Answer: I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.
Explanation:
An Oxidant is any substance that oxidizes, or receives electrons from, another; in so doing, it becomes reduced in oxidation number.
A Reductant thus exactly the opposite.
Note that the equation provided shows that Iodine (I2) received an electron to become NEGATIVELY CHARGED:
I2 --> 2I-.
The oxidation number reduced from 0 to -1.
In contrast, the oxidation number of 2S2O3(-2) increases from -4 to -2.
Thus, I2 is the Oxidant; while the 2S2O3(-2) is the reductant.
Answer:
16
Explanation:
Protons have a positive net charge,
Neutrons being neutral don't have a net charge.
Each proton is one extra net charge if you have 16 of them and the neutrons don't affect your net charge you will have 16.
Answer:
Electromotive force or e.m.f is defined as the battery's energy per Coulomb of charge passing through it. like other measures of energy per charge emf has SI unit of volts , equivalent to joules per coulomb.
Answer:
The law is observed in the given equation.
Explanation:
CaCO₃ + 2HCI → CaCI₂ +H₂O + CO₂
In order to find out if the law of conservative mass is followed, we need to <u>count how many atoms of each element are there in both sides of the equation</u>:
- Ca ⇒ 1 on the left, 1 on the right.
- C ⇒ 1 on the left, 1 on the right.
- O ⇒ 3 on the left, 3 on the right.
- H ⇒ 2 on the left, 2 on the right.
- Cl ⇒ 2 on the left, 2 on the right.
As the numbers for all elements involved are the same, the law is observed in the given equation.
