Why ethanol gives haloform reaction?
ethanol gives haloform reaction because it is oxidized to acetaldehyde whose alpha carbon donates a hydrogen atom for the formation of haloform
How many unshared pairs of electrons are in hydrogen iodide?
Oxygen has six (6) valence electrons. In the formation of a water molecule, two (2) of the valence electrons forms a covalent bond with two other hydrogen atoms leaving the water molecule with 2 unshared pairs of electron.
How can you tell if an element has been reduced?
The reactant that reduces another atom
When sulfur and hydrogen react together one sulfur atom will combine with how many hydrogen atoms?
Two hydrogen atoms to form hydrogen sulphide (H2S) . It is the smell of rotten eggs.
Is hydrogen and oxygen a compound?
Hydrogen is an element. Oxygen is an element. Hydrogen reacts with Oxygen to form a compound which is called water and has the formula H2O. Hydrogen and Oxygen can also form another compound called Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)
When a glucose molecule loses a hydrogen atom as the result of an oxidation-reduction reaction the molecule becomes?
oxidized
Why ethanol gives haloform reaction?
ethanol gives haloform reaction because it is oxidized to acetaldehyde whose alpha carbon donates a hydrogen atom for the formation of haloform
Why is HI known as Hydrogen Iodide?
The chemical formula is one hydrogen atom and one iodine atom.
What is the reducing agent in redox reaction?
the reactant that has the atom that gets oxidized
What happens when a hydrogen atpm atom acts like a nonmetal in a chemical reaction?
When a hydrogen atom acts like a nonmetal in a chemical reaction, it gains an electron.
What is the result of an atom that gains or loses an electron?
This is called a redox reaction. An atom that loses an electron is oxidized and an atom that gains an electron is reduced.
What happens when atom of oxygen and hydrogen meet?
The product of the reaction is water.
What happens if an atom of uranium loses a proton?
Uranium minus a proton (hydrogen atom) is protactinium.? That is, if you could get it to do that - this is an unusual reaction.
Does an oxidizing agent become oxidized?
The term oxidation is named after oxygen, which is the most common oxidizing agent. Oxygen has a strong attraction for electrons, and in most chemical reactions it will take two electrons away from another atom (or from two atoms, such as in the case of the famous water molecule which is composed of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms). So when an atom loses one or more electrons, it is oxidized.
Which is a bigger atom chlorine or iodine?
Iodine
How many valance election does an iodine atom have?
An iodine atom has seven valence electrons.
Can fission take place in the nucleus of hydrogen atom?
No, it cannot. Fission is the "splitting" of an atom, and a hydrogen atom will not fission. Some hydrogen atoms have a neutron stuck to the proton in their nucleus. Some even have two neutrons stuck to that proton. These neutrons can be "knocked loose" in something like a nuclear chair reaction in a weapon. The neutrons then can contribute to the building of the nuclear chain reaction. But fission doesn't happen to hydrogen.
