The bad smelling element is Sulfur, which smells like rotting eggs.
Answer:
A. Both freezing and melting are physical changes.
Explanation:
Even if you were to freeze water, the molecules are still water molecules, and vise versa with melting it.
Answer:
Explanation:
In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.
We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.
The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.
To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:
- The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
- The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to the charge on the ion.
For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻
This would be: 2x + 7(-2) = -2
x = +6
We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.
Answer: B= Rusting ability
Explanation:
Physical property is defined as the property which can be measured and whose value describes the state of physical system. For Example: State, density etc.
Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which is observed during a reaction where the chemical composition identity of the substance gets changed.
1. Boiling point: is a physical property as there is a change of state.
2. Rusting ability: is a chemical property as there is formation of new substances.
3. Melting point: is a physical property as there is a change of state.
4. Density: is a physical property as there is no formation of new substances.
Answer:
b. transfer of electron(s).
Explanation:
An oxidation-reduction also called a redox reaction is a
chemical reaction in which electrons are transferred of between two species of reactants. It is a chemical reaction where the oxidation number of an atom, ion, or molecule, increases or decreases by losing or gaining electrons
