Answer:

One positive charge

Explanation:

In a neutral atom, the number of positive and negative particles are equal. This leaves the atom with a net charge of zero, 0.

When the number of protons in an atom is greater than the number of electrons, the atom becomes positively charged. When an atom loses an electron when a bond wants to form, it has a net positive charge.

The number of electrons lost or gained determines the charge.

What is the oxidation state of each element in the species Mn(ClO4)3?

gayaneshka [121]

The oxidation state of the compound Mn (ClO4)3 is to be determined in this problem. For oxygen, the charge is 2-, the total considering its number of atoms is -24. Mn has a charge of +3. TO compute for Mn, we must achieve zero charge overall hence 3+3x-24=0 where x is the Cl charge. Cl charge, x is +7.

A slender uniform rod 100.00 cm long is used as a meter stick. two parallel axes that are perpendicular to the rod are considere

kvv77 [185]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

The second axis is at the centroid of the rod.
The length of the rod is L = 100 cm = 1 m

The first axis is located at 20 cm = 0.2 m from the centroid.
Let m = the mass of the rod.

The moment of inertia about the centroid (the 2nd axis) is
$I_{g} = \frac{mL^{2}}{12} = (m \, kg) \frac{(1 \, m)^{2}}{12} = \frac{m}{12} \, kg-m^{2}$

According to the parallel axis theorem, the moment of inertia about the first axis is
$I_{1} = I_{g} + (m \, kg)(0.2 m)^{2} \\ I_{1} = \frac{m}{12}+ 0.04m = 0.1233m \, kg-m^{2}$

The ratio of the moment of inertia through the 2nd axis (centroid) to that through the 1st axis is
$\frac{I_{g}}{I_{1}} = \frac{0.0833m}{0.1233m} =0.6756$

Answer: 0.676
