Answer:

The oxidation number are

NH₃: -3

HNO₃ : +5

NO₂ : +4

Explanation:

The oxidation number is calculated considering that

a) oxidation number of hydrogen is +1 in all compounds except hydrides

b) oxidation number of oxygen is -2 in all compound except peroxides, superoxides and compound of fluorine.

a) NH₃ : let the oxidation number of nitrogen is "x"

x + 3 (+1) = 0

Therefore x = -3

b) HNO₃

Let the oxidation number of nitrogen is "x"

+1 + x +3(-2) = 0

x = -5.

c) NO₂

Let oxidation number of nitrogen ix "x"

x + 2(-2)= 0

x = +4

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Hydrogen Bonding

Explanation:

Formaldehyde, H2CO, has an oxygen atom which is quite electronegative that means it would attract any atom with a slightly positive charge. Hydrogen in the Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is attracted by oxygen and hence hydrogen bonding can occur.

What is the chemical formula of the salt produced by the neutralization of potassium hydroxide with sulfuric acid?KSO3KSO4K(SO4)

kakasveta [241]

Answer: The salt produced will be $K_{2}SO_{4}$

Explanation:

During a neutralization reaction, an acid reacts with a base for producing the correspondent salt, and water.

The strong acids release all the protons avalaible when are dissolved, such as sulfuric acid. As you can see, sulfuric acid have 2 protons ready for being released ( $H_{2}SO_{4}$ ); and those places have to be occcupied for other ions equivalents to the H+: K+ from KOH in this case.

Therefore the answer will be $K_{2}SO_{4}$ .

How many 3-liter balloons could the 12-L helium tank pressurized to 160 atm fill? Keep in mind that an "exhausted" helium tank i

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The 12L helium tank pressurized to 160 atm will fill 636 3-liter balloons

Explanation:

It is possible to answer this question using Boyle's law:

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

Where P₁ is the pressure of the tank (160atm), V₁ is the volume of the tank (12L), P₂ is the pressure of the balloons (1atm, atmospheric pressure) And V₂ is the volume this gas will occupy at 1 atm, thus:

160atm×12L = 1atm×V₂

V₂ = 1920L

As the tank will never be empty, the volume of the gas able to fill balloons is the total volume minus 12L, thus the volume of helium able to fill balloons is:

1920L - 12L = 1908L

1908L will fill:

1908L× $\frac{1balloon}{3L}$ = 636 balloons

I hope it helps!
