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

100 POINTS! HELP ME IF YOU LOVE JESUS!
mr Goodwill [35]
I only got 50 points (which is not 100). :-)

Look at the graph. At 80 °C, about 38 g of solute is able to dissolve, and that’s for ever 100 g of water. That means that for every 150 grams of water, 57 grams of solute can dissolve (38/2 = 19 + 38 = 57 g) at 80 °C. Since 57 g is greater than 55 g, all for he sodium chloride should dissolve in 150 g of water at 80 °C - you can put all of that into a “mathematical explanation”.
