Fe(NO3)2 not sure how to get the oxidation numbers of all elements

You must remember that oxidation number of hydrogen in acids is always +1, oxidation number of oxygen in oxides & acids is always -2... metals has always oxidation number on plus!

group NO3 comes from HNO3...and oxidation number of whole acid group is always on minus and equal to the amount of hydrogen atoms in this acid... so oxidation number of NO3 = -1

we have 2 NO3 groups so 2*(-1) = -2 and that is the reason why oxidation number of Fe in this formula must be +2... because sum of all elements always gives 0!

Now we could count of oxidation number for nitrogen... we write HNO3 and start counting from right to left:
3*(-2) from oxygens + 1 from hydrogen = -5
so nitrogen must have +5 oxidation number... because sum all in formula must be 0.

A buffer is prepared by dissolving 0.80 moles of NH3 and 0.80 moles of NH4Cl in 1.00 L of aqueous solution. If 0.10 mol of NaOH
Vikki [24]

Answer:

a. 10.54

Explanation:

reaction is

NH₃ +  NaOH   -----------------NH₄Cl + H₂O

0.10 mol NaOH will consume 0.10 mol NH₃ thereby decreasing the initial amount of moles NH₃ and increasing that of NH₄Cl

mol NH₃  = 0.80 - 010 = .70

mol NH₄Cl = 0.80 + .10 = 0.90

pH = pKₐ + log (( NH₃/NH₄Cl))

pH =  9.26 + log (( 0.90 + 0.70)) = 9.26 + 0.11 = 10.54

Lynna [10]

Answer:

3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²

Explanation:

We can <u>define ppm as mg of Pb²⁺ per liter of water</u>.

We<u> calculate the mass of lead ion in 100 mL of water</u>:

  • 100.0 mL ⇒ 100.0 / 1000 = 0.100 L
  • 0.100 L * 0.0080 ppm = 8x10⁻⁴ mg Pb⁺²

Now we <u>convert mass of lead to moles</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 8x10⁻⁴ mg ⇒ 8x10⁻⁴ / 1000 = 8x10⁻⁷ g
  • 8x10⁻⁷ g Pb²⁺ ÷ 207.2 g/mol = 3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²
