<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

You have 28.5 g of iron shot that has a volume of 3.60 mL. From this information, calculate the density of iron.
laila [671]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf \rho \approx 7.917 \ g/mL}}

Explanation

Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume.

\rho=\frac{m}{v}

We know the iron sheet has a mass of 28.5 grams and the volume is 3.60 milliliters.

m= 28.5 \ g \\d= 3.60 \ mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

\rho=\frac{28.5 \ g}{ 3.60 \ mL}

Divide.

\rho = 7.91666667 \ g/mL

Let's round to the nearest thousandth.

The 6 in the ten-thousandth tells us to round the 6 to a 7.

\rho \approx 7.917 \ g/mL

The density of iron is about <u>7.917 grams per milliliter.</u>

Answer:

First and last sentence .‍♀️

Explanation:

An important thing to keep in mind about the Reading Comprehension section of the GRE as we use PowerPrep online to study is that it is just that—reading comprehension. In other words, as difficult as it may seem, and it can be pretty tricky, the test makers will always give us all the information we need in the passage to answer the question.
