What is the oxidation number of cl− in the perchlorate ion

Chemistry
1 answer:
Yuri [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The answer is: +7

Explanation:

Oxidation state or oxidation number of an element is the hypothetical charge on an element that forms completely ionic bonds. The oxidation number represents the number of electrons lost or gained by that element.

Perchlorate ion is a molecule with a chemical formula: ClO₄⁻

The oxidation state of oxygen in ClO₄⁻ = -2,

the total charge on the ClO₄⁻ molecule = -1,

let the oxidation state of chlorine be x

<u><em>As the sum of oxidation states of all elements in a molecule is equal to the total charge on the molecule.</em></u>

⇒ oxidation state of chlorine + oxidation state of oxygen × 4 = total charge on the molecule

⇒ x + (-2) × 4 = -1

⇒ x + (-8) = -1

⇒ x = -1 + 8 = +7

⇒<u> </u><u>x = +7</u>

<u>Therefore, the oxidation state of chlorine in the perchlorate ion (ClO₄⁻): x = +7</u>

Determine the approximate amount of potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHP, that you will need to neutralize 6.00 ml of 0.100 M NaOH.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

potassium hydrogen phthalate KHP MOLAR MASS = 204.233 glmol

to get 1000 ml

Molar concentration = Mass concentration/Molar Mass

mass concentration = molar concentration x molar mass

mass concentration=0.1 M,

molar mass= 204.233 g/mol

so to get 1L

mass conc = 204.233 x 0.1

= 20.4233g  for 1L or 1000 ml

to get 6.00 ml

if 20.4233g is for 1000ml

then to 6.00 ml

= 20.4233 x 6 / 1000

= 0.123g for 6.00 ml

according to the equation below

NaOH(aq) + KHC8H4O4(aq) --> KNaC8H4O4(aq) + H2O(l)

number of moles of NaOH is equal to that of KHP

so the same amount will be needed too, which is

= 0.123g

What type of molecule is shown below
Kobotan [32]

Answer is: C alkane.

Name of this molecule is n-hexane.

Hexane is alkane (acyclic saturated hydrocarbon, carbon-carbon bonds are single) of six carbon atoms.

Carbon atoms in hexane have sp3 hybridization.

In sp3 hybridization hybridize one s-orbital and three p-orbitals of carbon atom.

Alkene has one double bond and alkyne has one triple bond.

How many grams of sodium Phosphate is needed to prepare 5.0 L of a 2.6M solution ?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Molarity is the ratio of the moles and the volume. The mass of 2.6 M sodium phosphate solution is 2131.22 gms.

<h3>What is mass?</h3>

Mass is the product of the moles and the molar mass of the substance. It is given as,

Mass = Moles × Molar mass

The moles from molar concentration is used to calculate mass as:

Mass = Molarity × volume × molar mass

= 2.6 × 5.0 × 163.94

= 2131.22 gms

Therefore, 2131.22 gms is the mass of sodium phosphate.
