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

Factors that limit a technological design are called constrains. But why?
noname [10]

The factors that limit a technological design can be physical and social. The physical limitations are constraints due to nature itself. They  include natural laws and properties of materials.

Social limitations on the other hand are limitations that arise as a result of the society we are living in and include the ease of use, safety, attractiveness, and cost.

How many molecules are there in 42 grams of AIF3
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 3.012×10^23  molecules

Explanation:

The number of molecules is present in any mole of an element or compound are the same. To find the molecules you need to multiply the number of the moles of the compound by Avogadro's number:

Moles are calculated from the molecular weight, for AlF3

= 26.98 + 3×19

= 26.98 + 57

= 83.98

Then moles in 42 grams:

= 42/83.98

= 0.5001190 moles

Now the number of molecules = moles*Avogadro's number

= 0.500110×6.022×10^23

= 3.011×10^23  molecules
