<h2>In the name, iron(III) oxide, the (III) represents: D) the electrical charge of iron</h2><h2>
Explanation:</h2>
To attain stability the chemical bond is formed .
Chemical bond
It is a kind of linkage that binds one atom with the other .
The atoms do so in order to attain stable noble gas configuration .
To form chemical bond they either:
Loose electrons : when atoms loose electrons they acquire positive charge which is equal to the number of electrons lost .
Gain electrons: After gaining electrons they acquire negative charge which is equal to the number of electrons gained by an atom.
share electrons : With sharing no charges are develop .
<em>In the above asked question when iron combines with oxygen it forms iron oxide : where iron looses 3 electrons and oxygen gains 2 electrons .That is the reason ,III here represents the electrical charge of iron</em>
Explanation:
The two half equations are;
3e + HNO3 → NO
S→ H2SO4 + 6e
When balancing half equations, we have to make sure the number of electrons gained is equal to the number of electrons lost.
<em>Which factor will you use for the top equation?</em>
We multiply by 2 to make the number of electrons = 6e
<em>Which factor will you use for the bottom equation?</em>
We multiply by 1 to make the number of electrons = 6e
The correct answer is - A) The major constituents of air are gaseous elements.
With the statement ''the major constituents of air are gaseous elements'' we can easily conclude that the air is a mixture. The reason for that is that we have a plural usage of the word element, elements, which mean that there are multiple elements that make up the air.
The air is indeed predominantly a mixture of gaseous elements. The most abundant gas in the air being the nitrogen with 78.9%, oxygen with 20.95%, argon 0.93%, and carbon dioxide 0.04%, with lesser amounts of other gases also be present in it. The water vapor is also present in the air, though it is variable, being around 1% at sea level, but only 0.4% over the entire atmosphere.
