Chemistry
1 answer:
Rina8888 [55]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Oxidation: a type of chemical reaction where one or more electrons are lost.

Oxidation State / Number: a number assigned to an atom describing its degree of oxidation, meaning how many electrons it has gained or lost.

Reduction: a type of chemical reaction where one or more electrons are gained.

Oxidation-Reduction Reaction: a chemical reaction where oxidation and reduction occurs simultaneously

Explanation:

Reduction always occurs at cathode

Oxidation always occurs in anode

These two process occurs in same way independent of nature of cell whether voltaic or electrolytic.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

According to the Environmental Paper Network's Paper Calculator, it takes about 32 million BTUs of energy to produce 1 ton of virgin paper fiber. To produce 1 ton of recycled paper, it takes about 22 million BTUs.

so the answer could be it takes less Btu to manufacture recycled products than new ones

Describe an experiment to show that water contains hydrogen and oxygen only​
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Electrolysis

Explanation:

The electrolysis of water is one such experiment that shows that water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen atoms only in the ratio of 2 to 1.

In the electrolysis of water, electricity is passed through acidified water to cause it to decompose.

The electrolysis of water is also known as the electrolysis of dilute tetraoxosulphate  (VI) acid.

At the cathode, H⁺ ions are discharged and hydrogen gas is liberated:

               2H⁺       +     2e⁻     →        H₂

At the anode, both the sulfate ion and hydroxyl ions migrate to this electrode. Only the OH⁻ is selected for preferential discharge due to its lower position in that activity series.

         4OH⁻  →   2H₂O    +    O₂     +     4e⁻

Oxygen gas is produced at the anode.

This electrolysis demonstrates the volumetric composition of water that is, 2 volumes of hydrogen at the cathode and 1 volume of oxygen at the anode.
