<u>Answer:</u> Oxidation state of Arsenic in the given compound is +3 and that of oxygen is -2.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given a compound having formula
and we need to find the oxidation state of all the atoms in this compound. There are 2 different atoms present in this : Arsenic and Oxygen
Oxidation state is the number which is assigned to an element in a compound which represents the number of electrons lost or gained by an atom in a compound.
Oxidation state of oxygen as -2 which is same always. Now, to calculate the oxidation state of Arsenic, we take the oxidation state of it be 'x'
As, there are two arsenic atoms and three oxygen atoms, then:

Hence, oxidation state of Arsenic in the given compound is +3 and that of oxygen is -2.
Gallium sulphate I belive thats it dont count me on that tho
Ethanoic (Acetic) acid is a weak acid and do not dissociate fully. Therefore its equilibrium state has to be considered here.

In this case pH value of the solution is necessary to calculate the concentration but it's not given here so pH = 2.88 (looked it up)
pH = 2.88 ==>
![[H^{+}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D)
=

= 0.001

The change in Concentration Δ
![[CH_{3}COOH]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D)
= 0.001

CH3COOH H+ CH3COOH
Initial

0 0
Change

-0.001 +0.001 +0.001
Equilibrium

- 0.001 0.001 0.001
Since the

value is so small, the assumption
![[CH_{3}COOH]_{initial} = [CH_{3}COOH]_{equilibrium}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D_%7Binitial%7D%20%3D%20%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D_%7Bequilibrium%7D)
can be made.
![k_{a} = [tex]= 1.8*10^{-5} = \frac{[H^{+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]}{[CH_{3}COOH]} = \frac{0.001^{2}}{x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20k_%7Ba%7D%20%3D%20%5Btex%5D%3D%201.8%2A10%5E%7B-5%7D%20%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOO%5E%7B-%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BCH_%7B3%7DCOOH%5D%7D%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B0.001%5E%7B2%7D%7D%7Bx%7D%20)
Solve for x to get the required concentration.
note: 1.)Since you need the answer in 2SF don&t round up values in the middle of the calculation like I've done here.
2.) The ICE (Initial, Change, Equilibrium) table may come in handy if you are new to problems of this kind
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Hello, the above question is not complete, nonetheless let us check somethings out.
Explanation:
Paleothermometer definition is from two words, that is "Paleo" which means something that is old and ''thermometer" which is an instrument for measuring temperature. So, if we add this up, Paleothermometer is an instrument for measuring "old" temperature, that is temperature. One of the Paleothermometer that is been used is the δ18O which is the one in the question that has isotopic ratio of 18O/16O, and it deals with the measurement of 18O to 16O. The others include Alkenones Paleothermometer, Mg/Ca Paleothermometer, Leaf physiognomy and so on.
If the values of the isotopic ratio that is 18O/16O ratio is low, then the temperature is high. To Calculate the 18O/16O ratio for ancient ocean then we will be using the equation below;
δ18O = (z - 1) × 1000. Where z= [(18O/16O)/( 18O/16O)sm. And sm= standard mean.
