Why does iron have no oxidation state corresponds to loss of all it's valence electrons?

Chemistry

olganol [36]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

When an element loses an electron, its oxidation number increases.

Explanation:

The oxidation number of an element indicates the hypothetical charge of an atom in a compound. It is hypothetical because, in the context of a compound, the elements may not necessarily be ionic. When the number of electrons associated with an atom changes, its oxidation number also changes. When an element loses an electron, its oxidation number increases.

An unknown compound contains 75.69% carbon, 8.80% hydrogen, and 15.51% oxygen by mass. A mass spectrometry analysis reveals that
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Molecular formula is C₂₆H₃₆O₄

Explanation:

The compound is 75.69 % C, 8.80 % H and 15.51 % O. This data means, that in 100 g of compound we have 75.69 g, 15.51 g and 8.80 g of, C, O and H, respectively. We know the molar mass of the compound, so we can work to solve the moles of each element.

In 100 g of compound we have 75.69 g C, 15.51 g O and 8.80 g H

In 412 g of compound we would have:

(412 . 75.69) / 100 = 311.8 of C

(412 . 15.51) / 100 = 63.9 g of O

(412 . 8.80) / 100 = 36.2 g of H

Now, we can determine the moles of each, that are contained in 1 mol of compound.

312 g / 12 g/mol 26 C

64 g / 16 g/mol = 4 O

36 g / 1 g/mol = 36 H

Molecular formula is C₂₆H₃₆O₄

Claim The student hopes the samples are gold, which has a density of 19.3 g/cm3 . A local geologist suggested that samples might
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Pyrite.

Explanation:

In this case, for the given samples, we compute the densities considering that the volume of each sample is computed by the difference between the volume of the water + sample and the volume of water:

\rho_1=\frac{50.25g}{(60.3-50.1)mL}=4.92g/mL\\ \\\rho_2=\frac{63.56g}{(62.5-49.8)mL}=5.01g/mL\\\\\rho_3=\frac{g}{(61.5-50.2)mL}=5.10g/mL\\\\\rho_4=\frac{55.35g}{(56.7-45.6)mL}=4.99g/mL\\\\\rho_5=\frac{74.92g}{(65.3-50.3)mL}=4.99g/mL\\\\\rho_6=\frac{67.78g}{(60.8-47.5)mL}=5.10g/mL

Therefore, since the density of the samples are closer to the density of pyrite (5.01 g/cm³) we conclude that the samples are more like to be pyrite.

Best regards.
