Oxidation number is defined as the total number of electrons that are gained or lost by the atom to form a chemical bond.
the oxidation number of the compound H₂S is 0.
the sum of the oxidation numbers of the individual elements should add up to the oxidation number of the compound.

(oxidation number of H x 2 H ions) + oxidation number of S = 0
since we know the oxidation number of H, lets name the oxidation number of S = x
(+1 * 2 )+ (x) = 0
2 + x = 0
x = -2
oxidation number of S is -2

Calculate the molar mass of B(NO3)3 ?

Stella [2.4K]

The molar mass of B(NO₃)₃ - Boron nitrate : 196.822 g/mol

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In stochiometry therein includes

<em>Relative atomic mass (Ar) and relative molecular mass / molar mass (M) </em>

So the molar mass of a compound is given by the sum of the relative atomic mass of Ar

M AxBy = (x.Ar A + y. Ar B)

The molar mass of B(NO₃)₃ - Boron nitrate :

M B(NO₃)₃ = Ar B + 3. Ar N + 9.Ar O

M B(NO₃)₃ = 10.811 + 3. 14,0067 + 9. 15,999

M B(NO₃)₃ = 196.822 g/mol

When a 1.00 L sample of water from the surface of the Dead Sea (which is more than 400 meters below sea level and much saltier t

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer: Molarity of $MgCl_2$ in the original sample was 1.96M

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

$Molarity=\frac{\text{no of moles}}{\text{Volume in L}}$

${\text {moles of solute}=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{186g}{95g/mol}=1.96$

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

$Molarity=\frac{1.96}{1.00L}$

$Molarity=1.96mol/L$

Thus molarity of $MgCl_2$ in the original sample was 1.96M

Consider the insoluble compound nickel(II) hydroxide , Ni(OH)2 . The nickel ion also forms a complex with cyanide ions . Write a

natali 33 [55]

Answer: Equilibrium constant for this reaction is $2.8 \times 10^{15}$ .

Explanation:

Chemical reaction equation for the formation of nickel cyanide complex is as follows.

$Ni(OH)_{2}(s) + 4CN^{-}(aq) \rightleftharpoons [Ni(CN)_{4}^{2-}](aq) + 2OH^{-}(aq)$

We know that,

K = $K_{f} \times K_{sp}$

We are given that, $K_{f} = 1.0 \times 10^{31}$

and, $K_{sp} = 2.8 \times 10^{-16}$

Hence, we will calculate the value of K as follows.

K = $K_{f} \times K_{sp}$

K = $(1.0 \times 10^{31}) \times (2.8 \times 10^{-16})$

= $2.8 \times 10^{15}$

Thus, we can conclude that equilibrium constant for this reaction is $2.8 \times 10^{15}$ .

How many moles in 843.211 grams of c6h12o6?

leonid [27]

Molar mass C6H12O6 = 12 x 6 + 1 x 12 + 16 x 6 = 180 g/mol

1 mole ------------ 180 g
( moles ) --------- 843.211 g

moles = 843.211 x 1 / 180

moles = 843.211 / 180

= 4,684 moles of C6H12O6
