What is the oxidation number of chromium in k2cr2o7

Chemistry

3 0

Answer:

  • <em>The oxidation state of chromium in K₂Cr₂O₇</em> is<u> 6⁺ (i.e. + 6).</u>

Explanation:

You can calculate the <em>oxidation number</em> of most elements following some simple rules.

This is how you do it for chromium in K₂Cr₂O₇.

1) Rule: in a neutral compound the net oxidation number is zero (0).

Hence, sum of the oxidation numbers of K, Cr and O in K₂Cr₂O₇ is 0.

2) Rule: The most common oxidation number of oxygen in compounds, except in peroxides, is  2 ⁻ (negative 2).

3) Rule: the most common oxidation state of alkali metals is 1⁺ (positive 1)

4) Rule: multiply each oxidation state by the corresponding number of atoms in the compound (the subscripts)

  • 2(1⁺) + 2(x) + 7(2⁻) = 0

          ↑         ↑       ↑

          K        Cr      O

  • 2 + 2x - 14 = 0

  • 2x - 12 = 0

  • 2x = 12

  • x = 6

Hence, the oxidation number of chromium in this compound is 6⁺.

How many grams of water are produced from 100 grams of oxygen?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

28,125 g

Explanation:

m(O₂) = 100 g

n(O₂) =M(O₂)/m(O₂)=32 gram per mole / 100 g = 0,32 mole

O₂ + 2H₂ ⇒ 2H₂O  ,  n(H₂O) = 2 × n(O₂)

m(H₂O) = M(H₂O)/2 × n(O₂) = 18 grams per mole / 2 × 0,32 mole = 28,125 g

A certain kind of light has a wavelength of 4.6 micrometers what is the frequency of this light and gigahertz? Use c= 2.998 × 10
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

6.52×10⁴ GHz

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Wavelength (λ) = 4.6 μm

Velocity of light (v) = 2.998×10⁸ m/s

Frequency (f) =?

Next we shall convert 4.6 μm to metre (m). This can be obtained as follow:

1 μm = 1×10¯⁶ m

Therefore,

4.6 μm = 4.6 μm × 1×10¯⁶ m / 1 μm

4.6 μm = 4.6×10¯⁶ m

Next, we shall determine frequency of the light. This can be obtained as follow:

Wavelength (λ) = 4.6×10¯⁶ m

Velocity of light (v) = 2.998×10⁸ m/s

Frequency (f) =?

v = λf

2.998×10⁸ = 4.6×10¯⁶ × f

Divide both side by 4.6×10¯⁶

f = 2.998×10⁸ / 4.6×10¯⁶

f = 6.52×10¹³ Hz

Finally, we shall convert 6.52×10¹³ Hz to gigahertz. This can be obtained as follow:

1 Hz = 1×10¯⁹ GHz

Therefore,

6.52×10¹³ Hz = 6.52×10¹³ Hz × 1×10¯⁹ GHz / 1Hz

6.52×10¹³ Hz = 6.52×10⁴ GHz

Thus, the frequency of the light is 6.52×10⁴ GHz

Positive Deviation from Raoult's Law occurs when the vapour pressure of component is greater than what is expected in Raoult's L
8090 [49]

Answer:

All of the above.

Explanation:

In positive deviation from Raoult's  Law occur when the vapour pressure of components is greater than what is expected value in Raoult's law.

When a solution is non ideal then it shows positive or negative deviation.

Let two solutions A and B to form non- ideal solutions.let the vapour pressure  of component A is P_A and vapour pressure of component B is P_B.

P^0_A= Vapour pressure of component A in pure form

P^0_B= Vapour pressure of component B in pure form

x_A=Mole fraction of component A

x_B==Mole fraction of component B

The interaction between A- B is less than the interaction A- A and B-B interaction.Therefore, the escaping tendency of liquid molecules in mixture is greater than the escaping tendency in pure form.Hence, the vapour pressure of a mixture is greater than the initial value of vapour pressure.

P_A >P^0_A\cdot x_A,P_B>P^0_B\cdot x_B

Therefore, P_A+P_B >P^0_A\cdot x_A+P^0_B \cdot x_B

Therefore, the enthalpy of mixing is greater than zero and change in volume is greater than zero.

Hence, option a,b,c and d are true.

vitfil [10]
The easiest way to approximate ph level is through the ph paper measurement system because using pH paper would be best for doing a quick measurement in the field. It does not essentially need to be calibrated or standardized and the papers make available an instant estimate.
