Calculate the oxidation number of s in S2O8^2-​

Chemistry

mixer [17]3 years ago
3 0

Given problem:

    S₂O₈²⁻

Find the oxidation number of S;

Oxidation number presents the extent of oxidation of each atom of elements a molecular formular or formula unit or an ionic radical.

  For radicals:

          "the algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to the charge on the ion  "

 S₂O₈²⁻;   oxidation number of O is usually -2

             2(S) + 8(-2) = -2

               2S - 16  = -2

               2S = -2 + 16

                2S  = 14

                   S  = +7

The oxidation state of S in the radical is +7

Question #1
Potasium hydroxide (known)
 volume used is 25 ml 
Molarity (concentration) = 0.150 M
Moles of KOH used 
           0.150 × 25/1000 = 0.00375 moles
Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) 
volume used = 15.0 ml
unknown concentration
The equation for the reaction is
2KOH (aq)+ H2SO4(aq) = K2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) 
Thus, the Mole ratio of KOH to H2SO4 is 2:1
Therefore, moles of H2SO4 used will be;
      0.00375 × 1/2 = 0.001875 moles
Acid (sulfuric acid)  concentration
    0.001875 moles × 1000/15  
        = 0.125 M

Question #2
Hydrogen bromide (acid)
Volume used = 30 ml
Concentration is 0.250 M
Moles of HBr used;
      0.25 × 30/1000
        =  0.0075 moles 
Sodium Hydroxide (base)
Volume used 20 ml 
Concentration (unknown)
The equation for the reaction is 
NaOH + HBr = NaBr + H2O
The mole ratio of NaOH : HBr   is 1 : 1
Therefore, moles of NaOH used;
                 = 0.0075 moles
NaOH concentration will be 
       = 0.0075 moles × 1000/20
       = 0.375 M

Describe what happens when ice changes<br> into liquid water.
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

When ice changes into liquid water it melts. The solidified ice in the frozen, would melt via the burning sun shooting its streaks down at the ice. Which causes the ice to melt, and turn into liquid water.

iron will react with oxygen to produce Fe2O3. how many grams of Fe2O3 will he produced if 0.18 mil of Fe reacts?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

14.4g

Explanation:

First, we need to write a balanced equation for the reaction between Fe and O2 to produce Fe2O3. This is illustrated below:

4Fe + 3O2 —> 2Fe2O3

From the balanced equation,

4moles of Fe produced 2moles of Fe2O3.

Therefore, 0.18mol of Fe will produce = (0.18x2) /4 = 0.09mol of Fe2O3.

Now we need to find the mass present in 0.09mol of Fe2O3. This can be achieved by doing the following:

Molar Mass of Fe2O3 = (56x2) + (16x3) = 112 + 48 = 160g/mol

Number of mole of Fe2O3 = 0.09mol

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of Fe2O3 = 0.09 x 160 = 14.4g
