Answer:

(a) [Fe(CN)₆]⁴⁻ - Hexacyanoferrate(II) ion

Central metal atom -  Fe

Oxidation state of central metal Fe = +2

(b) [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ : Hexamminecobalt(III) ion

Central metal atom -  Co

Oxidation state of central metal Co = +3

(c) [Co(CN)₅(OH₂)]²⁻ : Aquapentacyanidocobalt(III) ion

Central metal atom -  Co

Oxidation state of central metal Co = +3

(d) [Co(NH₃)₅(SO₄)]⁺ :  Pentaamminesulfatocobalt(III) ion

Central metal atom -  Co

Oxidation state of central metal Co = +3

Explanation:

Oxidation number, also known as oxidation state, describes the number of electrons lost or gained by a chemical element.

(a) [Fe(CN)₆]⁴⁻ - Hexacyanoferrate(II) ion

Central metal atom -  Fe

Let the oxidation state of Fe = x

Charge on CN⁻ ligand = (-1)

x + (-1) × 6 = -4

⇒ x = -4 + 6 = +2

<u>Oxidation state of Fe: x = +2</u>

(b) [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ : Hexamminecobalt(III) ion

Central metal atom -  Co

Let the oxidation state of Co = x

Charge on NH₃ ligand = 0

x + (0) × 6 = +3

⇒ x = +3

<u>Oxidation state of Co: x = +3</u>

(c) [Co(CN)₅(OH₂)]²⁻ : Aquapentacyanidocobalt(III) ion

Central metal atom -  Co

Let the oxidation state of Co = x

Charge on CN⁻ ligand = -1

Charge on H₂O ligand = 0

x + (-1) × 5 + 0 × 1 = -2

⇒ x = +3

<u>Oxidation state of Co: x = +3</u>

(d) [Co(NH₃)₅(SO₄)]⁺ :  Pentaamminesulfatocobalt(III) ion

Central metal atom -  Co

Let the oxidation state of Co = x

Charge on NH₃ ligand = 0

Charge on SO₄²⁻ ligand = -2

x + (0) × 5 + (-2) × 1 = +1

⇒ x = +3

<u>Oxidation state of Co: x = +3</u>

Do birds with longer or shorter wings fly faster? Write a hypothesis
konstantin123 [22]
<span>I believe that birds with longer wings will fly faster as longer wings will allow the birds to push away more air and create more force allowing them to move at a greater velocity. I believe that wing length is one of the greatest determinants in overall speed for a flying species of animal.</span>

How many grams of F2 gas are there in a 5.00-L cylinder at 4.00 × 10^3 mm Hg and 23°C?
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

41.17g

Explanation:

We are given the following parameters for Flourine gas(F2).

Volume = 5.00L

Pressure = 4.00× 10³mmHG

Temperature =23°c

The formula we would be applying is Ideal gas law

PV = nRT

Step 1

We find the number of moles of Flourine gas present.

T = 23°C

Converting to Kelvin

= °C + 273k

= 23°C + 273k

= 296k

V = Volume = 5.00L

R = 0.08206L.atm/mol.K

P = Pressure (in atm)

In the question, the pressure is given as 4.00 × 10³mmHg

Converting to atm(atmosphere)

1 mmHg = 0.00131579atm

4.00 × 10³ =

Cross Multiply

4.00 × 10³ × 0.00131579atm

= 5.263159 atm

The formula for number of moles =

n = PV/RT

n = 5.263159 atm × 5.00L/0.08206L.atm/mol.K × 296K

n = 1.0834112811moles

Step 2

We calculate the mass of Flourine gas

The molar mass of Flourine gas =

F2 = 19 × 2

= 38 g/mol

Mass of Flourine gas = Molar mass of Flourine gas × No of moles

Mass = 38g/mol × 1.0834112811moles

41.169628682grams

Approximately = 41.17 grams.
