Answer:
The freezing of water into ice causes the cracks to widen because it occupy more space.
Explanation:
When the water change its state of liquid to solid state due to decrease in temperature, it contracts means occupy less space but when the temperature reaches to 4 degree Celsius, it starts to expand. When the temperature goes below 0 degree Celsius, it will cause more expansion and occupy more space that causes the cracks to widen.
Answer:
Option-C, <u>STEEL</u> <span>is not a product of the fractional distillation of petroleum.
Explanation:
Petroleum is the mixture of Hydrocarbons *carbon and hydrogen containing compounds) present beneath the Earth's surface. Petroleum is formed from the remains of animals and plants beneath earth's surface in an anaerobic conditions.
Petroleum contains from small hydrocarbons (gases) to medium (liquids) and long chain hydrocarbons (Solids). These hydrocarbons are separated from each other by Fractional Distillation method (separation due to difference in boiling points)
Gasoline is a derivative of one of the fraction of petroleum used in internal combustion engines.
Jet Fuel is also derived from Kerosene and Naphtha fractions of petroleum.
While, Steel is inorganic Alloy (mixture of metals) composed of mainly Iron, Carbon and other elements.</span>
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.
The statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte, which is option C.
<h3>What is an ionic compound?</h3>
Ionic compound is any compound is a chemical compound composed of ions (charged atoms) held together by electrostatic forces termed ionic bonding.
Ionic compounds are electrolytes i.e. a substance when, in solution or when molten, ionizes and conducts electricity.
For example; sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound breaks down into sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ion (Cl-).
Therefore, the statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte.
