Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that oxidation number of sodium is +1 and the oxidation number of oxygen is -2.

Let the oxidation number of tin (Sn) is x.

Therefore, calculate the oxidation number of tin in the given formula as follows.

                              Na_{2}SnO_{2}

       = (2 \times oxidation number of Na) + Oxidation number of Sn + (2 \times oxidation number of O)

        = (2 \times +1) + x + (2 \times (-2))

So,         2 + x - 4 = 0

therefore,          x = +2

Thus, we can conclude that the oxidation number of tin (Sn) in the compound Na_{2}SnO_{2} is +2.

O.N. of Na = +1

O.N. of O = -2

Let, O.N. of Tin = x

1*2 + x + -2*2 = 0

2+x-4 = 0

x-2 = 0

x = 2

SO OPTION C IS YOUR ANSWER......

A sample of an unknown compound is vaporized at 150.°C . The gas produced has a volume of 960.mL at a pressure of 1.00atm , and
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

34.02 g.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the gas behaves ideally, we can use the following equation to compute the moles at the specified conditions:

PV=nRT\\\\n=\frac{1.00atm*0.960L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*(150+273)K} =0.0277mol\\\\

Now, since the molar mass of a compound is computed by dividing the mass over mass, we obtain the following molar mass:

MM=\frac{0.941g}{0.0277mol} \\\\MM=34.02g/mol

So probably, the gas may be H₂S.

Best regards!

Which of the following examples illustrates a number that is correctly rounded to three significant figures?
Naily [24]

Answer:

c. 20.0332 g to 20,0 g

Explanation:

A significant figure is each of the digits of a number that are used to express it to the required degree of accuracy, starting from the first non-zero digit, with the exception of the trailing zeros.

<em>Which of the following examples illustrates a number that is correctly rounded to three significant figures? </em>

a. 109 526 g to 109 500 g. NO. The rounded number has 4 significant figures: 109 500.

b. 0.03954 g to 0.040 g. NO. The rounded number has 2 significant figures:  0.040.

c. 20.0332 g to 20.0 g. YES. The rounded number has 3 significant figures:  20.0.

d. 04.05438 g to 4.054 g. NO. The rounded number has 4 significant figures: 4.054.

e. 103.692 g to 103.7g. NO. The rounded number has 4 significant figures: 103.7.
