Why diamond has a very high melting point than aluminium??

Chemistry
1 answer:
Bogdan [553]3 years ago
8 0
Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms. A lot of energy is needed to separate the atoms in diamond. This is because covalent bonds are strong, and diamond contains very many covalent bonds. This makes diamond's melting point and boiling point very high.

In the reaction 2H2O (1)+ 2Cl^- (aq)= H2(g)+Cl2 (g)+ 2OH^-(aq), which substance is reduced?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:- C. H

Explanations:- Reduction is gain of electron. In other words we could say that decrease in oxidation number is reduction.

As per the rules, oxidation number of hydrogen in its compounds is +1(except metal hydrides) and the oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2.

The oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

In H_2O , the oxidation number of H is +1 and oxidation number of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl^- is -1. On product side, the oxidation number of hydrogen in H_2 is zero and in OH^- the oxidation number of H is +1 and that of O is -2. Oxidation number of Cl in Cl_2 is 0.

From above data, Oxidation number of O is -2 on both sides so it is not reduced.

Oxidation number of Cl is changing from -1 to 0 which is oxidation.

Oxidation number of H is changing from +1 to 0 which is reduction.

So, the right choice is C.H

21. Apply Concepts Classify each reaction and balance the
adell [148]

The reactions are in order which includes combustion reaction, Hydration reaction, oxidation reaction, and displacement reaction.

a) A combustion reaction is a chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant where heat is released. The combustion reaction example is given below. It is a balanced chemical reaction.

2C₃H₆(g) + 9O₂(g) --------> 6CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

b. A hydration reaction is a chemical reaction in which a molecule of water is added to another molecule. Here Aluminum oxide is added to water to form aluminum hydroxide.

4Al₂O3(s) + 6H₂O(l)------> 2Al(OH)3(s)

c. When a metal reacts with oxygen, the metal forms an oxide. Oxide is a compound of metal and oxygen. Here lithium metal reacts with oxygen to form lithium oxide.

2Li(s) + O₂(g)-----> Li₂O(s)

d. A displacement reaction is one in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from a compound. Here Zinc is more reactive than silver, so silver was displaced to form Zinc Nitrate.

Zn(s) + 2AgNO₃(aq) -----> 2Ag(s) + Zn(NO₃)₂(aq)

Why is frying an egg an example of a chemical change
skelet666 [1.2K]
A Chemical change is any form of chemical reaction changing the state of the matter involved. When you fry an egg, you are making a reaction between the heat and the chemicals that make up the egg. Therefore once you have fried that egg, you have completed a chemical reaction. This is why it's a chemical change when you fry an egg.
