The oxidation state of a substance is the electric charge it is exhibiting in a given state. This may be determined by looking at the oxidation states of accompanying atoms as well as the charge on the complete molecule.

In this case:

Molecular charge: 0
Oxidation state of oxygen: -2 (it is a group 6 element)

Thus,

S + 3 * -2 = 0
S = 6

Sulfur is exhibiting an oxidation state of +6.

Would you predict that the C−O bond lengths in the formate ion would be longer or shorter relative to those in CO2?
ivolga24 [154]
The Lewis structures for formate ion and carbon dioxide are shown in the attached pictures. As you can see, the formate ion consists of one C=O bond and one C-O bond, while carbon dioxide has two C=O bonds. Double bonds are weaker, hence, longer compared to single bonds. Therefore, the C-O bonds in the formate ion is shorter than those in carbon dioxide.

Blood serum is typically about 0.0044 M in K+ (aq). Calculate the mass of the potassium ions in 4,459. mL of blood serum. The mo
12345 [234]

Answer:

0.767 g.

Explanation:

Molarity (M) is defined as the no. of moles of solute dissolved in a 1.0 L of the solution.

M = (no. of moles of K⁺)/(Volume of the solution (L).

<em>∵ no. of moles of K⁺ = (mass/molar mass) of K⁺.</em>

<em>∴ M = (mass/molar mass) of K⁺/(Volume of the solution (L).</em>

<em></em>

M = 0.0044 M.

Volume of the solution = 4459.0 mL = 4.459 L.

mass of K⁺ = ??? g.

molar mass of K⁺ = 39.01 g/mol.

∴ mass of K⁺ = (M)((molar mass of K⁺)(volume of the solution (L)) = (0.0044 M)(39.10 g/mol)(4.459 L) = 0.767 g.
