Answer: The element Na (Sodium) is getting oxidized and Hydrogen is getting reduced.

Explanation:

Oxidation reactions are the reactions in which addition of oxygen takes place.

Reduction reactions are the reactions in which loss of oxygen takes place.

For a given reaction:

$2Na(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_2(g)+2NaOH(aq.)$

Sodium is getting oxidized because there is an addition of reaction with that element.

Hydrogen is getting reduced because there is a removal of oxygen with that element.

What is the final pressure of a system (atm) that has the volume increased from 0.75 l to 1.1 l with an initial pressure of 1.25

lana66690 [7]

Boyle's law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume of gas at constant temperature
PV = k
where P - pressure , V - volume and k - constant
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
substituting these values in the equation
1.25 atm x 0.75 L = P x 1.1 L
P = 0.85 atm
final pressure is B) 0.85 atm

CH3OCH3 (ether) will dissolve in water because

dangina [55]

Answer:

a. polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents.

Explanation:

Polarity is a phenomenon that has to do with the positive and negative electric (ionic) charges of a molecule. A molecule with distinct positive and electric charge is said to be POLAR. However, water is said to be a universal solvent because it dissolves more substances than any other solvent can.

This solvent property of water is a function of its POLARITY. Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents. Hence, only polar solutes can dissolve in water (a polar solvent). Hence, in this case, CH3OCH3 (ether) will dissolve in water because it is a POLAR molecule/solute.

imine formation is an acid-catalyzed process, however the procedure performed in this does not require the addition of an extern

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Reaction between p- toluidine and o- vaniline to form imine.This reaction does occur in the presence of a acidic source.

Here the -OH group in the o- vaniline is quite acidic so it acts a internal acidic catalyst. Hence the reaction occurred in the absence of any external acidic source.The reaction mechanism is given at the attached file.

please kindly see attachment.

All isotopes of a particular element have the same atomic number. how then do the isotopes of a particular element differ?

White raven [17]

They have less or more neutrons. Isotopes have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.
