Rules:
1) The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.
2)The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.
3) The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.
4) The sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a neutral compound is 0.
KCl is an ionic compound. Consists of K+ ions and Cl- ions.
Oxidation of K= +1 (rules 1 and 2)
Oxidation of Cl= -1 (rules 1 and 3)
Rule 4 also applies- +1 + (-1)= 0- a neutral compound
Hope this helps :)
Explanation:
Hydrogen and carbon because they are the most common element of canyon
Answer: B. Elements are represented by chemical formulas.
Elements are pure substances, which means that they cannot be broken down into simpler substances. The element is the most basic substance that exists, breaking it down further means breaking it down into protons, neutrons, and electrons, which is no longer a substance.
Elements have chemical properties that allow them to form different types of bonds with other elements.
However, elements *alone* are not represented by their chemical formulas. Only chemical bonds or ions are represented by a chemical formula.
Answer:
0.84ppm
Explanation:
Mass of solute = 3.8 x 10⁻⁴g
Mass of solution = 450g
Unknown is the concentration in ppm; parts per million
The parts per million is one of the units of representing small concentration of solutes in a solution.
Solutes are the substances dissolving in another to give solution.
Here the concentration is expressed in a million units.
Concentration in ppm =
x 10⁶
=
x 10⁶
= 0.84ppm
