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.

can someone please explain me electronic arrangement of different elements please tomorrow is my paper i neEd help ASAP !!!!!!!
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

This list of electron configurations of elements contains all the elements in increasing order of atomic number.

To save room, the configurations are in noble gas shorthand. This means part of the electron configuration has been replaced with the element symbol of the noble gas symbol. Look up the electronic configuration of that noble gas and include that value before the rest of the configuration.

Determine the number of ions produced in the dissociation of the compound listed. AlF3
scoray [572]
Answer is: the number of ions produced in the dissociation of aluminium fluoride is 4.
<span>
Chemical dissociation of aluminium fluoride in water:
AlF</span>₃(aq) → Al³⁺(aq) + 3F⁻(aq).<span>
There are four ions, one aluminium cation and three fluoride anions.
Aluminium has oxidation +3, because it lost three electrons, to have electron configuration as noble gas neon and fluorine has oxidation -1, because it gain one electron to </span>have electron configuration as noble gas neon.

How much 2.0 M phenylmagnesium chloride solution is needed if adding 2.9 mmol of Grignard reagent to a reaction? Your answer sho
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1,45 mL

Explanation:

The Grignard reaction is a very important organometallic chemical reaction where the Grignard reagent ( alkyl, vinyl, or aryl-magnesium halides) acts as nucleophile in order to the formation of Carbon-Carbon bonds.

In the problem, the phenylmagnesium chloride is the grignard reagent. The volume of 2.0 M phenylmagnesium chloride solution you need to add 2.9 mmol is:

2,9 mmol × \frac{1mL}{2,0mM} = <em>1,45 mL</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

What happens to the ionizing rate if the steps of ionizing polyprotic acid increases?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

<h3>An acid that contains more than one ionizable proton is a polyprotic acid. The protons of these acids ionize in steps. The differences in the acid ionization constants for the successive ionizations of the protons in a polyprotic acid usually vary by roughly five orders of magnitude.</h3>
