Could someone explain what oxidation numbers are and what these questions are asking of me?

Chemistry

Oxana [17]3 years ago

The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The oxidation number of an atom is the charge that atom would have if the compound was composed of ions. 1. The oxidation number of an atom is zero in a neutral substance that contains atoms of only one element. The oxidation number of simple ions is equal to the charge on the ion.

The oxidation number of a mono atomic ion equals the charge of the ion. The oxidation number of H is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electro negative elements. The oxidation number of O in compounds is usually -2, but it is -1 in peroxides. The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.

Hii pls helpnme to write out the ionic equation ​
Oxana [17]

Answer:

CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

According to this question, sodium carbonate reacts with sulfuric acid to form aqueous sodium sulfate, carbon dioxide and water. The balanced chemical equation is as follows:

Na2CO3(aq) + H2SO4(aq) → Na2SO4(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

- Next, split compounds that are aqueous into ions.

2Na+(aq) + CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → 2Na+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

- Next, we cancel out the spectator ions, which are ions that remain the same in the reactants and products side of a chemical reaction. The spectator ions in this equation are 2Na+(aq) and SO42-(aq).

CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)

- Hence, the balanced ionic equation is as follows:

CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)

What kind of energy is stored in bonds of molecules
Ne4ueva [31]
The answer to your question would more than likely be chemical energy, natural gas, and chemical energy. but I don't know what grade your in I'm in eighth if your below I know the answer. I'm pretty sure I had a question exactly like this last year but that was last year so if it's wrong sorry. I looked it up on Google to make sure

How many moles of nacl are required to make 250 ml of a 3.00 m solution?
choli [55]
The molarity is calculated using the following rule:
molarity = number of moles of solvent / volume of solution (in liters)

We have the volume of solution = 250 ml = 0.25 liters and the molarity = 3 m

Substituting in the equation, we get:
3 = number of moles / 0.25
number of moles = 3 x 0.25 = 0.75 moles

Which of the following can an isosceles triangle not be? an acute triangle a scalene triangle an equilateral triangle a right tr
zimovet [89]

Answer;

A scalene

Explanation;

A triangle is a geometric figure with three sides and three angles that always add up to 180 degrees.

Based on properties triangles can be classified as equilateral, scalene, isosceles and right triangles.

Equilateral triangles has all the three sides and the angles equal, an isosceles triangle has two of its sides equal, and two angles that are known as the base angles equal. A scalene triangle has all the three angles and sides different from each other. A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the angle is right angle or is 90 degrees.

An isosceles triangle may be a right triangle, equilateral triangle, and also may be an acute triangle, however an isosceles triangle can never be a scalene triangle
