False, covalent bonds result when atoms share electrons.
Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is
.
Explanation:
A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.
In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in
is +2 and
has 0 oxidation state.
In
oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in
oxidation state of I is -1.
Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.
Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is
.
There are:
3.41 moles of C
4.54 moles of H
3.40 moles of O.
Why?
To solve the problem, the first thing that we need to do is to write the chemical formula of the ascorbic acid.

Now, we know that there are 100 grams of the compound, so, the masses of each element will represent the percent in the compound.
We have that:

To know the percent of each element, we need to to the following:

So, we know that for the 100 grams of the compound, there are:
40.92 grams of C
4.58 grams of H
54.49 grams of O
We know the molecular masses of each element:

Now, to calculate the number of moles of each element, we need to divide the mass of each element by the molecular mass of each element:

Hence, we have that there are 3.41 moles of C, 4.54 moles of H, and 3.40 moles of O.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
no.
Explanation:
The reason this has
never happened is due to the source of magnetic fields: moving electric
charges. When electric charges (e.g. electrons) move in circles, they
produce a magnetic field. In a piece of iron, it is very easy to line up
these circles, getting all the little magnets to work together as one big
magnet.
For each of these circles, one side is the north pole and one side is the
south pole. Since each circle has two sides, each circle has a north and a
south pole. Even the smallest possible magnets (spinning electrons) have a
north and a south pole.
