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

The latent heat of melting is 80 calories for 1 gram of ice. if 1 gram of ice absorbs 60 calories what do i get?
Eva8 [605]
Latent heat of melting is the energy that a solid absorbs to change its phase as its liquid. During this process, since all energy is used to change the phase, the temperature is constant.

Here the latent energy of melting for 1 g of ice is 80 calories and that 1 g of ice only absorbed 60 calories. hence the phase is not changed because it requires more 20 calories to melt.

Hence 1 g of ice remains as its solid phase (ice).

- Explain how ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and metallic bonds each form and how.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:  -Ionic bonds form when one atom provides electrons to another atom. Covalent Bonds: Covalent bonds form when two atom shares their valence electrons. Metallic Bonds: Metallic bonds form when a variable number of atoms share a variable number of electrons in a metal lattice.

-Covalent Bonds.

Covalent Compounds. Contain no metals and no ions. Covalent compounds contain nonmetals only.

Example:

Ionic Compounds. A metal with a non-metal. Doesn't use prefixes for naming. Name the metal and change the nonmetal ending to -ide.

Explanation: Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
