CH3CH2MgBr is more soluble in diethyl ether .

We know that polar solvent dissolve in polar solvent very perfectly . as diethyl ether is a polar solvent so it have dipole -dipole interaction .

Hence the compound with similar interaction can dissolve in diethyl  ether .

Here , MgBr2  is an ionic compound . there is ion-ion interactions occurs which is not similar to dipole -dipole interaction in diethyl ether .hence the solubility of MgBr2 in diethyl ether is less .

but in case of CH3CH2MgBr there are both polar and nonpolar end .CH3CH2 is the nonpolar end and MgBr is the polar end .

thus with the nonpolar end solute interact using depression forces and with polar end solute interact using dipole-dipole interaction . so CH3CH2MgBr is more soluble .

What is the oxidation number of chromium in the ionic compound ammonium dichromate (nh4)2cr2o7?
lesya692 [45]
The oxidation number of an element is the number of electrons that are gained or lost by the element to form a chemical bond. 
the net oxidation number of the ion is its charge.
compound (NH₄)₂Cr₂O₇ is made of cation - NH₄⁺ and anion - Cr₂O₇²⁻
oxidation number of ion - -2
(oxidation number of Cr x 2 Cr atoms) +(oxidation number of O x 7 O atoms )= -2
oxidation number of Cr = y
oxidation number of O = -2
(y x 2) + (-2 x 7) = -2
2y - 14 = -2
2y = 12
y  = + 6
therefore oxidation number of Cr is +6

A disadvantage of sexual reproduction is that
sineoko [7]
The disadvantage of sexual reproduction is that outside influences can determine the viability of the offspring. In humans, for example, a failure for a mother to consume an adequate amount of folic acid is directly linked to neural tube birth defects. This defect occurs at the earliest stages of development, often when a woman doesn’t know she is pregnant, which means the folic acid must be consumed when attempting to conceive.
