Answer:
Reduction
Explanation:
Reduction:
Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.
Mn⁺⁷ +3e⁻ → Mn⁴⁺
Mn gets three electrons , its oxidation state reduced from +7 to +4 so Mn gets reduced.
Examples:
Consider the following reactions.
4KI + 2CuCl₂ → 2CuI + I₂ + 4KCl
the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.
CO + H₂O → CO₂ + H₂
the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant side and on product side it becomes +4 so carbon get oxidized.
H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O
The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.
Answer:
it was Millikan. He conducted the oil drop experiment. Thomson determined the electon charge not the quantity. Rutherford used the gold foil experiment to find positive charge and that most of the atom is empty space. Dalton proposed that matter was made of small particles called atoms but that was a concept already proposed by ancient greeks. Dalton also proposed the atomic theory.
Answer:
A. K
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember the trends in the Periodic Table:
- Atomic radii <em>decrease</em> from left to right across a Period.
- Atomic radii <em>increase</em> from top to bottom in a Group.
- Ionic radii of metal cations are <em>smaller</em> than those of their atoms.
Thus, the largest atoms are in the lower left corner of the Periodic Table.
The diagram below shows that K is closest to the lower left, so it is the largest atom. It is also larger than any of the cations.
This is not chemistry but it's A, off top.
