Answer : The oxidation number of sulfur (Mn) is, (+7)
Explanation :
Oxidation number : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.
It is 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.
The oxidation number of oxygen (O) in compounds is usually -2.
The given compound is,
Let the oxidation state of Mn be, 'x'
Therefore, the oxidation number of sulfur (Mn) is, (+7)
Answer: Wax
Explanation:
Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.
Usually solids are more denser than liquid, as molecules in solid are more strongly packed and thus have more mass per unit volume.
Liquids on the other hand contain molecules which are less tightly bound and thus thus contain less mass per unit volume as compared to solid.
Example: Solid wax is more denser than liquid wax.
