Because they insulate either the heat or the coolness within the food item. But keep in mind- when it comes to electricity aluminum isn’t an insulator.
So you have evidence that the experiment is true or correct.
The element that gains electrons, becomes reduced.
While the one which loses electrons, becomes oxidized.
In this equation,
CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻---- --> CH₂O + Cr³⁺.
By balancing the equation, we will get:
3CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 8H⁺ --> 3CH₂O + 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O
Here the oxidation state of Cr changes from +6 to +3 that is it is being reduced thus serving as a oxidizing agent while other element retain their charges.
Here Cr₂O₇²⁻ is reduced while CH₃OH is oxidized.
So Cr₂O₇²⁻ serves as a oxidizing agent, while CH₃OH serves as reducing agent .
Answer:
it is easier for them to have an octet of electrons(8e)
Each ion will: obtain the noble gas structure, each atom has high ionization energy
