Answer:
1+1=2 Unless this is a trick question. Then it's most likely 11.
Explanation:
It has: 2 atoms of sodium (Na) 1 atom of Carbon 3 atoms of Oxygen bound together with ionic and polar-covalent bonds
Oxidation state of I is (-1) and for CO it is zero. Let's assume that the oxidation state of Fe in Fe(CO)₄I₂<span> (s) is x. For whole compound, the charge is zero.
Sum of oxidation numbers in all elements = Charge of the compound.
Here we have 1Fe , 4CO and 2I
hence we can find the oxidation state as;
x + 4*0 + 2*(-1) = 0
x + 0 - 2 = 0
x = +2
Hence the oxidation state of Fe in product </span>Fe(CO)₄I₂ (s) is +2.
Same as we can find the oxidation state (y) of Fe in Fe(CO)₅(s).
y + 5*0 = 0
y = 0
Since oxidation state of Fe increased from 0 to +2, the oxidized element is Fe in the given reaction.
Answer:
Pseudoscience
Explanation:
"Astrology has not demonstrated its effectiveness in controlled studies and has no scientific validity, thus regarded as pseudoscience."
The complete question is shown in the image attached to this answer.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Let us quickly remember that the EMF of a cell under non standard conditions in given by the Nernst equation.
This equation states that;
E = E°cell - 0.592/n log Q
Where
E = EMF under non standard conditions
E°cell= standard EMF of the cell
n = number of electrons transferred
Q = reaction quotient
If the reaction quotient is greater than 1 then cell potential is less than the standard cell potential.
The cell that generates the lowest cell potential is the cell depicted in option C because Q has the greatest positive value(Q<1).
