The correct is tricky, be careful. The right is silicon dioxyde (SiO2)
Silicon Oxides are written in the form SiOx, (0 <x <2), so:
there is no silicon trioxygen and disilicon dioxygen.
SiO is called silicon monoxide and not monosiicon oxygen, so this proposition is false.
All that remains is the silicon dioxide (SiO2) that is written correctly.
Silicon dioxide can be synthesized but also exists in abundance in nature. Silicon (Si) represents about 26% of the Earth's crust. Silica (SiO2), the natural form of silicon dioxide, accounts for about 60%.
Answer:
the sun beams down on the pool and heats it up top to bottom the deeper the colder
Answer:
The unknown element is Carbon.
(a) X is Carbon, its oxide is of acidic nature
(b) C+ O2 → CO2
Explanation:
We are given an unknown element that reacts with oxygen.
X + O2 → XO2
It is given that the oxide XO2 turns blue litmus red which is shown by acids, so XO2 is an acidic oxide. Also X will be a Non metal because Non metallic oxide is Acidic in nature.
The Oxide XO2 is dissolving is water. The oxide upon reacting with water will give an Acid.
XO2 type of oxide is found in the 14th group of the periodic table generally
So we have options like C, Si and Ge as these only have the Acidic oxide.
But when it comes to reactivity with water Only Carbon satisfies the need so the unknown element X is C.
CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 which is an acid.
(a) Element X is Carbon (C), The nature of the compound formed is Acidic.
(b) The reaction given will be as follows
C+ O2 → CO2
Therefore the unknown element is Carbon.
