To find for the oxidizing agent, first let us write the
half reactions of this complete chemical reaction:
Ca = Ca2+ + 2e- <span>
2 H+ + 2e- = H2</span>
The oxidizing agent
would be the substance of the element that is reduced. We know that an element
is reduced when an electron is added to it. In this case, the element being
reduced is H. Therefore the oxidizing agent is HNO3.
Answer:
<span>HNO3</span>
1. carbon lies in the 2nd period where silicon in the third period.
2. carbon is a non metal whereas silicon is a metalloid.
3. there are only 3 isotopes of carbon and 23 isotopes of silicon
4. size of silicon atom is larger
5. silicon is heavier than carbon.
When dealing with making diluted solutions from concentrated solutions, we can use the following formula
c1v1 = c2v2
where c1 and v1 are the concentration and volume of the concentrated solution respectively.
c2 and v2 are the concentration and volume of the diluted solution respectively
substituting these values in the above formula,
20 mL x 0.200 M = C x 250.0 mL
C = 0.0160 M
Answer:
1
Explanation:
An unknown element, X, is a nonmetal that contains seven valence electrons. Element X most likely forms <u>1 </u>covalent bond.
Nonmetals gain the electron to complete the octet and form anion. Consider the example of halogen.
When it combine with another halogen atom they form covalent bond. There are seven valance electrons in outer most orbital of halogen atom. By combining with other halogen atom they form one covalent bond and complete the octet.
For example:
Cl atom combine with other Cl atom and form Cl₂.
