Answer: The particles in a solid are packed very close to each other.
The oxidation number of elements in equation below are,
4NH₃ + 3Ca(ClO)₂ → 2N₂ + 6H₂O + 3CaCl₂
O.N of N in NH₃ = -3
O.N of Ca in Ca(ClO)₂ and CaCl₂ = +2
O.N of N in N₂ = 0
O.N of Cl in Ca(ClO)₂ = +1
O.N of Cl in CaCl₂ = -1
Oxidation:
Oxidation number of Nitrogen is increasing from -3 (NH₃) to 0 (N₂).
Reduction:
Oxidation number of Cl is decreasing from +1 [Ca(ClO)₂] to -1 (CaCl₂).
Result:
<span>N is oxidized and Cl is reduced.</span>
Answer:
exothermic reaction
Explanation:
If there is a drop in temperature, then energy was lost to the surroundings because temperature is the average measure of kinetic energy. An exothermic reaction would result in this lost of energy. An endothermic reaction would absorb energy and make the temperature rise.
Answer:
Option D: More than 30 seconds
Explanation:
The enzyme CATALASE is found in almost all living organisms. CATALASE helps in the decomposition of one substance into another substance. CATALASE will breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.
When the potatoes were boiled it will surely produce no bubbles because the heat would have degrade the enzyme - catalase While the potatoes at room temperature potato produced the most bubbles because catalase works best at a room temperature.
If the potato solution was boiled for 10 minutes and cooled for 10 minutes before being tested, the average time for the disks to float to the surface of the hydrogen peroxide solution would be MORE THAN 30 SECONDS
