A. The structure of [NO3]- is either trigonal planar or trigonal pyramidal draw both possible structures and determine the point
group for each using drawing software. B. Which irreducible representations represent the translational and rotational modes for each possible structure of [NO3]-?
1 answer:
Answer:
Look at the picture.
Explanation:
For planar anion point group is D3h. For trigonal piramidal point group is C3v.
On picture 2 and 3 are the tables for each point group. Irreducible representations its the horizontal rows in tables. Where you see x, y and z it's translation of p-orbitals. Where you see R - it's rotations.

Answer:
Manganese decreases from 4+ to 2+ (reduced and oxidizing agent) and nitrogen increases from 2+ to 5+ (oxidized and reducing agent).
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given redox reaction, we rewrite it as a convenient first step:
Next, we assign the oxidation numbers as follows:
Thus, we can see that both manganese and nitrogen undergo a change in their oxidation number, the former decreases from 4+ to 2+ (reduced and oxidizing agent) and the latter increases from 2+ to 5+ (oxidized and reducing agent).
