The thing you MUST do FIRST is look for any H's, O's, or F's in the equation
1)any element just by itself not in a compound, their oxidation number is 0
ex: H2's oxidation number is 0
ex: Ag: oxidation number is 0 if its just something like Ag + BLA = LALA
2) the oxidation number of H is always +1, unless its just by itself (see #1)
3) the oxidation number of O is always -2, unless its just by itself (see #1)
4) the oxidation number of F is always -1, unless its just by itself (see#1)
ok so after you have written those oxidation numbers in rules 1-4 over each H, F, or O atom in the compound, you can look at the elements that we havent talked about yet
for example::::
N2O4
the oxidation number of O is -2.
since there are 4 O's, the charge is -8. now remember that N2O4 has to be neutral so the N2 must have a charge of +8
+8 divided by 2 = +4
N has an oxidation number of +4.
more rules:
5) the sum of oxidation numbers in a compound add up to 0 (when multiplied by the subscripts!!!) (see above example)
6) the sum of oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is the charge (for example, PO4 has a charge of (-3) so
oxidation # of O = -2. (there are 4 O's = -8 charge on that side ) P must have an oxidation number of 5. (-8+5= -3), and -3 is the total charge of the polyatomic ion
Answer:
91.7°C
Explanation:
We suppose you have a formula to work from. However, that is not supplied with this problem statement, so we looked one up.
The formula in the attachment is supposed to have good accuracy in the temperature range of interest. It gives vapor pressure of water in kPa, not mmHg, so we needed the conversion for that, too.
560 mmHg corresponds to about 74.66 kPa. The attached "Buck equation" formula is used to find the corresponding temperature. The exponential equation could be solved algebraically using logarithms and the quadratic formula, but we choose to find the solution graphically.
Water boils at about 91.7 °C on Mt. Whitney.
Answer:
0.01185M = moles/0.02755L
0.02755*0.01185=0.00032647
Explanation:
Answer:
0.1M NH3
Explanation:
The boiling point of aqueous solutions depend on the nature of intermolecular interactions present. KBr will yield an ionic solution but NH3 will yield a molecular solution having hydrogen bonds. The degree of hydrogen bonding in the aqueous solution will further increase with the concentration of the solution.
Remember that experimental data shows that hydrogen bonds are strong bonds that lead to a significant increase in the boiling point of solutions. Hence 0.1M NH3 solution will have a higher boiling point due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the solution.
