Answer:
B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we should understand oxidizing agents as those substances able to increase the oxidation state of another substance, therefore, in B. reaction we notice that copper oxidation state at the beginning is zero (no bonds are formed) and once it reacts with nitric acid, its oxidation states raises to +2 in copper (II) nitrate, thus, in B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2 nitritc acid is acting as the oxidizing agent.
Moreover, in the other reactions, copper (A.), sodium (C. and D.) remain with the same initial oxidation state, +2 and +1 respectively.
Regards.
When methane is burned with oxygen, the products are carbon dioxide and water. If you produce 9 grams of water and 11 grams of carbon dioxide from 16 grams of oxygen, how many grams of methane were needed for the reaction? First you need to write a balanced chemical equation.
primarily ionic include = sodium iodide( NaI) , calcium chloride ( CaCl2)
primarily covalent include - Ammonia (NH3) , Methane ( CH4) and
Glucose (C6H12O6)
Explanation
ionic bond is formed when there is complete transfer of electron between atoms. It occur between metal which donate electrons and a non metal which accept electrons.
for example in formation of CaCl2, ca donate 2 electron to 2 Cl atom, while 2 Cl atom accept the 2 electrons to form ionic bond.
Covalent bond is formed when two or more non metal form bond by sharing electrons pairs.
For example in NH3 3 pairs of electron are shared. to form covalent bond.
Answer:
The electron cloud
Explanation:
<em>Rutherford’s gold foil experiment</em> showed that the atom consisted of a tiny nucleus inside of a much larger electron cloud.
The diameter of the electron cloud is about 50 000 times that of the nucleus.
