Oxidation refers to a change in electrons (In this case, loss of electrons). It has no impact on the number of neutrons, or for that matter on any sub-atomic particles in the nucleus. So the number of neutrons (3) remains the same

Answer:

Hence the correct answer is remains the same

Explanation:

As a Ca atom undergoes oxidation to Ca2+,as follows:

Ca --- Ca 2+ + 2e-

In the process of oxidation calcium loss 2 electron only there is no change in the number of protons as well neutrons therefore there is no change in the number of neutrons in its nucleus

Hence the correct answer is remains the same

Oxidation:

Oxidation is a process in which either 1 or all following changes occurs:

1. Gaining of oxygen atoms

2. Loss of electrons

3. Loss of hydrogen atom.

4. Increasing oxidation number.

Reduction:

Reduction is a process in which either 1 or all following changes occurs:

1. Loss of oxygen atoms

2. Gaining of electrons

3. Gaining of hydrogen atom.

4. Decreasing oxidation number.

Determine the number of carbon atoms in 1.00 kg of carbon dioxide.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

1.37x10²⁵atoms of carbon

2.74x10²⁵ atoms of oxygen.

33.7g of KNO₃

Explanation:

To answer this question you must use molar mass of carbon dioxide (44g/mol) and 1 mole are 6.022x10²³atoms.

1.00kg are 1000g of CO₂. Moles are:

1000g CO₂ * (1mol / 44g) = 22.73 moles of CO₂ = 22.73 moles of carbon.

In atoms:

22.73 moles C * (6.022x10²³atoms / 1mole) = 1.37x10²⁵atoms of carbon

There are 22.73 moles of CO₂ * 2 = 45.45 moles of oxygen are present in the carbon dioxide. In atoms:

45.45 moles Oxygen * (6.022x10²³atoms / 1mole) = 2.74x10²⁵ atoms of oxygen.

1 mole of Potassium nitrate, KNO₃, contains 3 moles of oxygen. 1 mol of oxygen are:

1.00 mol O * (1mol KNO₃ / 3 moles O) = 0.33 moles of KNO₃

As molar mass of KNO₃ is 101.1g/mol:

0.33 moles of KNO₃ * (101.1g / mol) = 33.7g of KNO₃

Sort these six events from the earliest to the most recent. Democritus proposes the existence of atoms- Dalton's atomic theory-
Igoryamba
These events are actually sorted right, according to the time they occurred.
1. Democritus proposes the existence of atoms - this happened in the 5th century BC
2. Dalton's atomic theory - it was first presented in 1803
3. J.J. Thomson discovers the electron - happened in 1897
4. Rutherford's gold foil experiment - somewhere between 1908 and 1913
5. Bohr model - it was introduced in 1913
6. Schrodinger's wave - the equation was published in 1925
