Answer:
Iron (Fe)
Explanation:
The number of electrons (-) is usually the same as the number of protons (+) in the atom of the element (unless it is an ion).
The element described has 26 electrons, so we can assume that it has 26 protons as well. The number of protons in an atom is the atomic number of element that the atom is.
Element 26 on the PTE is Iron (Fe), which does rust (oxidation) in air and water.
Answer:
option A is correct answer of this question
hope it helps and your day will be full of happiness
Answer:
There are many different types of preservatives like Benzoic acid, Calcium Sorbate, Erythorbic Acid, Potassium Nitrate and Sodium Benzoate. Some act like antioxidants used for slowing down spoilage like Ascorbyl Palmitate, Butylated Hydroxy anisole (BHA) and Butylated Hydroxytoluene (BHT
The reaction is not balanced
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
2Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)
Required
The number of atoms
Solution
In a balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms in the compound that reacts (the reactants and products) will have the same number
Reactants : Fe(s)+O₂(g)
Fe = 2 atoms
O = 3 x 2 = 6 atoms
Products : Fe₂O₃(s)
Fe = 2 x 2 = 4 atoms
O = 2 x 3 = 6 atoms
The reaction is not balanced because the number of Fe atoms is not the same
The balanced reaction should be:
4Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)
