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.

A jar is filled with water, and the lid is closed tightly. The jar is kept at constant temperature. What happens at the surface
Katarina [22]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The correct answer is A: Water molecules evaporate and condense at the same rate.

<h2>Why?</h2>

Evaporation is defined as the physical change from liquid to gas, and Condensation is the physical change from gas to liquid.

At any given temperature, these two processes occur at once, in a dynamic equilibrium.

When the lid is closed, evaporation occurs faster than condensation, and pressure increases. Then, when pressure reaches a critical value, condensation starts to occur faster than evaporation, until an equilibrium is reached, and the pressure of the water molecules in the gas phase is maximum for that temperature. The pressure at that point is called Vapor Pressure.

Have a nice day!
