Polar.
Polar bonds have unequal sharing electrons while nonpolar, the opposite, has equal sharing electrons. This is a tactic typically used to determine whether or not a compound or element itself is polar or nonpolar.
Hope this helps!
Explanation:
The Order of Reaction refers to the power dependence of the rate on the concentration of each reactant.
The overall order of reaction is the sum of the individual orders of reaction with respect to the reactants.
Rate = k [A]²[B]¹
In the rate law above, the rate is second order with respect to A and first order with respect to B. The overall order of reaction is a third order reaaction given as; 2+ 1 = 3
The smaller number is the number of protons, and the greater number is the mass.
Answer: Li is the reducing agentg and O is the oxidizing agent.
Explanation:
1) The oxidizing agent is the one that is reduced and the reducing agent is the one that is oxidized.
2) The given reaction is:
4Li(s) + O₂ (g) → 2 Li₂O(s)
3) Determine the oxidation states of each atom:
Li(s): oxidation state = 0 (since it is alone)
O₂ (g): oxidation state = 0 (since it is alone)
Li in Li₂O (s) +1
O in Li₂O -2
That because 2× (+1) - 2 = 0.
4) Determine the changes:
Li went from 0 to + 1, therefore it got oxidized and it is the reducing agent.
O went from 0 to - 2, therefore it got reduced and it is the oxidizing agent.
