Chemistry Questions

Voltmeter is used to measure Standard Electrode Potential

The two main components of air are nitrogen and oxygen. They are seperated by the fractional distillation of liquid air. Liquefied air contains liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen. Liquid nitrogen with the lower boiling point more readily evaporates than the less volatile liquid oxygen. 

In this chemical reaction chlorine change oxidation number from 0 to -1 (reduction) and bromine change oxidation number from -1 to 0 (oxidation).

Chlorine is stronger oxidation reagent than bromine.

In VIIA or group 17 (halogen elements) there are six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At) and tennessin(Ts).

They have high electronegativity because they have seven valence electrons in their outermost energy level, so they can gain an electron to have the octet rule.  

Going down in the group, element are weaker oxidazing reagent and less reactive.

Lithium is the lightest of all the metals due to its low atomic number among metals. It is the lightest solid element.

Properties ::

* It is a soft silvery-white alkali metal.

* Lithium is highly reactive and flammable and is stored in mineral oil.

mercaptans (or thioalcohols) have a foul odour
