What are reactant substances?
reactant substances usually come from groups 1 and 7 on the periodic table as it is easy to gain or lose 1 electron
What is the oxidation state of Li in reactant?
The oxidation state of Li in its elemental form (Li) is 0 because it is in its pure state and not involved in a chemical reaction where it would gain or lose electrons.
How can you justify that a reaction between magnesium and oxygen is a redox reaction whioe the reaction shows only addition of oxygen?
In any redox reaction, at least one reactant is reduced and at least one reactant is oxidized. In the reaction between magnesium and oxygen, the magnesium atoms are oxidized because they lose electrons and the oxygen atoms are reduced because they gain electrons. Furthermore, the premise of the question is erroneous: The reaction does not as alleged show only addition of oxygen; instead it shows combination of magnesium and oxygen to form a new chemical entity, the compound magnesium oxide.
An element that has a tendency to lose elements in a chemical reaction is called?
cation
What do valence electrons in metals do?
Metals lose electrons in a chemical reaction.
HOW IS A pure element such as aluminum different than a substance made from this element and one or more other elements?
If it's combined with other elements in a chemical reaction aluminum would lose all it's properties and would have new properties
Is mixing bleach and red food coloring a physical or chemical change?
chemical !!! obviously.......
What is different about atoms after a redox reaction has happened?
Their oxidation states have changed
What happens when a chemical union occurs?
When a chemical union occurs, atoms or molecules combine to form a new substance with different properties than the original materials. This process involves the rearrangement of atoms to create new chemical bonds, resulting in the formation of a new compound. Energy may be released or absorbed during the reaction, depending on the specific chemical bonds being formed or broken.
Why is ionization energy important when discussing metal behavior in a chemical reaction?
Ionization energy is important when discussing metal behavior in a chemical reaction because it determines how easily metal atoms can lose electrons to form positive ions. Metals with low ionization energies tend to readily lose electrons and exhibit metallic behavior, such as conducting electricity and thermal energy. Metals with high ionization energies are less likely to lose electrons and may exhibit nonmetallic properties.
Do acids lose or gain hydrogen ions?
Acids lose hydrogen ions when they donate them in a chemical reaction, making them stronger acids.
What chemical reaction with other substances is called oxidation?
A reaction witrh oxygen is called oxidation. Generally oxidation involve lose of electrons.
