Answer:

Mn Mn2+ + 2 e-

Since manganese is a transition metal, it is not possible to predict its ion charge from its group number. The charge on the ion is given by the roman numeral in its name. The charge is therefore +2

The symbol for the manganese(II) ion is therefore Mn2+ .

Mn has an atomic number of 25 , with 25 protons and 25 electrons in the neutral atom. In order for the ion to carry a charge of +2 it must have 2 more protons than it does electrons, so the atom must lose 2 electrons .

Which chemical class does phenobarbital belong to?

drek231 [11]

Phenobarbital is derivative of Barbituric Acid and Barbituric Acid is derivative of Urea. (structures shown in Fig below)

Urea has H₂N- group attached to Carbonyl Group (C=O), and such class of comounds conataining H₂N-C=O bond are called as Amides.

Result:
So, Phenobarbital belongs to Amides.

Answer:

plasma

Explanation:

Plasmas are a lot like gases, but the atoms are different, because they are made up of free electrons and ions of an element such as neon (Ne). You don't find naturally occurring plasmas too often when you walk around. They aren't things that happen regularly on Earth.

What is the change in enthalpy when 4.00 mol of sulfur trioxide decomposes to sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas? 250 2(g) + O2(g) ®

lidiya [134]

Answer: A. -396 kJ

Explanation:

The standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements, with all substances in their standard states.

$2SO_2(g)+O_2 (g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$ $\Delta H^0=198kJ$
