Explanation:
Fishes and some other sea foods are are known to concentrate mercury in their bodies. Consumption of these products gradually accumulate mercury in the body over time.
More specifically, fishes like swordfish, king mackerel and shark are known to concentrate higher amount of mercury than other species of fishes. Hence, limiting their consumption will protect humans from mercury poisoning.
The correct option is b.
Answer:
The O is being oxidized, but at the same time, is being reducted.
Explanation:
H₂O₂(l) + ClO₂(aq) → ClO₂(aq) + O₂(g)
In this reaction, we have 4 compounds:
Hydrogen peroxide
Chlorine dioxide (twice)
Oxygen
In both dioxide, the Cl acts with +4 in oxidation state; the oxygen acts with -2.
Oxgen in ground state has 0, as oxidation number.
In peroxide, the H acts with +1 but the oxygen acts with -1.
Peroxide is making the oxidation number from the O in the ClO₂, to decrease (reduction) and to increase in the O, at the ground state.
Hydrogen peroxide is a good reducing and oxidizing agent at the same time.
An electron is smaller than a proton. An electron has the opposite charge of a proton. An electron is outside the nucleus, while a proton is part of the nucleus.
