Assuming that you mean 10^-4 M then this would be basic and would have a pH of 10.
pOH = -log[OH].
So pOH = 4
pH=14-pOH
pH = 10
Answer:
Answer:
step 1:balance skeleton equation the chemical equation:
Zn +HNO3➔Zn(NO3)2+NO+H2O
step 2: identity undergoing oxidation or reduction
here
Zn➔Zn(NO3)2
Zn is oxidized from 0 to 2 in oxidation no.
HNO3➔NO
N is reduced from 5 to 2 in oxidation no
Step 3: calculate change in oxidation no.
change in oxidation no
in Zn=0-2=-2=2
in
N=5-2=3
Step 4: Balance it by doing crisscrossed multiplication
we get;
3Zn +2HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+H2O
step 6:Balance other atoms except H & O
3Zn +2HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+H2O
3Zn +2HNO3+6HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+H2O
finally: balance H
<em><u>3Zn +8HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+4H2O</u></em>
Answer:
They went from atoms to oxygen molecule.
Explanation:
I'm not sure if this is the answer your teacher is looking for, but in simple terms you had 2 oxygen atoms. Together they make an oxygen molecule, which is the stuff we breathe.
Answer:
Explanation:
In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.
We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.
The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.
To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:
- The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
- The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to the charge on the ion.
For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻
This would be: 2x + 7(-2) = -2
x = +6
We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.
