Answer:In regards to writing the formula, we know that magnesium has a charge of 1+ and sulfate, SO4, has a charge of 1-. Sulfate is a polyatomic ion so the charge of the whole thing is (SO4)1-. When you combine them you end up with MgSO4 and the "heptahydrate" is seven water molecules.
Explanation:
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Matter is anything that has weight and occupies space. Weight is synonymous to mass
First find the oxidation states of the various atoms:
<span>in Cr2O2 2- Cr @ +1; In NH3 N @ +3; in CrO3 Cr @ +3, N2 N @ 0 </span>
<span>Note that N gained electrons, ie, was reduced; Cr was oxidized </span>
<span>Now there is a problem, because B has NH4+ which the problem did not, and is not balanced, showing e- in/out </span>
<span>B.NH4+ → N2 </span>
<span>Which of the following is an oxidation half-reaction? </span>
<span>A.Sn 2+ →Sn 4+ + 2e- </span>
<span>Sn lost electrons so it got oxidized</span>
Answer:
Potassium
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1
Explanation:
The atom having only one electron its outermost shell must belong to an element in group one of the periodic table.
Having noted that, we proceed to find out what element in group one that has the atom just described in the question.
That atom must belong to an element in the fourth period. The only group 1 element in the fourth period is potassium.
The electron configuration of potassium is;
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1
