What is the oxidation number of each phosphorus atom in H4P2O7

Chemistry
1 answer:
nekit [7.7K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

+5

Explanation:

The oxidation number of phosphorus can be obtained as follows:

H4P2O7 = 0

4(+1) + 2P + 7(—2) = 0

4 + 2P —14 = 0

Collect like terms

2P = 14 — 4

2P = 10

Divide both side by 2

P = 10/2

P = +5

The oxidation number of phosphorus is +5

Molarity of 0.50 mol sugar in 270 mL of solution.
EastWind [94]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.85 M

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Number of moles as 0.50 mol
  • Volume of the solution is 270 ml

But, 1000 mL = 1 L

  • Thus, volume of the solution is 0.27 L

We are required to calculate the molarity of the solution;

  • Molarity refers to the concentration of a solution in moles per liter.
  • It is calculated by dividing number of moles with the volume.

Molarity = Moles ÷ Volume

In this case;

Molarity = 0.50 moles ÷ 0.27 L

             = 1.85 Mol/L or 1.85 M

Therefore, molarity of the solution is 1.85 M
