons as it does negatively charged electrons.

Atoms that do not have the same amount of electrons as protons are known as isotopes.
