Answer:
The elements that are commonly positive ions are metals. But there are a few gases that can become positively charged by losing electrons.
Answer:
Explanation:
If one mole of carbon monoxide has a mass of 28.01 g and one mole of carbon dioxide has a mass of 44.01 g , it follows that the reaction produces 44.01 g of carbon dioxide for every 28.01 g of carbon monoxide.
Answer:
Explanation:
a. Oxidation : 2O + 4e^- ------> 2O^2-
b. Reduction: 2Sr - 4e- -------> Sr^2+
c. Balanced redox reaction
2Sr + O2 ------------> 2Sr O
Oxidation and reduction can be defined by various means, addition of oxygen, removal of hydrogen, removal of electrons. For this reaction, this definition is used, oxidation is the loss of electrons while reduction is the gaining of electrons.
In (a) oxidation half reaction, the valency of oxygen is zero and then moves into lossing two electrons resulting into -2 valency.
In (b) reduction half reaction, the valency of Sr is zero and gains electrons resulting into valency of 2.
In the overall redox reaction, Sr and O2 with valency of 0 each reacts together and form SrO with valency of 2 and -2 respectively, which gives 0 and then balances the equation.
