Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
We know that the process of the oxidation of SO2 to SO3 is catalysed by NO2 gas. It occurs in two stages and i will show the balanced reaction equation of the both stages below;
Step 1
2NO2(g) + 2SO2(g) ------> 2NO(g) + 2SO3(g)
Step 2
2NO(g) + O2(g) -------> 2NO2(g)
So, the overall reaction equation is;
2SO2(g) + O2(g) ------> 2SO3(g)
Hydrogen is usually –1. This is INCORRECT. The oxidation number for H is +1.
Oxygen is usually –2. This is CORRECT.
A pure group 1 element is +1. This is INCORRECT. It does not follow. This will depend on the other elements and the overall charge.
A monatomic ion is 0. This is INCORRECT. Diatomic ion is 0.
Answer:
In ionic bonding, atoms transfer electrons to each other. Ionic bonds require at least one electron donor and one electron acceptor. In contrast, atoms with the same electronegativity share electrons in covalent bonds, because neither atom preferentially attracts or repels the shared electrons.
