Chemistry

Answer:

C) H2S

Explanation:

In chemistry, the dissolution of one substance in another is dependent on the magnitude of intermolecular interaction between the two substances.  Hence, if two substances do not interact in one way or the other, then one can not dissolve the other.

Let us consider the fact that NH3 is a polar molecule and it is a general principle that like dissolves like. Hence, only H2S which is also a polar molecule can effectively interact with  NH3 due to dipole-dipole interaction between the two molecules.

Also, ammonia reacts with hydrogen sulphide as follows;

2NH3 + H2S → (NH4)2S

Hence H2S is more likely to dissolve in NH3.

Why are silver, lead, and mercury so special? (why do they always precipitate out and never dissolve) PLEASE BE DETAILED BUT SIM
lara [203]
Silver and lead are special elements, where silver is insoluble in all halogen anions (like AgCl, AgI, AgBr)
and lead is insoluble in sulphates and halogen anions ( PbSO4, PbCl2, etc.)
Mercury is special because it is the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature
hope this helps!!

The reaction of iron with oxygen to form iron oxide is an example of an oxidation–reduction reaction: 4fe + 3o2 → 2fe2o3. in thi
nadya68 [22]

Answer:-

Oxygen gains electrons and is reduced.

Explanation:-

For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is

4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3

When Oxygen is present as oxygen gas, the oxidation number of O is Zero since it is the only element present in Oxygen gas.

Similarly Iron is present in Fe with oxidation number Zero.

In the case of Fe2O3, Oxygen has the oxidation number -2 while Iron has +3.

So the oxidation number of Oxygen goes from Zero to -2.

Since the oxidation number decreases Oxygen is reduced.

Since reduction involves gain of electrons, Oxygen gains electrons.
