Which rule for assigning oxidation numbers is correct?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Licemer1 [7]3 years ago

<em>Oxygen with an oxidation number -2 is the correct oxidation number</em>

<h3><em>Further explanation</em></h3>

The formula for determining Oxidation Numbers in general:

  • 1. The number of oxidation of single element atoms = 0. Examples of Ar, Mg, Cu, Fe, N₂, O₂, etc. = 0

Group IA (Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, and Fr): +1

Group IIA (Be, Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba): +2

H in compound = +1, except metal hydride compounds (Hydrogen which binds IA or IIA groups) oxidation number H = -1, for example, LiH, MgH₂, etc.

  • 2. Oxidation number O in compound = -2, except OF2 = + 2 and in peroxide (Na₂O₂, BaO₂) = -1 and superoxide, for example KO₂ = -1/2.
  • 3 The oxidation number in a non-filled compound = 0,

The total amount of oxidation in ion = ion charge, Example NO₃⁻ = -1

If we see the choice of answers

  • 1. Hydrogen is usually –1.

This statement is wrong because generally the value of H is +1 except for the Hydride metal

  • 2. Oxygen is usually –2

This statement is true, except the oxygen content of OF2, peroxide and superoxide compounds

  • 3. A pure group 1 element is +1

In the form of a single or pure element, all the classes of oxidation are 0, so this statement is wrong

  • 4. A monatomic ion is 0

Monoatomic ions consist of one ion atom is composed of several atoms called polyatomic ions

Monoatomic ion is dependent on the ion, such as H + oxidation +1, Ca2 + oxidation +2 etc. So this statement is wrong

Hydrogen is usually –1. This is INCORRECT. The oxidation number for H is +1.
Oxygen is usually –2. This is CORRECT.
A pure group 1 element is +1. This is INCORRECT. It does not follow. This will depend on the other elements and the overall charge.
A monatomic ion is 0. This is INCORRECT. Diatomic ion is 0.

How many molecules are there in 7.27 miles of ammonia?
NemiM [27]

Hey There!

To solve this question remember that 1 mole of ammonia is equal to 17G of ammonia.

Using that, we first multiply 17 by 7 = 24

Then we multiply 7 by .27 = 1.89

Finally, taking those and adding them together gives you the answer...

<u>25.89 grams :)</u>

<u>Have a great day, I hope I helped.</u>

Osmosis is the process responsible for carrying nutrients and water from groundwater supplies to the upper parts of trees. The o
ad-work [718]

Answer:

The molar concentration would have to be 0,81 M.

Explanation:

The osmotic pressure equation is:

                                               \pi = M R T

where:

\pi: osmotic pressure [atm]

M: molar concentration [M]

R: gas constant 0,08205 [atm.L/mol.°K]

T: absolute temperature [°K]

To solve the problem, we just clear M from the osmotic pressure equation and then replace our data using the appropiate units. Clearing the variable M we have:

M = \frac{\pi }{RT}

We have to use temperature as absolute temperature (in kelvins), T=29+273=302 °K. Now we can replace our values in the equation:

M = \frac{20,1 atm}{0,08205 \frac{atm.L}{mol.K} * 302 K }

As we can see, all units will be simplified and we'll have the molar concentration in mol/L.

M = 0,81 \frac{mol}{L} = 0, 81 M

In the presence of excess oxygen, methane gas burns in a constant-pressure system to yield carbon dioxide and water: CH4 (g) + 2
djyliett [7]

Answer:

-100.125

Explanation:

We are given

          CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2H2O (l)    △H = -890.0 kJ/mol

The given information is for complete reaction

we have 1.8grams of Methane

Molar mass of CH4 = 16  

No of moles of Methane = 1.8/ 16

                                          = 0.1125

So the amount of the heat will be released from the amount of the methane

Q = No of moles*( -890.0 kJ/mol)

  = 0.1125*(-890)

   = -100.125kJ/mole

Therefore the amount of Energy released from 1.8 grams of methane is equal to -100.125
