1 answer:

4 0

Geology is one of Earth Sciences, involved in the construction, properties and history of the Earth and the processes occurring in the interior and on its surface, so that it undergoes transformation. In a broader sense geology also applies to other rocky planets. Geosphere is one of the concentric layers forming part of the globe. One of them is the core of the earth, mantle of the earth and lithosphere.

Determine the oxidation states of the elements in the compounds listed. None of the oxygen-containing compounds are peroxides or

Ahat [919]

Answer :

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.

Now we have to determine the oxidation state of the elements in the compound.

(a) $H_2SO_4$

Let the oxidation state of 'S' be, 'x'

$2(+1)+x+4(-2)=0\\\\x=+6$

Hence, the oxidation state of 'S' is, (+6)

(b) $Ca(OH)_2$

Let the oxidation state of 'Ca' be, 'x'

$x+2(-2+1)=0\\\\x=+2$

Hence, the oxidation state of 'Ca' is, (+2)

(c) $BrOH$

Let the oxidation state of 'Br' be, 'x'

$x+(-2)+1=0\\\\x=+1$

Hence, the oxidation state of 'Br' is, (+1)

(d) $ClNO_2$

Let the oxidation state of 'N' be, 'x'

$-1+x+2(-2)=0\\\\x=+5$

Hence, the oxidation state of 'N' is, (+5)

(e) $TiCl_4$

Let the oxidation state of 'Ti' be, 'x'

$x+4(-1)=0\\\\x=+4$

Hence, the oxidation state of 'Ti' is, (+4)

(f) $NaH$

Let the oxidation state of 'Na' be, 'x'

$x+(-1)=0\\\\x=+1$

Hence, the oxidation state of 'Na' is, (+1)

H E L P Nitrogen is collected in gas jar by the downward displacement of water why explain it <br>

Feliz [49]

Answer:

This is because, nitrogen is less dense than water, with a density of 1000 g/L, it is sparingly soluble in water and it is easy to differentiate between it and water.

What is mass write a five sentence paragraph

zepelin [54]

Mass is a coherent, typical large body of matter with no definite shape. Another way to describe matter is a very heavy or large object.Matter can also be described with length. This is how i know matter is a very large length or weight. (Hope this helped) :)
