<span>The problem has to do with oxidation states of the matter. The oxidation state of oxygen will always be -2 with the exception of peroxides which will have a state of -1. The overall balanced state of chemical compounds will be 0, so the oxidation state of Mn in MnO2 will be +4. The oxidation state of MnO4- will then be +7 to balance out to the negative one charge. The state change from +4 to +7 is 3, thus three electrons have to be lost in order for this to happen; a loss of a charge of -3 results in an increase of charge of 3. Oxidation is always the process of 'losing' electrons.

A negatively</span>charged ion<span> (anion) will have more Electrons than Protons. Cl 1- has one more electron than proton; 18 electrons, 17 protons. That's why its </span>charge<span> is 1-.</span>

<span>Soil is partially the result of the physical and chemical weathering of its parent rock. The minerals found in the soil were either in that parent rock, or they were formed from the weathering products of the parent rock.</span>
Answer:
Argon is an element on the periodic table. It is a member of the noble gasses, meaning that it is a monoatomic pure gas. In other words, argon gas particles are simply pure single atoms of argon. ... Finally, water is a polyatomic molecule H2O composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.
