Cl2(s); oxidation number 1 is the incorrect choices in oxidation number.
Explanation:
In the elemental form oxidation state is zero. Here chlorine is present in elemental form so oxidation state is zero.
Oxidation number depends on the number of electrons gained or lost by an atom of the element say in compound formation.
If electron is gained oxidation number becomes negative.
If electron is lost then oxidation number is positive.
If the octet rule is fulfilled that valence shell is filled them atomic number gets zero. Since Cl2 is in neutral state the oxidation number is 0.
Oxidation number in general can be made out by checking the valency of the element as oxidation number is also equal to the valency.
Answer:
K+
Explanation:
Potassium(an alkali metal) belongs to element in group 1 and period 4 in the periodic table. It has to release one electron to attain noble configuration.
Which of these what?
This isn't clear, can you put the answer choice or something?
Answer:
The correct option is D
Explanation:
Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.
