Reduction <span>always results in a lowering of the oxidation number. The reaction of the system above is written as:
</span><span>Cu2+(aq) + Fe(s) --> Cu(s) + Fe2+(aq)
</span>
From the reaction, we see that copper goes from the +2 to a neutral charge. Lowering of the oxidation number happens so this is the element that is being reduced.
(a) The speed of light in the unknown substance is determined 1.82 x 10⁸ m/s.
(b) The light will bend away from the normal since speed of light in air is not equal to speed of light in the substance.
<h3>What is the speed of light?</h3>
The speed of light passing from air into the substance is calculated as follows;
refractive index = speed of light in air / speed of light in the substance
speed of light in the substance = speed of light in air/refractive index
speed of light in the substance = (3 x 10⁸) / (1.65)
speed of light in the substance = 1.82 x 10⁸ m/s
Thus, the light will bend away from the normal since speed of light in air is not equal to speed of light in the substance.

Answer:
70.77 g/mol is the molar mass of the unknown gas.
Explanation:
Effusion is defined as rate of change of volume with respect to time.
Rate of Effusion=
Effusion rate of oxygen gas after time t = 
Molar mass of oxygen gas = M = 32 g/mol
Effusion rate of unknown gas after time t = 
Molar mass of unknown gas = M'
The rate of diffusion of gas, we use Graham's Law.
This law states that the rate of effusion or diffusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. The equation given by this law follows:
M' = 70.77 g/mol
70.77 g/mol is the molar mass of the unknown gas.
