Carbon has a higher boiling point.
The correct answer is (A) from 2nd to 3rd shell.
The explanation :
when a gain of energy is the shift of the electrons from a shell of low energy to the shell of high energy
and we have here 2nd shell is the shell of low energy, and 3rd shell is the shell of high energy.
∴ (A) from 2nd to 3rd shell is the correct answer.
The balanced equation that shows the reaction between oxalic acid and permanganate ion in an acidic medium is: 2MnO4- + 5H2C2O4 + 6H+ -> 2Mn(2+) + 10CO2 + 8H2O. Thus, 1 mole of oxalic acid reacts with 0.4 mole of permanganate ion. This was obtained using stoichiometry:
1 mol H2C2O4 x (2 mol MnO4-/ 5 mol H2C2O4) = 0.4 mol MnO4-
In this redox reaction, the permanganate is reduced to manganese(II) ion.
