Answer:
3
Explanation:
Subscript basically tells you the number of element or ions present in a compound. In this case the subscript of carbon which is 3 denotes that only three carbon atoms is present in the compound.
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When an acid or base is added to a solution then any resistance by the solution in changing the pH of the solution is known as a buffer.
This is because a buffer has the ability to not get affected by the addition of small amounts of an acid or a base. As a result, it helps in maintaining the pH of the solution.
In the give case, when we add the HCl then more number of protons will dissociate. This causes the acetate to react with the protons and leads to the formation of acetic acid.
We know that acetic acid is a weak acid and it dissociates partially or feebly. Therefore, no change in pH will take place.
Thus, we can conclude that equation
represents the chemical reaction that accounts for the fact that acid was added but there was no detectable change in pH.
Fixed vs Variable Oxidation is given below.
Explanation:
1.In its compounds, hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1, except. hydrides where the. oxidation number of hydrogen is -1. In their compounds, the metals with fixed oxidation states have the oxidation number that. corresponds with the fixed oxidation number.
A variable oxidation state is a value that determines the charge of the atom depending on certain conditions.
2. Oxidation state of elements is considered to be of the most important in the study of chemistry. For some elements, this figure is constant known as fixed oxidation , while for others it is variable is called variable oxidation state.
3. MgCl2 : magnesium is in Group IIA and all elements in Group IIA have fixed oxidation numbers of +2
FeCl2 : iron has a variable oxidation number of either +2 or +3 and is not fixed
Electrolysis can be used to separate a substance into its original components/elements and it was through this process that a number of elements have been discovered and are still produced in today's industry.
