The oxidation state of the compound Mn (ClO4)3 is to be determined in this problem.

For oxygen, the charge is 2-, the total considering its number of atoms is -24.

Mn has a charge of +3.

TO compute for Mn, we must achieve zero charge overall hence 3 + 3x - 24 = 0 where x is the Cl charge.

Cl charge, x is +7.

First, we'll calculate the valency of chlorine by using the net charge on the ClO₄ ion.
The ClO₄ ion has a charge of -1, while each oxygen atom exhibits a charge of -2. Therefore,

Cl + 4(-2) = -1
Cl = 7

Next, the valency of Mn is calculated by using the overall charge, which is 0

Mn + 3(-1) = 0
Mn = 3

Therefore, the valencies are:
Mn = 3
Cl = 7
O = -2

A changing magnetic field produces an electric field with open loop field lines.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A changing magnetic field induces a current in a conductor. For example, if we move a bar magnet near a conductor loop, a current gets induced in it.

Calculate the molarity of 1.60L of a solution containing 1.55g of dissolved KBr

Olegator [25]

Answer: the molarity is .00814

Explanation:the formula for molarity is moles over liters but we have grams so we do given over one so 1.55 over 1 multiplied by 1/119.0023 which is tht two atomc masses addes together then you get the moles and divde them by the liters to get the molarity hope this helps god bless

When the pressure on a solid is greatly increased, the volume of the solid shows almost no change.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

The volume of the solid shows no change

Explanation:

Pressure only affects gaseous system. This is because the force of cohesion between the gaseous molecules are negligible(i.e very small) and their molecules are far apart hence the gaseous molecules are easily compressed. But for solid, the Particles are very close and tightly packed together with a strong force of cohesion hence pressure has no effect on it. This account for the definite shape and definite volume of solid

How many more valence electrons does oxygen need to have a full outer valence shell?

sergejj [24]

Oxygen is in group 16 of the PTOE, so it has 6 valence electrons. In order to have a full outer shell it would need 2 more electrons. (second shell can hold a max of 8 electrons)
