Answer: The oxidation state of a free element (uncombined element) is zero. For a simple (monoatomic) ion, the oxidation state is equal to the net charge on the ion. For example, Cl– has an oxidation state of -1. When present in most compounds, hydrogen has an oxidation state of +1 and oxygen an oxidation state of −2.

Answer:
A. Mafic; iron and/or magnesium
Explanation:
Let's find the answer by naming some minerals and their chemistry.
Mafic minerals are dark-colored whereas felsic minerals are light-colored, thats way mafic rocks are dark-colored because they are mainly composed by mafic minerals and the other way around for felsic rocks.
But remember that mafic minerals as amphiboles, pyroxenes or biotites, involve in their chemical structure iron and/or magnesium. Although calcium and sodium can be incorporated in amphiboles and clinopyroxenes, they are not involved in orthopyroxenes and biotites. On the other hand, although potassium is involved in biotite and in some extent in amphiboles, this element is not involved in pyroxenes.
So in conclusion, mafic minerals are usually dark-colored because they involve iron and/or magnesium in their chemical structures.

Answer:
more rapid
Explanation:
A higher temperature of fresh concrete results in a more rapid hydration of cement. This causes reduction in the setting time of the cement, also known as accelerated setting of the cement.
It also reduces the workability of the concrete; as it makes the movement of aggregates harder by reducing the lubricating effect of the cement.
