Select oxidation numbers for the metals in each of the following coordination compounds. (a)K[Au(OH)4] (b)Na4[Fe(Cl)6]

Chemistry

Oxana [17]1 year ago
6 0

a) K[Au(OH)₄], Au = +3

b) Na₄[Fe(Cl)₆], Fe = +2

<h3>What are the general rules to find oxidation number in a coordination compound?</h3>
  • All oxidation numbers in a neutral compound must equal zero.
  • All oxidation numbers in an ion must sum up to the ion's charge.
  • The oxidation number of a free element is zero.
  • Oxidation state of Hydrogen with non metals is +1.
  • Oxidation state of Hydrogen with metals is -1.
  • Oxidation state of Oxygen is -2 except Fluorine and peroxides.
  • Oxidation state of Fluorine is -1.

(a) K[Au(OH)₄]

Let the oxidation number of Au be X

(+1) + X + 4(-1) = 0

X + 1 - 4 = 0

X - 3 = 0

X = +3

(b) Na₄[Fe(Cl)₆]

Let the oxidation number of Fe be Y

4(+1) + Y + 6(-1) = 0

4 + Y - 6 = 0

Y - 2 = 0

Y = +2

Describe the relationship between hydrogen oxygen and water
True [87]
Hydrogen is composed of H atom and oxygen is composed of O atom. For water, it is composed by both H and O atom. If you burn hydrogen in oxygen, you can get water. And if you electrolysis water, you can get hydrogen and oxygen.

Explain the composition of dna nucleotides and the structure of the dna molecule need help
Kaylis [27]

A nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group, sugar, and nitrogen base. DNA is made of 2 strands of nucleotides linked together by covalent bonds between the phosphate and sugar of each nucleotide. The strands of nucleotides are linked together by hydrogen bonds creating DNA. Hope this helps and sorry if I made a mistake.

Laser fusion Group of answer choices uses chemical reactions to produce energy uses nuclear reactions to produce energy implodes
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Uses nuclear reactions to produce energy

Implodes a fuel pellet

Explanation:

Laser fusion is a method of initiating nuclear fusion reactions through heating, and compressing fuel pellets containing deuterium and tritium using high energy density laser beams. Lase fusion is also known as inertial confinement fusion and the energy produced by the process is known as Laser Inertial Fusion Energy, LIFE.

During the process of laser fusion, small pellets of deuterium-tritium (DT) isotopes mixture are fed into a blast chamber where they are compressed to high densities using a number of amplified laser beams in the chamber.

The high energy density of the beams as well as the heat produced due to compression, induces the thermonuclear explosion ignition resulting in the production of high energetic products such as charged particles, x-rays and neutrons. The energy produced is absorbed and stored as heat in a blanket that is then used in a steam thermal cycle to generate electrical power.

There are two methods of compression of the DT pellet: direct and indirect-drive laser fusions.

However, there are a number of limitations to energy production by this process. One limitation is that the process is extremely inefficient in energy energy production. Also, the heat produced by the flashtubes results innthe deformation of the laser glass.

A 0.15 m solution of chloroacetic acid has a ph of 1.86. What is the value of ka for this acid?
dem82 [27]

Answer: 1.67\times 10^{-3}

Explanation:

ClCH_2COOH\rightarrow ClCH_2COO^-+H^+

   cM              0             0

c-c\alpha        c\alpha          c\alpha  

So dissociation constant will be:

K_a=\frac{(c\alpha)^{2}}{c-c\alpha}

Given:  c = 0.15 M

pH = 1.86

K_a = ?

Putting in the values we get:

Also pH=-log[H^+]

1.86=-log[H^+]

[H^+]=0.01

[H^+]=c\times \alpha

0.01=0.15\times \alpha

\alpha=0.06

As [H^+]=[ClCH_2COO^-]=0.01

K_a=\frac{(0.01)^2}{(0.15-0.15\times 0.06)}

K_a=1.67\times 10^{-3]

Thus the vale of K_a for the acid is 1.67\times 10^{-3}
