_________is a process in which o2 is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions
Kisachek [45]

Answer : The combustion is a process in which oxygen is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions.

Explanation :

Combustion reaction : It is defined as the reactions in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water.

The chemical equation of combustion reaction is:

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

The combustion reaction is also a redox reaction.

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

The combustion reaction is also a redox reaction in which the carbon shows oxidation by the addition of oxygen or removal of hydrogen and oxygen shows reduction by the addition of hydrogen or removal of oxygen.

Hence, the combustion is a process in which oxygen is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions.

Genrish500 [490]
Answer is: concentration of ammonium ions are 7,14·10⁻¹⁴ M.
Chemical reaction: 2NH₃(l) → NH₄⁺(am) + NH₂⁻(am).
Kam = 5,1·10⁻²⁷.
[NH₄⁺] · [NH₂⁻] = x; equilibrium concentration of cations and anions.
Kam = [NH₄⁺] · [NH₂⁻].
Kam = x².
x = [NH₄⁺] = √5,1·10⁻²⁷.
[NH₄⁺] = 7,14·10⁻¹⁴ M.

1. A student sees tiny bubbles clinging to the inside of an unopened plastic bottle full of carbonated soft drinks. The student
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

1) The bubbles will grow, and more may appear.

2)Can A will make a louder and stronger fizz than can B.

Explanation:

When you squeeze the sides of the bottle you increase the pressure pushing on the bubble, making it compress into a smaller space. This decrease in volume causes the bubble to increase in density. When the bubble increases in density, the bubble will grow and more bubbles will appear. Therefore, Changing the pressure (by squeezing the bottle) changes the volume of the bubbles. The number of bubbles doesn't change, just their size increases.

Carbonated drinks tend to lose their fizz at higher temperatures because the loss of carbon dioxide in liquids is increased as temperature is raised. This can be explained by the fact that when carbonated liquids are exposed to high temperatures, the solubility of gases in them is decreased. Hence the solubility of CO2 gas in can A at 32°C is less than the solubility of CO2 in can B at 8°C. Thus can A will tend to make a louder fizz more than can B.
