The fomula is NH4 (1+)
There are only two elements N and H.
As per oxidation state rules, the most electronegative element will have a negative oxidation state and the other element will have a positive oxidation state.
N is more electronative than H, so H will have a positive oxidation state and nitrogen will have a negative oxidation state.
You can also use the rule that states the hydrogen mostly has 1+ oxidation state,except when it is bonded to metals.
In conclusion the oxidation state of H in NH4 (1+) is 1+.
Now you must know that the sum of the oxidations states equals the charge of the ion, which in this case is 1+.
That implies that 4* (1+) + x = 1+
=> x = (1+) - 4(+) = 3-
Answer: the oxidation state of N is 3-, that is the option b.
Answer:A
Explanation:
The melting points of solids depend in the relative sizes of ions in the ionic lattice. The smaller the relative sizes of the ions, the higher the lattice energy and the stronger the lattice hence higher melting point. Comparing relative ionic sizes, fluoride ion is lesser in size than chloride ion hence NaF has a higher melting point than NaCl.
One of the pieces of evidence of the big bang theory where that celestial objects are scattered in the universe because of an explosion that supports the idea of the big bang.
<h3>What is the big bang?</h3>
The big bang is how astronomers explain the way the universe began.
The evidence that I've gathered from the widget that demonstrates that the universe is expanding is that galaxies and other celestial objects are moving away from each other, which is also one of the evidence of the big bang theory where the celestial objects are scattered in the universe because of an explosion that supports the idea of the big bang.

Answer:
The process is called Nitrogen fixation
Explanation:
The nitrogen fixation is a process carried out by some prokaryotic microorganisms (bacteria), specifically those have the presence of the nitrogenase enzyme. The bacteria absorb the atmospheric nitrogen (N2) from the roots of plants, and the nitrogenase enzyme, with the help of two proteins that act as electron donors and acceptors (nitrogenase complex) reduce the nitrogen to ammonia (NH3), then the ammonia is ionized to NH4+ (ammonium). Followed by that, the ammonia is oxidated to nitrates and nitrites, which are finally absorbed again by plants.
