How is the oxidation state of a transition metal determined from the chemical formula ?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.

We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.

The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.

To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:

  • The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
  • The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to  the charge on the ion.

For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻

This would be:  2x + 7(-2) = -2

                          x = +6

We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.

An aqueous solution in a 55 gallon (208 l drum), characterized by minimal buffering capacity, received 4kg of phenol and 1.5 kg
lianna [129]

An aqueous solution in a 55 gallon (208 l drum), characterized by minimal buffering capacity, received 4kg of phenol and 1.5 kg of sodium phenate. What is the ph of the solution. The pka of phenol = 9.98. Mw of phenol and sodium phenate are 94 g/mol and 116 g/mol, respectively.


Volume of solution = 55 gallons = 208.2 L [ 1 gallon = 3.78 L]

moles of phenol = mass / molar mass = 4000 g / 94 = 42.55 moles

moles of sodium phenate = mass / molar mass = 1500 / 116 = 12.93 moles

pKa of phenol = 9.98

We know that the pH of buffer is calculated using Hendersen Hassalbalch's equation

pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid]

volume is same for both the sodium phenate and phenol has we can directly take the moles of each in the formula

pH = 9.98 + log [12.93 / 42.55] = 9.46
