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.

At what temperature would a 1.15 m NaCl solution freeze, given that the van't Hoff factor for NaCl is 1.9? Kf for water is 1.86
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

-4.1°C

Explanation:

The freezing-point depression (ΔTf) is a colligative property that can be calculated using the following expression:

ΔTf = i × Kf × m

where,

i: van't Hoff factor

Kf: freezing-point depression constant

m: molality

ΔTf = 1.9 × 1.86°C/m × 1.15 m = 4.1 °C

The freezing-point of pure water is 0°C. The freezing-point of this solution is:

0°C - 4.1°C = -4.1°C

What is 30-9x2*2-21-4+4
IgorC [24]
Answer:
9 (1-2x²)

Explanation:
The given expression is:
30 - 9x²*2 - 21 - 4 + 4
The first step is to compute the multiplication. This will give:
30 - 18x² - 21 - 4 + 4
Then, we will add like terms as follows:
(30-21-4+4) - 18x²
= 9 - 18x²
Finally, we can take the 9 as a common factor from both terms, this will give:
9 (1-2x²)

Hope this helps :)

HELPPPP !!! oxygen calculation to find neutrons
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Oxygen has 8 neutrons

Explanation:

We know that cause the atomic number says how many protons does the element has, so in this case is eight, and in the mass number, we have the number of protons+neutrons, in this case is 16. Then, as we know that oxygen has eight protons with the atomic number, we would do 16-8 protons= 8 neutrons.

Check: Atomic number is 16= 8 protons + 8 neutrons
