Answer:
X = Water (H2O) ; Y = Hydrogen ; Z = Oxygen
Explanation:
2(H2O) -------> 2H2 + O2
Answer:
A single compound is simultaneously oxidized and reduced.
Explanation:
In chemistry, disproportionation is a simultaneous oxidation and reduction of a single chemical specie.
What this means is that; in a disproportionation reaction, only one compound is both oxidized and reduced. This implies that two products are formed during disproportionation. One is the oxidized product while the other is the reduced product.
Consider the disproportionation of CuCl shown below;
2CuCl -----> CuCl2 + Cu
Here, CuCl2 is the oxidized product while Cu is the reduced product.
Answer:
The ancient Greeks believed in the four elements of air, earth, fire, and water. The Greek philosopher Empedocles is known for originating the theory of these classic four elements being the basis of all things.
Protons: charge +1, have a mass of 1 and are found in the nucleus
Neutrons: charge 0, have a mass of 1 and are found in the nucleus
Electrons: charge -1, have a mass of 1/840 and are found on the outside of the nucleus

Answer:
The work done and heat absorbed are both -8,1 kJ
Explanation:
The work done in an isobaric process is defined as:
W = -P (Vf - Vi)
Where P is pressure ( 10 atm)
Vf = 10 L
Vi = 2 L
Thus, <em>W = -80 atm×L ≡ -8,1 kJ</em>
This is the work done in expansion of the gas. As the gas remains at the same temperature, there is no change in internal energy doing that all work was absorbed as heat.
I hope it helps!
