What is the oxidation state of each element in febr2?

Sauron [17]3 years ago

<span>To determine the oxidation state of a metal, like Fe (Iron) or anything else really, you generally won't know. But look at a periodic table and you'll see that most metals fall into the sort of "valley" section, and this part of the periodic table is called the "d-block" and it has 10 columns. These guys in the d-block of the periodic table have a special way of filling their orbitals, but everything on the left and right are a little simpler to understand. So we see that Br (Bromine) is one of the easier ones to find the oxidation state of, since it's on the right part of the periodic table (where there are 6 columns) and we know that they follow the octet rule, and since bromine is a halogen (That just means it's in the second to last column, which is next to the noble gasses) and things at the top right of the periodic table are highly electronegative, so they'll tend to gain another electron to have a complete octet to fill its orbitals and have a negative charge. Since it only had to gain one to have a complete octet, it's charge is now -1. We can now look at FeBr2 and see that overall the charge is 0. But it has two bromines which each have a charge of -1, so we see that we can set up a little algebra equation: (Charge of Iron) + (Charge of Bromines)=(Total Charge) So, we have: (Charge of Iron) + 2 (-1)=0 So then we can see that Iron is a +2 oxidation state, Iron (II) Bromide.

Alex

Answer:

C. natural gas

Explanation:

Solar comes from the sun, which if it became nonrenewable, we would be dead. hydroelectric comes from water and Dams, which water is reproduced through rain. Biomass are things like leaves, which are seasonally reproduced.

Which vein carries oxygenated blood back into the heart?
Finger [1]

Answer:

The veins that carry oxygenated bloof back into the heart are the pulmonary arteries.

Explanation:

Oxygen-rich blood flows from the lungs back into the left atrium (LA), or the left upper chamber of the heart, through four pulmonary veins. Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber.

Question 2(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points) What happens to the rate of most reactions as the reaction progresses? The rate remai
Sav [38]

Answer: -

The rate decreases as the concentration of the reactants decreases

Explanation: -

A reaction involves change of the reactants into products.

Initially there is only reactants. So the rate if reaction is high.

After some time there are products. So the amount of reactant is less.

Reactions involve collisions of reactant molecules. As the reactant amount decreases, collisions between the reactants decreases. As such the rate of reaction decreases with the progress of the reaction.

Arsenate (AsO43-) is structurally and chemically similar to inorganic phosphate (PO43-), and many enzymes that act on phosphate
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

A) The effect on the net reaction catalyzed by glyceraldehyde is that

The 1-arsen0, 3-phosphoglycerate will decompose without enzymes hence no ATP will be formed in the reaction ( phosphoglycerate Kinase )

B) There will be  no conversion of ADP to ATP from the conversion of glucose to pyruvate hence No balanced overall equation can be derived

C ) Arsenate is very toxic to most organisms and it is used mostly regarded  as poisons during the formation of glycolysis, it forms  1-arsen0, 3-phosphoglycerate which  hinders the formation of ATP because it is unstable and will hydrolyze quickly, this will also lead to the reduction in oxygen in cells thereby leading to the death of cells
