The process in which an atom or molecule loses one or more electrons to another atom or molecule is known as ________ .

Inga [223]

Answer:

Oxidation process

Explanation:

Oxidation is the transfer of electrons from an atom, molecule, or ion to another atom, molecule, or ion in a chemical reaction.

Oxidation is said to have taken place when the oxidation status of a atom, molecule, or ion is increases.

Oxidation process is said to include

Addition of oxygen atom or Electronegative atoms to another atom, molecule, or ion

Loss of one or more electrons by a atom, molecule, or ion

Increase in the oxidation number of a atom, molecule, or ion

Loss of a hydrogen or Electropositive atoms

Campare and Conteast Physical and chemical properties.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Physical properties are changes in color, weight, mass, density, volume, whether it is freezing, tarnishing, boiling, etc. while chemical properties are changes in the compound of the object such as whether an object is/isn't flammable, affected by acid, it dissolves, ferments, rots, ignites in water, etc.

Explanation:

Physical property examples: a piece of steel is cut in half, a sugar cube is ground up into a powder, ice melts into water, clouds form in the sky, you mow the lawn, the water turned purple when you dropped red and blue dye in it, leaves grow in the spring, ethyl alcohol boils at 79° C, you cut apples up

Chemical property examples: pancakes cook on the griddle, fireworks explode in th sky, Alka-Seltzer gives off carbon dioxide when added to water, roasting a marshmellow, milk sours when left on the counter, burning wood in a bonfire, salt dissolves in water, food is digested in the stomach

What are the formal charges on the sulfur (s), carbon (c), and nitrogen (n) atoms, respectively, in the resonance structure that

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Sulfur: -1

Carbon: 0

Nitrogen: 0

Explanation:

The thiocyanate ion SCN- can have only two resonance structures, which are:

S - C ≡ N <--------> S = C = N

In the first structure, we have one single bond and one triple bond, in this case, the negative charge is located in the sulfur. This is because Sulfur have 6 electrons and those electrons are present in the atom, (see picture below), and counting the electron that is sharing with the Carbon, the total electrons that sulfur has is 7 (It has one more than usual). Carbon and nitrogen are already stable with 0 of formal charge, because carbon can only have 4 electrons which 1 is sharing with sulfur and the other 3 with the nitrogen, and nitrogen have 5 electrons, three sharing with carbon and the other two kept it for itself.

In the second structure, the negative charge of the sulfur is transfered to the nitrogen, meaning that it has 6 electrons the nitrogen (formal charge -1) and carbon and sulfur with 4 and 6 electrons respectively.

Between these two structures, the most stable is the first one basically because Sulfur is a better nucleophile than the Nitrogen, and can form stronger hydrogen bond in acid, giving more stable structure.

Determine the value of the equilibrium constant, Kgoal, for the reaction CO2(g)⇌C(s)+O2(g), Kgoal=? by making use of the followi

marta [7]

Answer : The value of $K_{goal}$ for the final reaction is, $1.238\times 10^{-7}$

Explanation :

The following equilibrium reactions are :

(1) $2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightleftharpoons CH_3COOH(l)+2O_2$ $K_1=5.40\times 10^{-16}$

(2) $2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2H_2O(l)$ $K_2=1.06\times 10^{10}$

(3) $CH_3COOH(l)\rightleftharpoons 2C(s)+O_2(g)$ $K_3=2.68\times 10^{-9}$

The final equilibrium reaction is :

$CO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons C(s)+O_2(g)$ $K_{goal}=?$

Now we have to calculate the value of $K_{goal}$ for the final reaction.

First half the equation 1, 2 and 3 that means we are taking square root of equilibrium constant and then add all the equation 1, 2 and 3 that means we are multiplying all the equilibrium constant, we get the final equilibrium reaction and the expression of final equilibrium constant is:

$K_{goal}=\sqrt{K_1\times K_2\times K_3}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

$K_{goal}=\sqrt{(5.40\times 10^{-16})\times (1.06\times 10^{10})\times (2.68\times 10^{-9})}$

$K_{goal}=1.238\times 10^{-7}$

Therefore, the value of $K_{goal}$ for the final reaction is, $1.238\times 10^{-7}$

Chose the two factors that work together to create the global wind patterns that operate in the atmosphere.

grin007 [14]

Global wind patterns are mainly determined by unequal heating of the earth's surface, changes in air pressure, and earth's rotation. Change in air pressure: Air mainly circulates due to change in air pressure. It moves from a region of high air pressure to the region of lower air pressure.
