<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.

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

28.7664 kJ /mol

Explanation:

The expression for Clausius-Clapeyron Equation is shown below as:

\ln P = \dfrac{-\Delta{H_{vap}}}{RT} + c

Where,

P is the vapor pressure

ΔHvap  is the Enthalpy of Vaporization

R is the gas constant (8.314×10⁻³ kJ /mol K)

c is the constant.

The graph of ln P and 1/T gives a slope of - ΔHvap/ R and intercept of c.

Given :

Slope = -3.46×10³ K

So,

- ΔHvap/ R = -3.46×10³ K

<u>ΔHvap = 3.46×10³ K × 8.314×10⁻³ kJ /mol K = 28.7664 kJ /mol</u>

Answer:

B) more genetic variation

B) when the organisms produce offspring

Explanation:

More genetic variation means the species is most likely to not die out whenever the environment changes. Take a group of giraffes with varying neck lengths, for example. If the height of the trees were to change, then less of them would die of starvation.

Genes are created through reproduction. During reproduction, an organism with different genes from its parents occurs, creating more genetic variation. Additionally, mutations can also occur, resulting in genes not from either parent.
