Answer : The oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0).
Explanation :
Oxidation number or oxidation state : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.
Oxidation numbers are generally written with the sign (+) and (-) first and then the magnitude.
Rules for Oxidation Numbers are :
The oxidation number of a free element is always zero.
The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.
The oxidation number of Hydrogen (H) is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electronegative elements.
The oxidation number of oxygen (O) in compounds is usually -2.
The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.
The sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atoms in a neutral compound is zero.
The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge of the ion.
The given chemical reaction is:
In the given reaction, the oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0) because it is a free element and the oxidation state of Mg in is (+2).
Hence, the oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0).
0.3268 moles of PC15 can be produced from 58.0 g of Cl₂ (and excess
P4)
<h3>How to calculate moles?</h3>The balanced chemical equation is
The mass of clorine is m() = 58.0 g
The amount of clorine is n() = m(
)/M(
) = 58/70.906 = 0.817 mol
The stoichiometric reaction,shows that
10 moles of yield 4 moles of
;
0.817 of yield x moles of
n() = 4*0.817/10 = 0.3268 mol

a. 381.27 m/s
b. the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide = 2.5 faster than nitrogen triiodide
<h3>Further explanation</h3>Given
T = 100 + 273 = 373 K
Required
a. the gas speedi
b. The rate of effusion comparison
Solution
a.
Average velocities of gases can be expressed as root-mean-square averages. (V rms)
R = gas constant, T = temperature, Mm = molar mass of the gas particles
From the question
R = 8,314 J / mol K
T = temperature
Mm = molar mass, kg / mol
Molar mass of Sulfur dioxide = 64 g/mol = 0.064 kg/mol
b. the effusion rates of two gases = the square root of the inverse of their molar masses:
M₁ = molar mass sulfur dioxide = 64
M₂ = molar mass nitrogen triodide = 395
the rate of effusion of sulfur dioxide = 2.5 faster than nitrogen triodide
