Answer:

Option d. 0.10 m Cr₂(SO₄)₃

Explanation:

Formula for the osmotic pressure is determined as:

π = M . R . T . i

So you have to take account the i (Van't Hoff factor, numbers of ions dissolved)

CH₄N₂O → 0.35 m

Urea is an organic compound, so the i value is 1

H₂O → The i is also 1

Zn(CH₃COO)₂ → 0.15 m

Zync acetate can be dissociated:

Zn(CH₃COO)₂ → 1Zn²⁺ + 2CH₃COO⁻

In this case, the i is 3. (you see, the stoichiometry of ions)

Cr₂(SO₄)₃ → 0.10 m

Chromium sulfate is dissociated:

Cr₂(SO₄)₃ → 2Cr³⁺ + 3SO₄⁻²

i = 5

BaI₂ → 0.16 m

BaI₂ → 1Ba²⁺ + 2I⁻

i = 3

6. What is the oxidation number for the atom indicated in the following compounds.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

a. +6;

b. +5;

c. +3.

Explanation:

Start with elements with well-known oxidation states.

The oxidation state on oxygen O in compounds is mostly -2. Common exceptions include:

-1 in peroxides and
positive when oxygen bonds to fluorine.

The oxidation state on group 1 metals (Li, Na, K, etc.) in compounds is mostly +1.

The oxidation state on group 2 metals (Be, Mg, Ca, etc.) in compounds is mostly +2.

Barium Ba is a group 2 metal. The oxidation state on Ba in the compound BaSO₄ is expected to be +2.

The oxidation state on hydrogen H in compounds is mostly +1. The oxidation state on H might be negative when it is bonded to metals.

The oxidation state on halogens (F, Cl, Br, etc.) is mostly -1. The oxidation state may vary when the halogen is bonded to oxygen or another halogen element.

Compounds are neutral. The oxidation state on all atoms in a compound shall add up to 0. Both BaSO₄ and HClO₂ are neutral.

Oxidation states:

Ba: +2;
The oxidation state on sulfur S is to be determined;
O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on S be x.

2 + x + 4 × (-2) = 0;

x = 6.

Hence, the oxidation state on S in BaSO₄ is +6.

Oxidation states:

H: +1;
Cl here is bonded to oxygen. The oxidation state on chlorine Cl is to be determined;
O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on Cl be x.

<em>Refer to the equation in BaSO₄ as an example. Try setting up the equation on your own. </em>

x = 3.

Hence, the oxidation state on Cl is +3.

Ions carry charge. Oxidation states on atoms in an ion shall add up to the charge of the ion. The superscript of an ion shows its charge. The superscript 3- in the phosphate ion shows that the ion carries a charge of -3.

Oxidation states:

The oxidation state on P is to be found;
O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on P be x.

x + 4 × (-2) = -3;

x = 5.

Hence, the oxidation state on P is +5.

The fact that same molecules of matter have been around for years is supported by

Elza [17]

Answer:

The law of definite proportions

Explanation:

The law of definite proportions states that atoms combine in a molecule in a specific molar ratio or specific stoichiometry. For example, it's proved that regardless of the quantity we take, two hydrogen atoms always combine with one oxygen atom to form a water molecule.

Similarly, ionic substances follow the same pattern. Since the net charge of ionic salts should be equal to 0 and each element has a definite number of valence electrons in its shell all the time, the ions combine in a way, so that cations balance the charge of anions.

Essentially, the law of definite proportions is applicable and will be applicable in the future, since we know that each element has a fixed number of valence electrons in its ground state.

How do atoms in molecules bond? <br> plz answer I will give brainliest

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Via covalent bonds

Explanation:

Atoms in molecules are bonded together via covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are bonds that are formed by sharing of the valence electrons between two atoms.

The atoms can be of the same kind or of different kinds.

In most molecules, the two atoms are connected by sharing of their valence electrons.
This way, each atom can attain stability by becoming isoelectric with the nearest noble gas.
Some molecules are monoatomic, some are polyatomic.

The best way (in my opinion) is to put it in a table or spreadsheet.
