Some animal studies showed that using diets including soluble fiber (oat bran) helped eliminate the C-diff infection sooner than a diet with insoluble fiber (wheat bran). Foods high in soluble fiber include: oats and oat bran, oatmeal, beans, peas, carrots, barley, citrus fruits, strawberries and apple pulp.
Similarly, it is easier for oxygen to gain 2 electrons instead of loosing 6 electrons: Oxygen Ion. The two gained electrons (purple dots) means that this oxygen ion has 10 electrons (-10 charge) and only 8 protons (+8 charge), giving the ion a net charge of -2. Symbolically, we can represent this oxygen ion as O -2.
+6 for each sulphur. +1 for each Na; Two oxygens are as peroxides and will have -1 charge / oxidation number each. Six oxygens are as oxides and will have -2 charge each. So, â¦ 2(+1) + 2y + 2(-1) + 6(-2) = 0 Or y = +6 (the charge / oxidation number of sulphur). 2 people found this useful.
