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

Chemistry

Shtirlitz [24]3 years ago

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.

Complete combustion of 2.0 metric tons of coal to gaseous carbon dioxide releases 6.6X10¹⁰ J of heat. Convert this energy to
Jobisdone [24]

6.6 × 10^{10} J = 6.2 × 10^{7} British thermal units

First of all, we should know that 1 British thermal unit = 1055 Joules.

From question, heat = 6.6 × 10^{10} J

1 BTU = 1055 J

6.6 × 10^{10} J = \frac{1}{1055} ×  6.6 × 10^{10} British thermal units

                   = 6.2 × 10^{7} British thermal units

1000 Joules = 1 kilojoule

A kilojoule is a unit of measure of energy, in the equal way that kilometers degree distance. meals energy used to be measured in energy  and some international locations still use those gadgets.

The power we get from foods and drinks is measured in kilojoules. that is the metric time period for calorie. Kilojoules and energy constitute the equal aspect. One calorie is ready four kilojoules.

Calorie a unit for measuring warmth same to the quantity of warmth required to elevate the temperature of one gram of water one diploma Celsius.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Mg donates two electrons to O

Explanation:

Lewis dot notation uses dots and crosses to represent valence electrons on atoms.

Magnesium is a metal and would donate or lose electrons during bonding.

Oxygen is a non metal and would gain electrons during bonding.

The correct option is;

Mg donates two electrons to O

How does the tilt of earth <br>affect the climate?
masha68 [24]
The tilt of the earth provides the earth with seasons. As the earth revolved around the sun different portions (northern or Southern Hemisphere) is exposed more directly to the suns radiation, thus it is hotter in those regions. (Why the United States experiences winter in December but Australia experience summer in December.)
