Au gets oxidised and Oxygen gets reduced.

<u>Explanation:</u>

4Au(s) + 8NaCN(aq) + O₂(g) + H₂O(l) → 4 Na[Au(CN)₂](aq) + 4 NaOH(aq)

Au is in 0 oxidation state is converted to an compound in that Au is in +2 oxidation state so it gets oxidised.

O₂, gets reduced from 0 to -1 oxidation state, so it also gets reduced.

Na and CN remains as such but with different atoms.

. The normal boiling point for oxygen is at 800 torr and – 193°C, the most likely state of a sample of pure oxygen is
atroni [7]

Answer:

Gaseous at standard conditions.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given normal boiling point of oxygen, we can notice those are conditions far away from the standard conditions which are 25 °C. In such a way, since the standard temperature is by far higher than the normal boiling point, the most likely state of a sample of pure oxygen would be gaseous since the molecules will move based on the kinetic theory of gases due to the  relatively high temperature which make them be separated and moving all around.

Best regards.

A 0.89% (w/v) sodium chloride solution is referred to as physiological saline solution because it has the sameconcentration of s
elixir [45]

Answer: Molarity of a physiological saline solution is 0.15 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

n = moles of solute

V_s =volume of solution in ml

Given : 0.89 g of sodium chloride in 100 ml of solution.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{0.89g}{58.5g/mol}=0.015moles

Volume of solution = 100 ml

Molarity=\frac{0.015\times 1000}{100ml}=0.15M

Molarity of physiological saline solution is 0.15 M

Which ion(s) would bond by electrostatic attraction with an ion of Fluorine?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Intermolecular forces (IMF) (or secondary forces) are the forces which mediate interaction between atoms, including forces of attraction or repulsion which act between atoms and other types of neighboring particles, e.g. atoms or ions. Intermolecular forces are weak relative to intramolecular forces – the forces which hold a molecule together. For example, the covalent bond, involving sharing electron pairs between atoms, is much stronger than the forces present between neighboring molecules. Both sets of forces are essential parts of force fields frequently used in molecular mechanics.
