From Avogadro we obtained a physical constant of matter which is Avogadro's number, and from both scientists we understand that elementary gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen were composed of two atoms.
<h3>What is Avogadro's number?</h3>
Avogadro's number, or Avogadro's constant, is the number of particles found in one mole of a substance.
The Avogadro's number is given as 6.02 x 10²³.
Summary of Josef Loschmidt and Amedeo Avogadro Contribution to chemistry.
- Equal volumes of gas contain equal numbers of molecules,
- Elementary gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen were composed of two atoms.
Thus, from Avogadro we obtained a physical constant of matter which is Avogadro's number, and from both scientists we understand that elementary gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen were composed of two atoms.

The bigger the atomic radius the easier it is to oxidise the atom. Remember that an atom is oxidized by the loss of an electron.
Explanation:
The bigger the atomic radius the further away the valence electron are from the attractive force of the atomic nucleus. This means that the energy required to remove an electron from the valence shell is easier compared to an atom with a smaller atomic radius. This is because you need to overcome the attractive force of the nucleus on the electron for you to oxidize the atom.

<span>Same answer, different setup. We know that the sum of the oxidation numbers is zero for a compound and the ionic charge for a polyatomic ion, and we know that sulfite ion is -2.
Create an algebraic equation by multiplying the subscripts times the oxidation number of a single element.
+x -6 = -2
+x -2
S O3
Solve for x
x = +4</span>
