M → M+ + e- Is M an oxidizing or reducing agent?

Chemistry
1 answer:
yan [13]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

M is reducing agent.

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized.

Consider the following reactions:

M → M⁺ + e⁻

In this reaction the oxidation state of M is increased which means it is reducing agent. It gives the electron to the other to reduce that element and itself gets oxidized.

This type of radiation is smallest and highest in energy
Pavel [41]

As your question is vague, I am assuming that you are talking Alpha, Beta and Gamma radiation. Out of these three radiation, Gamma radiation is the smallest in size compared to Alpha or Beta, but it has the highest energy levels. Gamma radiation is also known as photons. In other words, photons are light particles.

Which substance would most likely need to cool to the lowest temperature before it condenses?
lozanna [386]

b. ethane (C2H6), a nonpolar covalent compound

Explanation:

The substance that would most likely need to cool to the lowest temperature before it condenses is ethane, a non-polar covalent compound.

Ethane in liquid form has very weak attractive forces binding the molecules together.

To form and change state, all the molecules must be brought very close together under very high pressure and low temperature. Else, they will not attract one another.

  • Ionic crystal lattice forces as seen in KBr are strong attractive forces. As a substance such as KBr begins to condense, they begin to attract one another with a very strong force even before they cool to their least temperature.
  • Ammonia has strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds in its structure which binds them together. The attraction is great between the hydrogen of one molecule and the nitrogen of another.
  • In ethane we have a weak attraction.
