5 0

Answer : The correct option is, (1) 0

Explanation :

Oxidation state or oxidation number : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.

Oxidation numbers are generally written with sign (+ and -) first and then the magnitude.

When the atoms are present in their elemental state then the oxidation number will be zero.

As per question, 'Mn' atom is a free element that means it is present in their elemental state then the oxidation state will be zero.

Hence, the correct option is, (1) 0

Which of the following (with specific heat capacity provided) would show the smallest temperature change upon gaining 200.0 J of

Brut [27]

Answer: The smallest temperature change is shown by water.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat absorbed or released, we use the equation:

$q=mC\times \Delta T$ ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed = 200.0 J

m = mass of the substance

C = specific heat of substance

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature

As, the same amount of heat is getting absorbed in all the cases. So, the change in temperature will depend on the product of mass and specific heat.

For the given options:

Option a: 50.0 g Fe, $C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 0.449J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 0.449}=8.99^oC$

Change in temperature = 8.99°C

Option b: 50.0 g water, $C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 4.18}=0.96^oC$

Change in temperature = 0.96°C

Option b: 25.0 g Pb, $C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.128J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.128}=62.5^oC$

Change in temperature = 62.5°C

Option d: 25.0 g Ag, $C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.235J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.235}=34.04^oC$

Change in temperature = 34.04°C

Option e: 25.0 g granite, $C_{granite}=0.79J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.79J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.79J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.79}=10.13^oC$

Change in temperature = 10.13°C

Hence, the smallest temperature change is shown by water.

What type of bond forms between two oxygen atoms

mr_godi [17]

Answer:A double convalescent bond is where two pairs of electrons are shared between the atoms rather than just one pair. Two oxygen atoms can both achieve stable structures by sharing two pairs of electrons as in the diagram.
