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

Adding O2 to the reaction 6CO2 + 6H2O <---> C6H12O6 + 6O2, WHICH WAY WILL THE REACTION SHIFT?

Alex73 [517]

Increase in Oxygen shift the equilibrium towards reactant side.

Explanation:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ⇄ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

This is the reaction occurs in the photosynthesis of plants by means of sunlight. In this case, if the concentration of Oxygen increases or adding more oxygen to the product side will shift the equilibrium towards the reactant side according to the Le Chatlier's principle, which adjusts the equilibrium by itself for any changes that is increase or decrease in pressure, temperature or concentration of reactants or products.

For the following reaction, calculate how many moles of NO2 forms when 0.356 moles of the reactant completely reacts.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

0.712 mol of NO₂ are formed .

Explanation:

For the reaction , given in the question ,

2 N₂O₅ ( g ) → 4 NO₂ ( g ) + O₂ ( g )

From the above balanced reaction ,

2 mol of N₂O₅ reacts to give 4 mol of NO₂

Applying unitary method ,

1 mol of N₂O₅ reacts to give 4 / 2 mol of NO₂

From the question , 0.356 mol of N₂O₅ are reacted ,

now, using the above equation , to calculate the moles of the NO₂ , as follow -

Since ,

1 mol of N₂O₅ reacts to give 4 / 2 mol of NO₂

0.356 mol of N₂O₅ reacts to give 4 / 2 * 0.356 mol of NO₂

Calculating ,

0.712 mol of NO₂ are formed .

What type of bonding occurs in a sample of pure chromium, cr? in other words, how is one chromium atom held to another chromium

spayn [35]

Chromium is a metal in nature. So when one chromium is bonded to another chromium, there is a weak intermolecular forces which helds them together which we call as “metallic bonding”.

Metallic bonding is the intermolecular force of attraction which exist between valence electrons and the metal atoms. It is considered as the sharing of various detached electrons between many positive ions, whereby the electrons serve as a "glue" which gives the substance a definite structure.
