What element is being oxidized in the following redox reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
DIA [1.3K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The element that has been oxidized is the N

Explanation:

Zn²⁺(aq) + NH₄⁺(aq) → Zn(s) + NO₃⁻(aq)

See all the oxidation states:

Zn²⁺  → acts with +2

In ammonia, H acts with +1 and N with -3

Zn(s), acts with 0. In all the elements in ground state, the oxidation state is 0.

Zn changed from 2+ to 0. The oxidation number, has decreased.

This element has been reduced.

NO₃⁻ (aq) it's a ion, from nitric acid.

N acts with +5

O acts with -2

The global charge is -1

The N, has increased the oxidation state, so this element is the one oxidized.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is

D. 3 miles (4.5 kilometers)

Explanation:

The Carbonate compensation depth or (CCD) is the ocean depth at which calcite, (calcium carbonate) dissolves. At the CCD, the solvation rate of calcite is greater than the supply rate, such that all calcite are consumed.

The carbonate compensation depth varies in different parts of the ocean and can be reached at about 3 miles or 4.5 Kilometers.
