Answer:Gained, Lost , Shared
Explanation:
The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has GAINED.................. , LOST....................... , or SHARED........................ , in forming a compound.
Oxidation state is defined as the the total number of electrons that an atom gains or loses when forming a chemical bond with another atom.
----To form an ionic bond for example in NaCl, Na, with 11 electrons and one valence electron in its outermost shell donates or lose that valence electron to Chlorine with 17 electron and 7 in its outermost shell. Therefore Sodium, Na acquires the +1 oxidaton state to become stable and Chlorine acquires the -1 oxidation state to become stable forming the NaCl compound.
To form a covalent compound, There must be sharing of electrons between atoms.For example, in PCl3, The phosphorous atom with atomic number 15 shares its three unpaired electrons with the single valence electrons of three chlorine atoms. making the four molecules to attain stability with Phosphorous having +3 and the chlorine atoms having -1 oxidation states
Answer:
1.The Aluminum block
2.its surroundings absorb energy from it.
Explanation:
In this question it is important to remember that density of an object is the mass of that object divided by its volume.
The expression applied here is density=mass/volume
Given that the mass is constant,lets say mass= m=1g
and density of aluminum=2.7g/cm³ and that of iron is 7.8 g/cm³ then volume=?
Volume=mass/density
Volume of aluminum= 1/2.7 =0.3704 cm³
Volume of iron = 1/7.8 =0.1282 cm³
Here we see volume of Aluminum block is the largest.
2.As water in an ice cube tray freezes, its surroundings absorb energy from it.When the water freezes, latent heat of freezing is given out to the surrounding.When water is freezing, it stays at a constant temperature of 0°C, the heat energy released ensures that there is no cooling past 0 °C.
Answer:
Molecules along the surface of a liquid behave differently than those in the bulk liquid.
Cohesive forces attract the molecules of the liquid to one another.
Water forming a droplet as it falls from a faucet is a primary example of surface tension.
Explanation:
Surface tension is the force that stretches the liquid surface. This force acts normal to the surface. It is the downward force that acts on the surface of the liquids which is due to the cohesive forces of the liquids.
The water molecules are bonded by a strong hydrogen bond force which is between hydrogen atom and the electronegative oxygen atom. At the surface the water molecules are attracted strongly by other water molecules which lies below the surface and are stretched at the surface. Thus the water molecules at the surface acts differently than in the bulk liquid.
Mercury have a strong cohesive force than the water and have a higher surface tension force than the water.
Surface water acquires minimum surface area, hence acquiring spherical shape of water.
Alloys are used much more than pure metals because they are generally stronger and less likely to react with air or water.
Answer:
Explanation:
are inversely proportional- the longer the wavelength the shorter the frequency.
