Hello, what’s the difference between oxidation and oxidising agents?

Answer:

An oxidising agent oxidises something else. Oxidation is loss of electrons (OIL RIG). That means that an oxidising agent takes electrons from that other substance.

Look at the following balanced equation. How many atoms of oxygen (O) are present on the reactant side of the equation?
balu736 [363]

There are 6 atoms of oxygen on the reactant side of the following equation: 2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2. Details about atoms can be found below.

<h3>How to find number of atoms?</h3>

The number of atoms of an element in a balanced equation is the amount of that element involved in the reaction.

According to this question, Iron oxide reacts with carbon to produce iron and carbon dioxide as follows:

2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2

In this reaction, 2 × 3 atoms = 6 atoms of oxygen are present on the reactant side of the equation.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

The correct statements that you must check are:

  • The oxygen atom has a greater attraction for electrons than the hydrogen atom does (second statement).

  • The electrons of the covalent bond are not shared equally between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms (fourth statement).

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the relative ability of an atom to pull the electrons in a covalent bond.

Hydrogen has an electronegativity of 2.20 and oxygen has 3.44. That means that oxygen attracts the electrons more strongly than hydrogen does (second statement).

As consequence, the electrons in the covalent bond H - O of water are not shared equally (fourth statement): the electron density will  be higher around the O atoms.

Of course, this discards the statement telling that hydrogen atom attracts electrons much more strongly than the oxygen atom, and the statement telling that hydrogen and oxigen have same electronegativity.

Such difference in electron densities creates a dipole moment, so you discard the last statement (that the water dipole moment is equal to zero).
