Which of the following statement about oxidation/reduction reactions is false? a. Rust is produced by oxidation/reduction reactions. b. Oxidation/reduction reactions involve the transfer of electrons from one element to another. c. Oxidation/reduction reactions can be catalyzed by microbial activity. d. Oxygen, chlorine and ozone are all oxidants. e. Oxidants are the elements that get oxidized or give up electrons in oxidation/reduction reactions.
The naturally occurring ozone and oxygen cycles are significant in sustaining the Earth\'s stratosphere. One series of reactions concerning formation and destruction of ozone by oxygen gas is represented by the Chapman cycle. Arrange the reactions in order according to the cycle. Ozone creation --> Ozone destruction O2 + hv --> 2 O O + O2 รขยย O3 + hv O + O3 --> 2 O2
