This problem can be solved by using oxidation states. The oxidation state is based on the electrons an atom loses or gain, or appears to use when forming compounds.To find the formula for Copper (I) Sulfide, we have to first consider the individual ions that come together to form it. Copper (I) is an ion of copper that has a charge of +1, i.e $Cu^{+}$ . Sulfur is an element in group 6 of the periodic table. The sulfur ion has a charge of -2, i.e $S^{2-}$ . To form Copper (I) Sulfide, which is electrically neutral, we need 2 Copper (I) ions and 1 sulfur ion.

$Cu_2S= 2Cu^+ 1S^-^2= 2(+1) + (-2) = 0$ .

The reaction is represented by the equation below

$2Cu^{+} +S^{2-}-->Cu_2S$ .

The correct answer is (C)

Since the frequency of sound heard is higher than actual frequency, the ambulance is moving towards you!

The frequency of sound waves as heard from a distance for a sound wave coming towards one at v₀ m/s and whose real frequency is f₀ is given by

+f = f₀/[1 - (v₀/v)]

+f = frequency of sound as heard from the distance away = 8.61 KHz

f₀ = real frequency of sound = 7.87 KHz

v₀ = velocity at which the sound source is moving towards the reference point = ?

v = velocity of sound waves = 343 m/s

8.61 = 7.87/(1 - (v₀/v))

1 - (v₀/343) = 0.9141

v₀/343 = 1 - 0.9141 = 0.0859

v₀ = 343 × 0.0859 = 29.48 m/s = 64.945 miles per hour
