Chemistry

Answer:

Ag

Explanation:

To determine which element will displace hydrogen from a dilute acid, we need to make reference to the activity series or the electrochemical series. The activity series is a list of metallic ions according to their electropositivity.

This means elements are ranked here based on how electrically positive they are. Hence, an element above another element is relatively more electropositive than the one under it. For example calcium is less electropositive compared to sodium as calcium is found under sodium in the list.

Now, for an element to displace hydrogen, it means the particular element is more electropositive than hydrogen on the activity series. All the elements in the options are in a greater position relative to hydrogen on the activity series except silver. This means it cannot displace hydrogen from a dilute mineral acid

What are valence electrons ?
Arada [10]

Answer:In chemistry, a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

As much as 25 percent of the fruits and vegetables grown in Chinese agricultural regions rot before they can be transported the
gulaghasi [49]

C. Developing effective methods of food preservation

Explanation:

The development of effective methods of food preservation is a much more smaller and manageable problem that contributes to the complex problem.

The percentage of food rotting is not as a result of lack of an effective preservation technique as highlighted in the passage. It is due to the long distances of agricultural area from where the farms are located.

  • To cut the loss, efficient and rapid transportation techniques needs to be put in place to carry the fruits and vegetables to the area where they are needed.
  • This is the most complex problem that if solved can peg back food rot.
  • Additional measures should be put in place to preserve the food.

Other options does not address the subject matter
