A cold front is the leading edge of a cooler mass of air, replacing at ground level a warmer mass of air, which lies within a fairly sharp surface trough of low pressure.
Increased density decreases the speed of sound in a medium. While increased density can mean increased rigidity, or stiffness, it is not always the case. Greater density can be due to each molecule or atom having more momentum, and being slower to respond to the vibration of its neighbor.
Answer:
The incorrect statement is: SO₂ gains electrons
Explanation:
A chemical reaction that involves the simultaneous transfer of electrons between two chemical species, is known as the redox reaction.
Given chemical reaction: 2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2SO₃(g)
In this redox reaction, S is present in +4 oxidation state in SO₂ and +6 oxidation state SO₃. Whereas, O is present in 0 oxidation state in O₂ and -2 oxidation state in SO₃.
<u>Therefore, SO₂ loses electrons and thus gets oxidized. Whereas, O₂ gains electrons and thus gets reduced. </u>
<u>In this reaction, SO₂ is the reducing agent and O₂ is the oxidizing agent.</u>
