The fomula is NH4 (1+)
There are only two elements N and H.
As per oxidation state rules, the most electronegative element will have a negative oxidation state and the other element will have a positive oxidation state.
N is more electronative than H, so H will have a positive oxidation state and nitrogen will have a negative oxidation state.
You can also use the rule that states the hydrogen mostly has 1+ oxidation state,except when it is bonded to metals.
In conclusion the oxidation state of H in NH4 (1+) is 1+.
Now you must know that the sum of the oxidations states equals the charge of the ion, which in this case is 1+.
That implies that 4* (1+) + x = 1+
=> x = (1+) - 4(+) = 3-
Answer: the oxidation state of N is 3-, that is the option b.
If you meant the word silicon then yes, silicon is a semiconductor and its ability to conduct gets better as the temp. rises
In the first situation: the mechanism of covection is the main form of heat transfer when warm air from a heater moves around and upward.
In the case of the metal pan the mechanism of heat transfer is conduction.
In the case of sunburn the mechanism is radiation.
In the case of an ice cube melting in a hand, conduction is the most important mechanism.
Answer:
I think the answer to the question is number 2 "make your own non-toxic cleaning products using common kitchen ingredients"
Yes it does, its derived from the greek name for beryl, or beryllo
