There are 3 different elements
1) in periodic acid (HIO₄), iodine has oxidation number +7, hydrogen has oxidation number +1, oxygen has -2, compound has neutral charge:
+1 + x + 4 · (-2) = 0.
x = +7.
2) in molecule of iodine (I₂), iodine has oxidation number 0, because iodine is nonpolar molecule.
3) in sodium iodide (NaI), iodine has oxidation number -1, sodium has oxidation number +1:
+1 + x = 0.
x = -1.
4) in iodic acid (HIO₃), iodine has oxidation number +5, hydrogen has oxidation number +1, oxygen has -2, compound has neutral charge:
+1 + x + 3 · (-2) = 0.
x = +5.
After 3 years, the substance will go through 4 half lives. You can do 230*(1/2)^4, which is 14.375.
Heat produced = -13588.956 kJ
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
The reaction of combustion of Methane
CH4(g)+2O2(g)→CO2(g)+2H2O(g) ΔH∘rxn=−802.3kJ
271 g of CH4
Required
Heat produced
Solution
mol of 271 g CH₄ (MW=16 g/mol0
mol = mass : MW
mol = 271 : 16
mol = 16.9375
So Heat produced :
= mol x ΔH°rxn
= 16.9375 mol x −802.3kJ/mol = -13588.956 kJ
