The balanced reaction is as follows;
BiCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ --> 2NaCl + BiSO₄
this is a double displacement reaction
the oxidation number of Bi is +2 in both BiCl₂ and BiSO₄
oxidation number of Cl is -1 in both BiCl₂ and NaCl
oxidation number of Na is +1 in both Na₂SO₄ and NaCl
oxidation numbers of elements in SO₄²⁻ remains the same in both compounds.Therefore the oxidation state in any of the elements in the reaction doesn't change. Neither of the elements show an increase or decrease in the oxidation numbers .
Answer for this question is no element decreases its oxidation number.
Atoms must have equal numbers of protons and electrons. So to answer your question, yes protons and electrons are the same number.
Answer:
Explanation:
Many elements have similar properties. This can be seen in how periodic table is arranged. The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior. All the members of a family of elements have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties.
For eg: Lithium, Sodium, and Potassium fall under group one in periodic table. These elements exhibit similar properties such as being extremely reactive.
There are some methods that differentiate waves; one thing is by its medium.
Electromagnetic waves did not require a medium for transmission such as in a
vacuum while mechanical waves require a medium to travel such as air, water or
anything that can serve as a transmission aid.
The most common sample of EM waves in
telecommunication is radio,
light and infra-red signals. An example of a mechanical wave is a sound
wave, which requires air to travel. Oscillating molecules made the
sound waves.
