Answer:
C. Gain in electron(s) resulting in a decrease of oxidation number.
Explanation:
Redox reactions are reactions involving transfer of of electron between two species (reduction specie) and (oxidation species) and change resulting in change in oxidation number.
Reduction in terms of redox reaction is the specie that accepts electron(s) and gets "reduced" since its oxidation state has been reduced.
For example
Cl + e- → Cl⁻
The above reaction is an example of reduction reaction taking place in a redox reaction. We can see that Chlorine oxidation state was changed from (0) to (-1) state.
A. They are the most destructive earthquake waves.
D. They can move in a rolling pattern through rock, like an ocean wave.
Explanation:
Surface waves are seismic waves that cause the most destruction during an earthquake.
Rayleigh waves are known to cause rolling pattern of rocks just like an ocean waves.
- Seismic waves are elastic waves that notably transmits energy.
- They usually accompany earthquakes.
- There are two broad categories of these waves.
- Surface and body waves.
- Seismic surface waves are low frequency and long wavelength waves.
- They travel very close to the surface.
- They are made up of Love and Rayleigh waves.
- Love waves travels laterally in a horizontal fashion.
- Rayleigh waves rolls like ocean waves in the ground.
- The bulk of the destruction caused during an earthquakes is due to these waves.
- They are the last waves to arrive a seismic station

<span>No. Zn can only have oxidation states of 1+ or 2+. For this compound to be able to exist, the Zn would have to have an oxidation state of 2- to counteract the 2+ from the 2 sodium ions. Sodium ions each have a +1 charge, so the 2 sodium ions would carry a +2 charge. In order for the compound to exist, the net charge between the 2 sodium and 1 zinc atoms would need to be 0.</span>
