Chlorine forms hypochlorous acid (HOCl) which is a strong oxidizing agent that destroys bacteria and viruses. It does not remove particles (filtration does) or dissolved salts.
Explanation:
Silver bromide (AgBr) decomposes on exposure to light (photochemical decomposition) forming silver and bromine: 2AgBr(s) → 2Ag(s) + Br₂(g). This is used in photographic films to capture images. AgCl also light-sensitive but AgBr is primarily used. Calcium carbonate decomposition is thermal. Water electrolysis is electric decomposition.
Explanation:
One carbon atom with four hydrogens is methane (CH₄). Ethane is C₂H₆, propane C₃H₈. Methanol is CH₃OH (alcohol). Methane is the simplest alkane.
Explanation:
Cathode is where reduction takes place (gain of electrons). In electrolytic cells, cathode is negative (connected to negative terminal of battery). Cations migrate to cathode and are reduced.
