Oxidation is a process when an atom, a group of atoms, or an ion loses electrons.
For example,
Cu⁰ -------> Cu⁺² + 2e⁻. This is an oxidation process.
As we can see an oxidation number was 0, and it became +2. The oxidation number is increased. Oxidation number of the atom, when an atom has undergone oxidation, increases.
So, answer is b.False.
Answer:
The correct answer is pOH= 11
Explanation:
From the aqueous acid-base equilibrium we know that
pH + pOH = 14
If we know pH, we can calculate pOH as follows:
pOH = 14 - pH
In this problem, the solution has a pH of 3, so:
pOH = 14 - 3 = 11
I had the same question last week and my answer was C. Try that.
