-3*3+(+1)*12+(+5)+(-2)*4=-9+12+5-8 =0 -the sum of oxidation number in the molecule should be equal zero.

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

In a salt, we must take into account that the sum of the oxidation numbers is equal to zero since the molecule is stable.

In this case the molecule is a salt and is (NH4) 3PO4

N = -3

H = + 1 (there are four atoms in total is +4)

(NH4) 3 = (- 3 + 4) * 3 = + 3

P = + 5

O = -2 (since there are 4 atoms in total it is -8)

PO4 = + 5-8 = -3

The total is: -3 + 3 = 0

We verify that the charges give a total of zero, so that our calculation is well done.

In water, Vanillin, C8H8O3, has a solubility of 0.070 moles of vanillin per liter of solution at 25C. What will be produced if 5
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The full amount (5.00 g) will be dissolved in 1 L of water at 25°C.

Explanation:

The molecular weight (MW) of Vanillin (C₈H₈O₃) is calculated from the chemical formula as follows:

MW(C₈H₈O₃) = (12 g/mol x 8) + (1 g/mol x 8) + (16 g/mol x 3) = 152 g/mol

If 0.070 mol of C₈H₈O₃ are soluble per liter of water at 25°C, the maximum mass that can be dissolved in 1 L is:

0.070 mol x 152 g/mol = 10.64 g

Since 5.00 g is lesser than the maximum amount that can be dissolved (10.64 g), the added amount will be completely dissolved in 1 L of water at 25°C.

What is the pOH of a solution of HNO3 that has [OH-] = 9.50 10-9 M?
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The pOH of HNO₃ solution that ha OH⁻ concentration 9.50 ×10⁻⁹M is 8.

Explanation:

Given data:

[OH⁻] = 9.50 ×10⁻⁹M

pOH = ?

Solution:

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

Now we will put the value of OH⁻ concentration.

pOH = -log[9.50 ×10⁻⁹M]

pOH = 8

Thus the pOH of HNO₃ solution that ha OH⁻ concentration 9.50 ×10⁻⁹M is 8.
