The oxidation number of an element is the number of electrons that are gained or lost by the element to form a chemical bond. 
the net oxidation number of the ion is its charge.
compound (NH₄)₂Cr₂O₇ is made of cation - NH₄⁺ and anion - Cr₂O₇²⁻
oxidation number of ion - -2
(oxidation number of Cr x 2 Cr atoms) +(oxidation number of O x 7 O atoms )= -2
oxidation number of Cr = y
oxidation number of O = -2
(y x 2) + (-2 x 7) = -2
2y - 14 = -2
2y = 12
y  = + 6
therefore oxidation number of Cr is +6

An aqueous solution contains 1.00 g/L of a derivative of the detergent laurel alcohol. The osmotic pressure of this solution is
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

mm = 1043.33 g/mol

Explanation:

osmotic pressure (π):

  • π = CbRT

∴ π = 17.8 torr = 0.0234 atm

∴ Cb: solute concentration

∴ T = 25°C = 298 K

∴ R = 0.082 atm.L/K.mol

⇒ Cb = π/RT

⇒ Cb = (0.0234 atm)/((0.082 atm.L/K.mol)(298 K))

⇒ Cb = 9.585 E-4 mol/L

molar mass (mm):

⇒ mm = (1.00 g/L)(L/9.585 E-4 mol)

⇒ mm = 1043.33 g/mol

What is the empirical formula of propene CH3 CH2 CH2​
kiruha [24]

Answer:

<u>CH</u>

Explanation:

Molecular formula of propene : <u>C₃H₆</u>

Take the HCF of carbon and hydrogen atoms :

  • 3 = 3
  • 6 = 2 x 3

Then, we can write the formula as :

  • 3CH
  • This means there are 3 moles present

Empirical Formula :

  • Molecular Formula / No. of moles
  • C₃H₆ / 3
  • <u>CH</u>

<u></u>

The empirical formula of propene is <u>CH</u>
