<h3>Answer:</h3>

             Rb  =  + 1

              S    =  + 4

              O   =  - 2

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                   Oxidation states of the elements were calculated keeping in mind the basic rules of assigning oxidation states which included assignment of +1 charge to first group elements i.e. Rubidium (Rb) and assignment of -2 charge to Oxygen atom. Then the oxidation state of Sulfur was calculated as follow,

Rb₂ + S + O₃  =  0

Above zero (0) means that the overall molecule is neutral.

Putting values of Rb and O,

                                           (+1)₂ + S + (-2)₃  =  0

                                           (+2) + S + (-6)  =  0

                                           +2 + S - 6  = 0

                                           S - 6  =  -2

                                          S  =  -2 + 6

                                           S  =  + 4

If liquid water is exposed to normal atmospheric pressure, what needs to change in order to change its state of matter?
inn [45]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

State of a substance changes when heat is provided to a substance.

This is because when we heat water then intermoleclar forces present within its molecules tend to break down. Due to this molecules start to move away from each other.

As a result, kinetic energy of molecules increases and they collide rapidly. Hence, solid state of water changes into liquid state and upon excessive heating liquid state of water changes into vapor state.

Thus, we conclude that temperature of water needs to change in order to change its state of matter.
