Answer:
1. Zn is oxidize.
Cu is reduced.
2. Fe is oxidize.
H2 is reduced.
Explanation:
1. Zn(s)+Cu2+(aq)→Zn2+(aq)+Cu(s)
From the equation,
Zn changes oxidation number from 0 to +2. Therefore Zn is oxidized.
Cu2+ changes oxidation number from +2 to 0. Therefore, Cu2+ is reduced
2. 3Fe(s)+4H2O(g)→Fe2O3(s)+4H2(g)
From the equation,
Fe changes oxidation number from 0 to +3. Therefore, Fe is oxidized.
H changes oxidation number from +1 to 0. Therefore, H is reduced
Answer:
There is an overall release of energy when bonds form.
Explanation:
There is a general release of energy when bonds form. This energy is called bond energy.
Bond energy is involved in the breakdown or formation of one or more bonds between atoms of a molecule. Atoms bond with each other to achieve their electronic stability, that is, they move from a higher energy situation to a lower energy one. With this we can state that when the bond between atoms is formed, energy is released; therefore, its breakdown depends on energy absorption.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above would be the first option. The angle between the hydrogen atoms in water (H2O) is slightly less than expected for a tetrahedral shape. This is because of the extra electron repulsion from the lone pairs. Hope this helps.
Sand and water can be separated by any of the following methods:
1. Sedimentation and decantation: This method involves the mixture being kept undisturbed for some time. After some time, sand being heavier and insoluble in water, settles down at the bottom of container. Now, water is poured into another container to separate it from sand.
2. Filtration: This method involves the mixture being passed through a filter paper (a filter with very fine pores). Sand particles being larger in size are retained by the filter paper and get separated from water.
I hope this helps! :D
