Answer:
D) Oxygen is oxidized and hydrogen is reduced.
Explanation:
In the electrolysis of water, an electric current passes through an electrolytic solution (e.g. aqueous NaCl), leading to the following redox reaction.
H₂O(l) → H₂(g) + 1/2 O₂(g)
The corresponding half-reactions are:
Reduction: 2 H₂O(l) + 2 e⁻ → H₂(g) + 2 OH⁻
Oxidation: 2 H₂O(l) → O₂(g) + 4 H⁺(aq) + 4 e⁻
As we can see, H in water is reduced (its oxidation number decreases from 1 to 0), while O in water is oxidized (its oxidation number increases from -2 to 0).
Answer:
Explanation:
Here, a balance between attraction between nucleus and electrons, and electron-electron, and nuclei-nuclei repulsion play role.
All chemical bonds are formed by overlapping of orbitals. If the electronegativity of the two elements forming the bond is very different (elements from the 1st ,2nd groups with elements of 7th group) then ionic bond are formed. If the electronegativities are more similar, then overlapping is stronger, and covalent bonds are formed.
Multiply velocity and time and you get 0.644 km, but remember that displacement has a direction and so does velocity, so because velocity is positive in the direction that the falcon is going you have a positive displacement.
The question is based on the Thermodynamic principle of Specific Heat Capacity. Now, Specific Heat Capacity refers to the amount of heat needed per unit mass t raise the temperature by one degree Celsius
The formula that can be used to find the answer is the following:
Q = C · m · ΔT ( where Q is the heat added/required; C is the specific heat capacity [4.186 joule/gram °C]; ΔT is the change in temperature)
Based on the question, what needs to be found is Q, and what is known is that C = 4.186 J/g °C; m = 15 g; ΔT = 10 °C
so, Q = C · m · ΔT
Q = (4.186 J/g °C) (15 g) (10 °C)
Q = 627.9 J
Thus, the number of <span>joules required to raise the temperature of 15.0 grams of water by 10 degrees Celsius is 627.9 J</span>
