What is the oxidation number of manganese (Mn) in potassium permanganate (KMnO4)?

Answer:

+7

Explanation:

Within every molecule, there is always an oxidation number assigned to every individual atom within the molecule. Hydrogen will always have an oxidation number of +1 (because it only has one electron to give, and when it gives that electron, it has a charge of +1).

Elements in group 1 always have an oxidation number of +1, and elements in group 16 always have an oxidation number of -2. Using this information we can calculate the oxidation number of Mn in the molecule KMnO₄.

Overall the molecule is neutral, so all the oxidation numbers would add up to zero:

K + Mn + O₄ = 0

(+1) + Mn + 4(-2) = 0

(+1) + Mn + (-8) = 0

Mn + (-7) = 0

Mn = +7

Hund's rule states that electrons must spread out within a given subshell before they can pair
Temka [501]

Answer:

Groups 14, 15, and 16 have 2,3, and 4 electrons in the p sublevel (p sublevel has 3 "spaces" AKA orbitals), because Hunds says one in each orbital before doubling up if you had 2 electrons, group 14, they would both be in the first orbital, with 3 electrons, group 15, two in the first orbital one in the 2nd none in the 3rd. With 4 electrons, group 16, then you would have 2 in the first 2 orbitals and NONE in the 3rd.

Explanation:

If you are in group 13 you only have 1 electron so it can only be in one orbital. with group 17, you have 5 electrons, so 2 in the first 2 in the second and 1 in the 3rd, correct for Hunds rule anyway. Noble gasses, group 18, have 6 elecctrons, so every orbital is full any way you look at it.

Newton’s second law of motion
Fiesta28 [93]

When an object of mass 2Kg and applied force is 10N then acceleration is 5 m/s/s.

<h3>What is Newton's second Law?</h3>

Newton's second Law of motion will be represented as:

F = m.a, where

  • F = force
  • m = mass of object
  • a = acceleration

Acceleration for the first row will be calculated as:

  • a = 10/2 = 5 m/s/s

Acceleration for the second row will be calculated as:

  • a = 40/5 = 8 m/s/s

Mass for the third row will be calculated as:

  • m = 20/5 = 4kg

Mass for the forth row will be calculated as:

  • m = 45/45 = 1 kg

Force for the fifth row will be calculated as:

  • F = (3)(3) = 9 N

Hence, acceleration of the object whose mass is 2kg and force on that object is 10N is 5m/s/s.
