It is not good conductors of electricity or heat!
<span>The problem has to do with oxidation states of the matter. The oxidation state of oxygen will always be -2 with the exception of peroxides which will have a state of -1. The overall balanced state of chemical compounds will be 0, so the oxidation state of Mn in MnO2 will be +4. The oxidation state of MnO4- will then be +7 to balance out to the negative one charge. The state change from +4 to +7 is 3, thus three electrons have to be lost in order for this to happen; a loss of a charge of -3 results in an increase of charge of 3. Oxidation is always the process of 'losing' electrons.

This is a combination reaction. Look at the 2 elements on left and a compound on the right.
The answer is: 1.5 moles of oxygen are present.
V(O₂) = 33.6 L; volume of oxygen.
p(O₂) = 1.0 atm; pressure of oxygen.
T = 0°C; temperature.
Vm = 22.4 L/mol; molar volume at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure).
At STP one mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters of volume.
n(O₂) = V(O₂) ÷ Vm.
n(O₂) = 33.6 L ÷ 22.4 L/mol.
n(O₂) = 1.50 mol; amount of oxygen.
Answer:
If it takes more energy to break the original bonds than is released when the new bonds are formed, then the net energy of the reaction is negative. This means that energy must be pumped into the system to keep the reaction going. Such reactions are known as endothermic.
