Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons. The oxidizing agent is reduced. The reducing agent is oxidized. Cu goes from 0 to +2, it lost electrons S went from +6 to +4, it gained electrons I went from 0 to +5, it lost electrons N went from +5 to +4, it gained electrons.
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell. Those are t<span>he electrons on an atom that can be gained or lost in a chemical reaction.
</span>Elements that are left on the periodic table <span> have relatively few </span>valence electrons<span>, and can form ions more easily by losing their </span>valence electrons<span> to form positively charged cations.</span>
<span>Nonmetals are further to the right on the periodic table, so they gain electrons relatively easily and lose them with difficulty. </span>
Answer:
B and D as well
Explanation:
All the electronic configuration of the elements of B end on s sub shell.
S energy level sub shell can hold 2 electrons and since Be, Mg, Ca Sr end in s.
We can say, they have same valence electrons, i.e 2 electrons.
Answer:
399
Explanation:
Pb(SO4)2 contains 1 atom of Pb, 2 atoms of S and 8 atoms of O. So, atomic mass of Pb(SO4)2 is 207 + 64 + 128 = 399 u. Therefore, molar mass of Pb(SO4)2 is 399 g/mol.HOPE THIS helps. Good Luck
