Answer : The correct option is B (clay, slit, sand).
Explanation :
Soil particles are of three types : Sand, Slit and clay. Most of the soils particles are made up of a combination of sand, slit and clay.
Particle size range of the sand = 2.00 -0.05 mm
Particle size range of the slit = 0.05 -0.002 mm
Particle size range of the sand = less than 0.002 mm
Sand is the largest soil particle, clay is the smallest soil particle and slit particle is present in between the sand & clay particle.
Therefore, the order from smaller to larger sediment particles is
Clay > Slit > Sand
Answer:
The atom is oxidized is Ca.
Explanation:
- The oxidation-reduction reaction contains a reductant and an oxidant (oxidizing agent).
- The oxidation process is the process in which electrons are lost and produce positively charged ions.
- The reduction process is the process in which electrons is gained and negatively charge ions are produced.
- In the reaction of chlorine with calcium:
<em>Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂,</em>
Ca loses 2 electrons and is oxidized to Ca²⁺. (Ca <em>→</em> Ca²⁺ + 2e).
Cl is gains 2 electrons in "Cl₂, oxidation state zero" and is reduced to Cl⁻. (Cl₂ + 2e <em>→</em> 2Cl⁻).
