<u>Answer:</u> The oxidation state of iodine atom in the given compound is +5.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxidation state is the number that is assigned to an element when it gains or looses electrons. If an element gains electron, it will attain a negative oxidation state and if the element looses electrons, it will attain a positive oxidation state.

For the given chemical compound: Mg(IO_3)_2

We take the oxidation state of iodine atom be 'x'

Oxidation state of magnesium atom = +2

Oxidation state of oxygen atom = -2

Evaluating the oxidation state of iodine atom:

+2+2x+6(-2)=0\\\\x=+5

Hence, the oxidation state of iodine atom in the given compound is +5.

The oxidation number of iodine is 5 in Mg(IO3)2 which can be calculated as 
   Mg(IO3)2
   MgI2O6
As we know that
Mg has +2
O has -2
So,
   (+2) + 2I + 6 (-2)=0
   2 + 2I - 12 =0
   10+ 2I =0
    10 = 2I
     I =5

Answer:

0.800 mol of O2

Explanation:

<em>Calculate the moles of oxygen produced by the reaction of 0.800mol of carbon dioxide.</em>

The balanced equation for the reaction is given as;

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2  

From the reaction;

6 mol of CO2 produces 6 mol of O2

0.0800 mol of CO2 would produce x mol of O2

6 = 6

0.0800 = x

Solving for x;

x = 6 * 0.800 / 6

x = 0.800 mol

Yes. It is made from baking soda and shaving cream but shaving cream is a constant. You could use things like corn flour instead of baking soda.
