Explanation:
The sum of all oxidation numbers in a neutral compound is zero. The sum of all oxidation numbers in a polyatomic (many-atom) ion is equal to the charge on the ion. The oxidation number of oxygen in a compound is usually –2. The oxidation state of hydrogen in a compound is usually +1.
The oxidation state of Al in Al(OH)
4
−
x+4(+1−2)=−1
∴x=+3
The oxidation state of Mn in MnO
2
y+2(−2)=0
∴y=+4

Answer: option D - The total number of nucleons changes.
Explanation:
Nuclear Reaction is best described as a process such as the fission of an atomic nucleus, or the fusion of one or more atomic nuclei and / or subatomic particles in which the NUMBER of PROTONS and / or NEUTRONS in a nucleus CHANGES; the reaction products may contain a different element or a different isotope of the same element.
Note that the NUCLEONS refers to ONE of the subatomic particles of the atomic nucleus, i.e. a PROTON or a NEUTRON.
So, in a Nuclear reaction, the total number of nucleons changes.
<h2>Question</h2>
How does glue, borax, and water turn into slime, scientifically?
<h2>Answer</h2>
- It is the matter of time and Weather
The atomic number in an element is usually how many protons the element has. For example, Hydrogen has a 1 on top of the H (on the periodic table), therefore, Hydrogen has 1 proton. Oxygen has an 8 on top of the O (on the periodic table) so therefore, Oxygen has 8 protons.
