Asubstance is made up of slow-moving particles that have very little space between them. based on this information, what can most likely be concluded about this substance? it is not a gas because its particles do not move continuously. it is a gas because its particles move continuously in a straight line. it is not a gas because its particles do not have large spaces between them. it is a gas because its particles move in many different directions

Answer : Option C) It is not a gas because its particles do not have large spaces between them.

Explanation : According to the given information which states that the substance is made up of slow-moving particles which has very little space between them. It is definitely not gas as gas molecules will have large spaces between the particles/atoms. It cannot be a solid also, as in solids the particles are very closely and tightly packed so that there is negligible movement between them. It has high probability of being a liquid, as they would have slow moving particles with less space between the particles.

answer: - 3.) the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.

solution: - as per the rules, oxidation number of oxygen in its compounds is -2. the sum of oxidation numbers of all the elements of a molecule or compound is zero.

also, the oxidation number in elemental form is zero.

in no, the oxidation number of o is -2 so the oxidation number of n is +2 so that the sum is zero.

similarly, the oxidation number of c in co is +2 and o is -2.

on product side the oxidation number of n is 0 as it is in the elemental form() .

oxidation number of c in carbon dioxide is +4 as there are two oxygen in it and we know that each oxygen is -2.

so, oxidation number of n is changing from +2 to 0 and the oxidation number of c is changing from +2 to +4.

since nitrogen is reduced and hence no is acting as an oxidizing agent. carbon is oxidized and so co is acting as a reducing agent.

so, the right choice is number 3.)the oxidation state of nitrogen in no changes from +2 to 0, and the oxidation state of carbon in co changes from +2 to +4 as the reaction proceeds.
