KMnO₄ has an overall neutral charge, so that means that the total oxidation numbers should sum up to 0.

Oxygen will almost always have an oxidation number of -2, and K, because it is a group 1A metal, has an oxidation number of +1

There are 4 oxygens so the total oxidation number is 4*-2 = -8
And K has an oxidation number of +1

We are trying to find out the oxidation number of Mn. Remember since our compound is neutral, the sum of the oxidation numbers should be 0. So if we call the oxidation number of Mn as X, we then know that

X + (-8) + 1 = 0
X = -1 + 8
X = 7

Therefore, Mn has an oxidation number of 7.

Since O almost always has a charge of -2, the oxygen atoms have an overall charge of -8 (-2*4)

Since K has a charge of +1, that brings the overall charge to -7 (-8+1)

Then, in order for the overall charge to be 0, Mn would have to have a change of +7 (-7+7=0)

Hope this helps

The orbital radius of Venus is 0.72 AU. What is this distance in kilometers? (One AU is about 150 million kilometers.)
Evgen [1.6K]
<span>The answer is D) 108 million kilometers. To solve this problem, you must perform a simple unit conversion calculation. 1 AU = 150,000,000 km is the conversion factor. Take the radius of Venus, .72 AU, and multiply it by 150,000,000 km/1 AU. You flip the conversion factor so that the units of the original distance in the numerator cancel the units in the denominator of the conversion factor. completing the calculation gives you 108,000,000 km</span>

15.5 g of an unknown metal at 165.0°C is dropped into 150.0mL of H2O at 23.0°C in a coffee cup calorimeter. The metal and H2O re

Answer:

Specific heat capacity of metal is 2.09 j/g.°C.

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Given data:

Mass of metal = 15.5 g

Initial temperature = 165.0°C

Initial temperature of water = 23.0°C

Final temperature = 30.0°C

Specific heat capacity of metal = ?

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Volume of water = 150.0 mL or 150.0 g

Solution:

Formula:

- Qm  =  +Qw

Now we will put the values in formula.

-15.5 g × c × [ 30.0°C - 165.0°C] = 150 g × 4.184 J/g°C × [ 30.0°C - 23.0°C]

15.5 g × c × 135°C = 4393.2 j

2092.5 g.°C  × c = 4393.2 j

c = 4393.2 j/2092.5 g.°C  

c = 2.09 j/g.°C

In 1928, 47.5 g of a new element was isolated from 660 kg of the ore molybdenite. the percent by mass of this element in the ore
vitfil [10]

To take the percent by mass of this element, we use the formula:

% mass = (mass of element / mass of ore) * 100%

% mass = (47.5 g / (660 kg * 1000 g / kg)) * 100*

7. Physical properties of matter are properties that can be measured or observed without matter changing to an entirely different substance. These include odor, boiling point, melting point, density, electrical conductivity and heat conductivity.

Separation of mixture:

Chromatography involves solvent separation on a solid medium.

Distillation takes advantage of differences in boiling points.

Evaporation removes a liquid from a solution to leave a solid material.

Filtration separates solids of different sizes.

Funnel partitioning with solvents. Solvent dissolves one component but not the other.

Microminerals are those minerals needed in less than 100 mg quantities. Trace minerals or trace elements are usually needed in microgram quantities. Microminerals include iron, zinc, copper, iodine, fluoride, chromium, cobalt, selenium, manganese, and molybdenum.

Diatomic Molecules => H₂, N₂, O₂, F₂, Cl₂, Br₂, I₂

9. Electron Configurations

    Na: 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ => valence = 3s¹

    N:   1s²2s²2p³ => valence = 2s²2p³

    Al:  1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p¹ => valence = 3s²3p¹

Valence is the highest principle quantum number (or, principle energy level  ~ ring) in the electron configurations.

10.moles of glucose = 450g/180.16 g/mol =2.50 moles

   C₂H₆O₂ = 2(12) + 6(1) + 2(16) = 24 + 6 + 32 = 62 g/mole
