Reduction <span>always results in a lowering of the oxidation number. The reaction of the system above is written as:
</span><span>Cu2+(aq) + Fe(s) --> Cu(s) + Fe2+(aq)
</span>
From the reaction, we see that copper goes from the +2 to a neutral charge. Lowering of the oxidation number happens so this is the element that is being reduced.
Hydrogen, helium, lithium,
Two non-polar molecules are most likely to interact by
induced dipole-induced dipole interaction.
Non-polar substances do not have a permanently established charge distribution due to similar electron affinities of the atoms that are present. Moreover, due to the absence of a polar hydrogen, they cannot exhibit hydrogen bonding. They interact with one another by induced dipole-induced dipole interactions which arise from the molecules of the substances coming into close vicinity of one another.
The cytoplasm slides and forms a pseudopodium in front to move the cell forwards.
