What is the oxidation state of an individual sulfur atom in so42−?

Chemistry
1 answer:
hichkok12 [17]3 years ago
4 0

The oxidation state of single oxygen atom is -2 since it is more electronegative and like to gain electrons.

The sum of the oxidation states of each atom = charge of compound

Let’s say the oxidation state of Sulfur is x.

Hence,

<span>      x +4 * (-2) = -2</span>

<span>      x – 8         = -2</span>

<span>                  x   = +6</span>

<span>The oxidation state of individual Sulfur atom is +6</span>

Sea water contains roughly 158.0g of Nacl per liter. What is the molarity of sodium chloride in sea water?
IrinaK [193]
Molar mass NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

C = 158.0 g/L

Molarity =  C / molar mass

M = 158.0 / 58.5

M = 2.7000 M

hope this helps!

8. Bring the balloon in contact with the wall. What happens to the charges in the wall?
Ne4ueva [31]

When the charged balloon is brought near the wall, it repels some of the negatively charged electrons in that part of the wall. Therefore, that part of the wall is left repelled.

<u>Explanation</u>:  

  • Balloons don't stick to walls. However, if you rub the balloon on an appropriate piece of material such as clothing or a wall, electrons are pulled from the other material to the balloon.
  • The balloon now as more electrons than normal and therefore has an overall negative charge. Two balloons like this will repel each other.
  • The other material now has an overall positive charge. Because opposite charges attract, the balloon will now appear to stick to the other material. If you didn't rub the balloon first, it's charge would be neutral and it wouldn't stick to the wall.

Identify the following reaction as oxidation and reduction F2(g)+2e-/2F-(aq)​
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Reduction

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

In given reaction fluorine gas gain two electron and form fluoride ions.

F₂(g) + 2e⁻    →   2F⁻(aq)

The given reaction is reduction because oxidation state is decreased from zero to -1.

43. A stock glucose standard has a concentration of 1,000 mg/dL. A 1/5 dilution of this standard is made. What would be the fina
Nat2105 [25]

The final concentration of the diluted standard is 0.2 mg/dL.

<h3 /><h3>What is concentration of glucose standard after 1/5 solution?</h3>

Using the dilution formula:

  • C1V1 = C2V2

where

  • C1 is initial concentration
  • V1 initial volume
  • C2 is final concentration
  • V2 is final volume.

Assuming a final volume of 100 mL, and since a 1/5 dilution is made:

C1 = 1.00 mg/dL

V1 = 20

C2 = ?

V2 = 100 mL

C2 = C1V1/V2

C2 = 20 × 1/100

C2 = 0.2 mg/dL

Therefore, the final concentration of the diluted standard is 0.2 mg/dL.
