Is oxygen a necessary reactant for oxidation reaction ​

Chemistry
1 answer:
storchak [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Oxidation: A process in which an atom loses an electron and therefore increases its oxidation number. ... So oxidation reactions need not involve oxygen. This redox reaction is actually the sum of two separate half-reactions (a reduction half-reaction and an oxidation half-reaction).

Explanation:

Hope this helped!

What is the total number of electrons in a<br> Mg2+ ion?(1) 10 (3) 14<br> (2) 12 (4) 24
Citrus2011 [14]
The answer is (1) 10. The protons of Mg atom is 12. So the Mg atom has 12 electrons. The Mg2+ ion has lost two electrons so it has two positive charge. Then the answer is 10 electrons.

Why must living things rely on thousands of catalysts for chemical reactions necessary for life?
Murrr4er [49]
Well, you don't need enzymes (biological catalysts) if you're willing to wait a century or two to digest a burger.

Without catalysts, complex reactions like digestion would take too long and the organism could not extract energy from the nutrients it eats in a practical time frame.

In addition, speed is everything in the biological world.

Some reactions and their speed relative to other organisms reactions determines who survives and who doesn't, among other aspects of life.

If a plant is slow to photosynthesize and grow in a habitat high in competition for sunlight real estate, other autotrophs will surely take over.

the symbol for xenon (xe) would be a part of the noble gas notation for the element antimony. cesium.
trapecia [35]

The symbol for xenon (xe) would be a part of the noble gas notation for the element cesium.

For writing the electronic configuration of any element by using the preceding noble gas configuration, we simply use the symbols of noble gas belongs to the previous period of that particular elements. We can't use the symbol of noble gas of same period from which the element belong.

A is the wrong option because the noble gas in the preceding period to the period from which antimony belongs is krypton.

The actual electronic configuration of antimony is as follow:

[Kr] 4d10 5s2 5p3

B is correct option because the noble gas in the preceding period to the period from which Cesium belongs is Xenon.

The actual electronic configuration of Cesium is as follow:

[Xe] 6s1

Thus, we concluded that the symbol for xenon (xe) would be a part of the noble gas notation for the element cesium.

What is the wavelength of radiation that has a frequency
White raven [17]

Answer:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

Explanation:

The wavelenght of  a radiation is inversely proportional to its frequency. It can be estimated by the following formula:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

Where:

  • \lambda is the wavelenght
  • \nu is the frequency
  • c is the speed of light (arroung 300000 km/s)
