Answer : The oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0).
Explanation :
Oxidation number or oxidation state : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.
Oxidation numbers are generally written with the sign (+) and (-) first and then the magnitude.
Rules for Oxidation Numbers are :
The oxidation number of a free element is always zero.
The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.
The oxidation number of Hydrogen (H) is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electronegative elements.
The oxidation number of oxygen (O) in compounds is usually -2.
The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.
The sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atoms in a neutral compound is zero.
The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge of the ion.
The given chemical reaction is:
In the given reaction, the oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0) because it is a free element and the oxidation state of Mg in 
is (+2).
Hence, the oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0).
Remember: energy is conserved in a chemical reaction (visualize the reaction and question whether heat lies on reactant side (left) or product side (right))
-exothermic- heat is released (heat is on the product side)
>forming an ionic lattice (SALT)- mixture of Na and Cl results in a more stable ionic lattice, causing this reaction to be exothermic
>burning wood
-endothermic- heat is absorbed (heat is on the reactant side)
> cooking an egg
Answer:
CuCl2-Ion-dipole forces
CuSO4-Ion-dipole forces
NH3-Dipole-dipole forces
CH3OH-Dipole-dipole forces
Explanation:
Water consists of a dipole. The water molecule contains a positive end and a negative end. The positive ion attracts the negative dipole of water while the positive dipole in water interacts with the negative ion of an ionic substance. This explains the dissolution of ionic substances in water.
Copper II chloride and copper sulphate are ionic substances hence they dissolve by the mechanism described above.
Molecules consisting of dipoles dissolves by interaction of the molecule's dipoles with the dipoles in water. For example, methanol interacts with water through hydrogen bonding which is involves molecular dipoles
Ni = Nickel
SO4 = Sulphate
2 and 3 in the sub-script are the charges.
So , its name is NICKEL SULPHATE
