P2H2 Oxidation State - Diphosphene

P2H2 has an oxidation number of +1. In P2H2, the oxidation

number of H is -1

H2C2O4 Oxidation State - Oxalic Acid

C has an oxidation number of +3 in H2C2O4. O has an oxidation

number of -2 in H2C2O4. H2C2O4 has an oxidation number of +1.

CrO2 Oxidation State - Chromium(IV) Oxide

CrO2 has an oxidation number of +4.

<h3>Explain oxidation?</h3>

The oxidation state, also known as the oxidation number, is an atom's hypothetical charge if all of its bonds to other atoms were fully ionic.

The sum of the oxidation states of all the atoms in an ion equals the ion's charge.

A substance's more electronegative element is given a negative oxidation state. The one that is less electronegative is given a positive oxidation state.

use the heisenberg uncertainty principle to calculate the uncertainity in meters in the position of 0.68g and traveling at a vel

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

7.7439×10⁻³¹ m

Explanation:

The expression for Heisenberg uncertainty principle is:

$\Delta x\times \Delta v=\frac {h}{4\times \pi\times m}$

Where m is the mass of the microscopic particle

h is the Planks constant

Δx is the uncertainty in the position

Δv is the uncertainty in the velocity

Given:

mass = 0.68 g = 0.68×10⁻³ kg

Δv = 0.1 m/s

Δx= ?

Applying the above formula as:

$\Delta x\times 0.1=\frac {6.62\times 10^{-34}}{4\times \frac {22}{7}\times 0.68\times 10^{-3}}$

<u>Δx = 7.7439×10⁻³¹ m</u>

Which statement correctly describes an endothermic chemical reaction?

Natasha2012 [34]

An endothermic chemical reactions products tend to have a higher potential energy than the reactants. Thus making the /\ H positive, not negative.

What is the relation between concentration of reactants and the rate of chemical reaction?

Lynna [10]

Reaction rates can be increased if the concentration of reactants is raised. An increase in concentration produces more collisions. The chances of an effective collision goes up with the increase in concentration. The exact relationship between reaction rate and concentration depends on the reaction "mechanism".
