Answer:

Explanation:

A) In H2SO4, the oxidation number of H is , that of S is , and that of O is .

In H₂SO₄ the oxidation sate of H is +1 (H₂= +2) that of sulfur is +6 and O is -2 (O₄= -8)

In SO₄ the oxidation state is -2, because negative and positive charges are not equal. That's why two hydrogen atoms are attached with one SO₄ to balance the charge.

B) In CaSO4, the oxidation number of Ca is , that of S is . , and that of O is .

In CaSO₄ the oxidation sate of Ca is +2 that of sulfur is +6 and O is -2 (O₄= -8)

In SO₄ the oxidation state is -2, because negative and positive charges are not equal. That's why one calcium atoms is attached with one SO₄ to balance the charge.

C) In HF, the oxidation number of H is , and that of F is .

In HF the oxidation state of hydrogen is +1 and that of fluorine is -1. Both form ionic compound.

Who much the velocity of a body when it travels 600m in 5 min

Gwar [14]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

Applying the formulae of velocity,

V = d/t............. Equation 1

Where V = Velocity of the body, d = distance, t = time

From the question,

Given: d = 600 m, t = 5 minutes = (5×60) = 300 seconds.

Substitute these values into equation 1

V = 600/300

V = 2 m/s.

Hence the velocity of the body when it travels is 2 m/s

Which type of intermolecular attractive force operates between (part A) all molecules, (part B) polar molecules, (part C) the hy

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

PART A: The LDF occurs between all molecules. Dispersion forces result from shifting electron clouds, which cause weak, temporary dipole.

PART B: Dipole dipole operates only between polar molecules. This is when two polar molecules get near each other and the positively charged portion of the molecule is attracted to the negatively charged portion of another molecule.

PART C: Dipole dipole and in some cases hydrogen bonding operate between the hydrogen atom of a polar bond and a nearby small electronegative atom. Only if the atom bonded to it were F, O or N it would be hydrogen bonding. Otherwise it is dipole dipole.

What gas law applies to aerosol cans being stored in a cool place?

svetlana [45]

Don't really know if this is what your asking but P1/T1= P2/T2 should show how the pressure varies with temperature (V is left out because it's constant since the gas is trapped in an aerosol can). As the temperature rises the pressure rises and if it gets too high then the can explodes, which is why it should be stored in a cool place. There's also PV=nRT might be kind of hard to find moles (n) though.

Ionic compounds involve a (share, tranfer) of electrons and typically involve atoms that have (Large, similar, very different) e

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

2 Transfer; very different

Explanation:

Ionic compound are compound that are formed from transfer of electron. The cations donate the electron(s) while the anion receive the electron(s). The compound possess a positively charged end and a negatively charge end. Example of ionic compound is NaCl . The sodium donates one electron to the chlorine to fulfill the octet rule. The sodium atom becomes positively charged as it donate electron to the chlorine atom. The chlorine atom becomes negatively charged as it receive electron from Sodium atom.

The atoms that are involve in forming ionic compound have very different electronegativity . Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom to attract a bond pair of electron. For example the NaCl compound, the two atom has verse differences in the electronegativity. Cl atom is far more electronegative than Sodium atom.
