Chlorine goes from Cl₂ to ClO⁻.

Oxidation state of Cl in Cl₂ is zero whereas in ClO⁻ it is +1. Hence change in oxidation state of Chlorine is 1.

Calculation of oxidation number of Cl in ClO⁻ or HClO⁻ :
Let x be oxidation number of Cl in ClO⁻ the. Now since the net charge on ClO⁻ is -1, sum of oxidation number of all must be equal to -1. 


Therefore,
x + (-2) = -1 .....[ oxidation number of O is -2]
∴ x = 2-1 = +1
Therefore oxidation number of Cl in ClO⁻ is +1

How many grams of nitric acid will react completely with a block of iron metal that is 4.5 cm by 3.0 cm by 3.5 cm, if the densit
denpristay [2]

Balance the equation first: 

2 Fe+6 HNO3→2 Fe(NO3)3+3H2

Then calculate mass of Iron :

4.5×3.0×3.5 cm3(1 mL1 cm3)(7.87 g Fe1 ml)=371.86 g Fe

Now use Stoichiometry:

371.86 g Fe×(1 mol Fe55.85 g Fe)×(6 mol HNO32 mol Fe)=19.97 mol HNO3

Convert moles of nitric acid to grams

19.97 mol HNO3×(63.01 g HNO31 mol HNO3)=1258.3 g HNO3
