The bond between the 2 Cl atoms in a Cl₂ molecule is a covalent bond.
to break this covalent bond, energy is required.
when new bonds form, energy is released as the bond formation makes the molecule stable. molecules with low energy levels are usually stable.
To break the covalent bond, energy is required in other words energy is absorbed.
therefore to break the covalent bond in Cl₂ molecule
1)energy is absorbed
Answer:
the answer is v and z. you can see the pic
Answer: the second option: <span>Iron is being oxidized
</span>
Explanation:
1) Oxidation is the increase of the oxidation state (number) due to the loss of electrons.
2) In the given reaction, you can see that in the left side the atom is Fe.
When an element (atom) is not combined (or combined with it self) its oxidation state is 0.
3) In the right side of the given equation you that iron is now in form of cation with charge 2+: Fe²⁺.
That means that the new oxidation state of the element is 2+.
4) This change in the oxidation state, of course, is accompanied by the loss of the two electrons: 2e⁻.
5) Conclusion: the iron has oxidized by losing two electrons and increasing its oxidation state from 0 to 2+.

Answer:</h3>
True, the reaction given is an example of a synthesis reaction
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- Synthesis reactions are reactions where two or more substances combine to form a single compound.
- The reaction 2NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g) is an example of a synthesis reaction.
Other types of chemical reactions may include;
- Decomposition reaction in which a compound is broken down into smaller compounds or individual elements.
- Replacement reaction where reactive elements replace other less reactive elements in their salts.
- Precipitation reactions in which soluble salts reacts to form a precipitate and a soluble salt as a result of exchange of anions and cations.
