Which best describes the oxidizing agent in this reaction? Cl2(aq) + 2Br(aq) 2Cl(aq) + Br2(aq) Bromine (Br) is the oxidizing age
nt because it gains an electron. Bromine (Br) is the oxidizing agent because it loses an electron. Chlorine (Cl) is the oxidizing agent because it gains an electron. Chlorine (Cl) is the oxidizing agent because it loses an electron
Two atoms of Br⁻ (Bromide) looses two electrons to form Br₂ molecule. Hence it is oxidized and is acting as reducing agent.
Reduction Reaction:
Cl₂ + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻
One molecule of Cl₂ gains two electrons to form two chloride ions (Cl⁻). Therefore, it is reduced and has oxidized Br⁻, Hence, acting as a oxidizing agent.
The temperature stays constant during the phase change process . This is because the matter has more internal energy and heat has to be taken away for the solidification process to begin. The energy that is required for a phase change is know as latent heat (which is the energy released or absorbed by a body during a thermodynamic process).
The protein is an organic compound which is made up of the amino acids methionine, arginine, and leucine etc.
<em>Explanation:</em>
Most of the amino acid are linked with others amino acid through peptide linkage to form proteins. The peptide bond is formed between the two amino acid involving carboxylic and amino group.
The proteins produce by this way may be simple, conjugated and derived proteins.
