C) Electrons are given off, so the oxidation number increases.

I know because I took the test in Time4Learning and got a 100. :)

Oxidation is when the overall charge (or oxidation number) increases.  The only way to increase an oxidation number is to lose an electron, thereby making the negative charges less.  The correct answer is C.

If I have 0.275 moles of gas at a temperature of 75 K and a pressure of 1530 mmHg, what is the volume of the gas?
Maru [420]

Answer: The volume of the gas is 0.84 Liters

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1530 mm Hg = 2.01 atm     (760mmHg=1atm)

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles = 0.275

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =75K

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

V=\frac{0.275atm\times 0.0820 Latm/K mol\times 75K}{2.01atm}=0.84L

Thus the volume of the gas is 0.84 Liters

Explain how boiling and evaporating are alike and how they are differant
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The main difference between evaporation and boiling are : 1. Evaporation takes place at all temperatures, while boiling occurs at a particular temperature. 2. Evaporation takes place from the surface, whereas the entire liquid boils. 3. Evaporation can occur using the internal energy of the system, while boiling requires an external source of heat.

What is the second most abundant element in stars? A. helium B. iron C. hydrogen D. oxygen
devlian [24]
<span>The </span>abundance of a chemical element<span> is a measure of the </span>occurrence<span> of the </span>element<span> relative to all other elements in a given environment. Abundance is measured in one of three ways: by the </span>mass-fraction<span> (the same as weight fraction); by the </span>mole-fraction<span> (fraction of atoms by numerical count, or sometimes fraction of molecules in gases); or by the </span>volume-fraction<span>. Volume-fraction is a common abundance measure in mixed gases such as planetary atmospheres, and is similar in value to molecular mole-fraction for gas mixtures at relatively low densities and pressures, and </span>ideal gas<span> mixtures. Most abundance values in this article are given as mass-fractions.
