We need to keep in mind that the compound is neutral.
H2SO3
2(+1)+S+3(-2)=0 (since its neutral)
2+S-6=0
S-4=0
S=4
Therefore the oxidation number for sulfur is +4.
You should take note that the question is about stability. A compound is stable if it does not easily react with other elements. Hence, its reactivity must be low. As you move down the group, reactivity decreases. So, the halide at the very bottom is the least reactive. It would then be logical that the most stable conjugate base is I⁻ and the least stable conjugate base is the most reactive which is F⁻.
Answer:
30.8 g of water are produced
Explanation:
First of all we need the equation for the production of water:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
2 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mol of oxygen in order to produce 2 moles of water.
As we assume, the oxygen in excess, we determine the moles of H₂.
1.03ₓ10²⁴ molecules . 1 mol/ 6.02ₓ10²³ molecules = 1.71 moles
Ratio is 2:2, so 1.71 moles will produce 1.71 moles of water
Let's convert the moles to mass: 1.71 mol . 18g / 1mol = 30.8 g of water are produced
The slight positive charges on the hydrogen atoms in water molecules attract the slight negative charges on the oxygen atoms of the other water molecules
The answer is A. planning a hiking trip
A topographical map would not help studying plant growth over time unless you are looking for a better altitude to plant said plants.
A topographical map would not help studying rainfall for one year unless your location was <em>really</em> so high or low that it affected your weather
And most of all, a topographical map would not be useful for planning a cuise across the Atlantic Ocean because the elevation of the sea is zero!
A topographical map <em>would</em> be useful for planning a hiking trip because there are many factors and details that a hike should have. Which includes height, distance, paths, and elevation.
