A gel is a type of colloid where the dispersed phase is a liquid and the dispersed medium is a solid. Cheese, butter, and jellies are classic examples of gels. Milk is an emulsion (liquid in liquid), while fog and smoke are aerosols.
Explanation:
Isoelectronic species have the same total number of electrons. Carbon monoxide (CO) has 6 (from C) + 8 (from O) = 14 electrons. Nitrogen molecule (N2) has 7 + 7 = 14 electrons. Therefore, N2 is isoelectronic with CO. O2 has 16, CO2 has 22, and NO has 15 electrons.
Explanation:
In Zn + 2HCl, Zn is oxidized (0 to +2) and H⁺ is reduced (+1 to 0). So it is a redox reaction. The other reactions are double displacement (A), combination without oxidation state change (B, D). Redox requires change in oxidation states.
