In order to determine, Order of reaction, we have to add all the exponents written in the Chemical form, on the Reactant species.
Hope this helps!
Let's go through each of the answers and think about why they work or don't work.
Chemical forms compounds.
Nuclear changes the element completely. We're going to use the sun as an example. The sun is in a state of plasma. It's really hot and has all these particles hitting into each other. The nucleus' of atoms are hitting into each other forming larger elements. It's real crazy. Nuclear is not correct.
Physical cannot form a compound.
Answer:
The proton remains the same.
Explanation:
Oxidation is simply defined as the loss of electron(s) during a chemical reaction either by an atom, molecule or ion.
Oxidation is strictly on the transfer of electron(s) and not proton.
A metal that undergoes oxidation still has its protons intact otherwise it will not be called the ion of the metal since atomic number is called the proton number.
Sodium (Na) undergoes oxidation as follow:
Na —> Na+ + e-
Na is called sodium metal.
Na+ is called sodium ion.
Na has 11 electrons and 11 protons
Na+ has 10 electrons and 11 protons
From the above illustration, we can see that the protons of Na and Na+ are the same why their electrons differ because Na+ indicates that 1 electron has been loss or transferred.
When highly electronegative element like oxygen is directly attached to less electronegative element like hydrogen the electrons from less electronegative elements are attracted toward the highly electronegative element, making the less electronegative element deficient in electron density (partial positive) and a partial negative charge on more electronegative element is created. In such situation the intermolecular forces formed are dipole-dipole interactions or hydrogen bond interaction like in HF.
B and/or C because velocity is also know as a vector quantity and speed is a scalar quantity
