“It can hold two electrons”
Answer:
2Fe(s) + 3O2(g) --------> 2FeO3(s)
Explanation:
According to the question, a battery was used to light the steel wool by bringing the terminals very close together. When the battery came into contact with the steel wool, current was sent out through the thin wire. This caused the iron to heat up quite well.
Iron reacts with oxygen under these conditions as follows;
2Fe(s) + 3O2(g) --------> 2FeO3(s)
This is the chemical reaction that occurs when the steel wool is set on fire.
1.hydrogen
2.carbon
3.argon
4.titanium
5.cesium
To find for the oxidizing agent, first let us write the
half reactions of this complete chemical reaction:
Ca = Ca2+ + 2e- <span>
2 H+ + 2e- = H2</span>
The oxidizing agent
would be the substance of the element that is reduced. We know that an element
is reduced when an electron is added to it. In this case, the element being
reduced is H. Therefore the oxidizing agent is HNO3.
Answer:
<span>HNO3</span>
