Answer : The charge of cesium is, (+1)

Explanation :

Oxidation state or number : Oxidation state represent the number of electrons gained or lost by the atoms of an element in the compound.  That means it also tells us about the charge present on the cation and the anion.

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

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

Oxidation number of  oxygen (O)  in compounds is usually equal to (-2).

The given chemical formula of cesium oxide is, Cs_2O

Let the oxidation state of 'Cs' be, 'x'

2x+1(-2)=0\\\\2x-2=0\\\\x=\frac{2}{2}\\\\x=+1

Therefore, the charge of cesium is, (+1)

How much calcium can be recovered from 75.0g of calcium fluoride
7nadin3 [17]

38.46g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of CaF₂ = 75.0g

Unknown:

Mass of calcium that can be recovered = ?

Solution:

This is a mass percentage problem and we need to solve it accordingly.

To solve this problem;

Find the molar mass of  CaF₂

Find the ratio between the molar mass of Ca and that of  CaF₂

Multiply by the given mass

Molar mass of  CaF₂ = 40 + (2 x 19) = 78g/mol

Mass of calcium = \frac{40}{78} x 75 = 38.46g
