If I have a +2 oxidation number do I give up or accept electrons?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
sveticcg [70]3 years ago

Answer:

Give up 2 electrons.

Explanation:

Is this ever a good question!!!

Electrons have a minus charge

Protons have a plus charge.

You need to understand it thoroughly.  I used to explain it this way.

Suppose the protons and electrons are playing a game and the electrons commit a foul that leaves them with 2 men short.

That means there are 2 unguarded plus's around. The result is that the minuses have lost two men who are in the sin bin. (I watch a lot of hockey).

So a +2 means that the electrons have lost two of their players to penalties.

Put in the vocabulary of your question, you give up 2 electrons.

What are the controlled variables for water of crystallization experiment?
yarga [219]

Given what we know, we can confirm that as with any experiment, the control variable will be the one that through each trial of the experiment, no matter how many times it is performed, stays constant.

<h3>What is a controlled variable?</h3>
  • A variable that remains constant through an experiment.
  • They are used to compare results to the normal condition.
  • They are also used to isolate the changes to one factor at a time and thus know its exact effects on the outcome.
  • This increases the accuracy of the data and the subsequent conclusion.

Therefore, we can confirm that if a variable stays constant through each phase and trial of an experiment, it is considered to be a controlled variable and is useful in order to increase the accuracy of the conclusion.

1. Based on the observed performance of the air bag models and the amounts of sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid (vinegar) neede
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid are not good substitute for sodium azide in airbags since the require more mass and produce less gas.

<h3>Which is the better chemical for an airbag?</h3>

The chemical equation for the production of nitrogen gas from sodium azide is given below:

  • NaN₃ → 2 Na + 3 N₂

1 mole or 66 go of sodium azide produces 3 moles or 67.2 L of nitrogen gas.

The equation for the production of carbon dioxide from sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid is given below:

  • Na₂CO₃ + CH₃COOH → CH₃COONa + CO₂ + H₂O

1 mole, 106 g of Na₂CO₃ and 1 mole, 82 g of CH₃COOH are required to produce 1 mole or 22.4 L of CO₂.

The mass of sodium azide required is less than that of sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid required. Also, sodium azide produces a greater volume of gas. Therefore, sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid are not good substitute for sodium azide in airbags.

In conclusion, sodium azide is a better choice in airbags.
