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, $Mn_2O_7$

Let the oxidation state of Mn be, 'x'

$2x+7(-2)=0\\\\2x-14=0\\\\x=\frac{+14}{2}\\\\x=+7$

Therefore, the oxidation number of sulfur (Mn) is, (+7)

In this drama, a crucible would represent the constant building action leading to the climax of the pot.

What is crucible?

A crucible is a ceramic as well as metal vessel used to melt metals or subject other substances to extremely high temperatures. Crucibles can be made from any material that can withstand temperatures high enough to melt and otherwise change their contents, despite historically being most frequently made of clay. The crucible's shape has changed over time, with designs that take into account both regional variation and the process for that they are used. The earliest crucible forms date to Iran and Eastern Europe in the sixth or fifth millennia B.C.

Similar to the contents of a crucible, the characters seem to be constantly enduring severe trials; in this case, the witching trials. The crucible would, in my opinion, symbolize the town itself and its residents. The symbolism of this suggests a theme of the townspeople going through the witching trials and coming out with a "refined" lesson. The unnecessary accusations and trials will teach a hard lesson to the people who live within the town and influence their future.

A sample of octane undergoes combustion according to the equation 2 C8H18 + 25 O2 → 16 CO2 + 18 H2O ΔH°rxn = -11018 kJ. What mas

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{528.7 g} }$

Explanation:

It often helps to write the heat as if it were a reactant or a product in the thermochemical equation.

Then you can consider it to be 11018 "moles" of "kJ"

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

M_r: 32.00

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ ⟶ 16CO₂ + 8H₂O + 11 018 kJ

n/mol: 7280

1. Moles of O₂

The molar ratio is 25 mol O₂:11 018 kJ

$\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{7280 kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{25 mol O}_{2}}{\text{11 018 kJ}} = \text{16.52 mol O}_{2}$

2. Mass of O₂

$\text{Mass of C$_{8}$H}_{18} = \text{16.52 mol O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \textbf{528.6 g O}_{2}\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{528.67 g O}_{2}}$}$

A 2.684-g sample of zinc oxide was reduced by hydrogen gas, resulting in 2. 156 g of pure zinc metal. Determine the empirical fo

Afina-wow [57]

The empirical formula of the initial zinc oxide is ZnO.

<h3>What is Empirical Formula?</h3>

The empirical formula of a compound represents the ratios of elements in a compound but not the actual numbers or arrangement of the atoms.

It is the lowest whole number ratio of the element in the compound.

<h3>How to find out the empirical formula?</h3>

Find out the given masses and molar masses of the elements

The molar mass of Zn = 65 gmol⁻¹

Given the mass of Zn = 2.156 g

The molar mass of Oxygen = 16 gmol⁻¹

The mass of Oxygen = Mass of a sample of zinc oxide - the mass of zinc metal

= (2.684 - 2.156) g

= 0.528 g

Find the number of moles of the elements in the compound

The number of moles is given by

$n = \frac{m}{M}$

where m = given mass and

M = Molar mass

Number of moles of Zinc = $\frac{2.156}{65}$ = 0.033 moles

Number of moles of Oxygen = $\frac{0.528}{16}$ = 0.033 moles

Find the simplest ratios of the elements in the compound. To find the ratios simply divide the number of moles by the lowest number of moles obtained.

Here, the number of moles is the same for both elements. Hence, the simplest ratio for Zn:O is 1:1.

Therefore, the empirical formula of zinc oxide is ZnO.
