What is the degree of oxidation of a simple substance​

Chemistry

The oxidation state of a free element (uncombined element) is zero. For a simple (monoatomic) ion, the oxidation state is equal to the net charge on the ion. For example, Cl– has an oxidation state of -1. When present in most compounds, hydrogen has an oxidation state of +1 and oxygen an oxidation state of −2.

How is the mass of carbon related to the mole?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

Simply put, you can go from moles to grams and vice versa by using the mass of 1 mole of that substance, i.e its molar mass. For example, the molar mass of carbon is 12.011 g/mol. This means that 1 mole of carbon, or 6.022⋅1023 atoms of carbon, weigh 12.011 g.

Gases A and B are confined to a cylinder and piston and react to form product C. As the reaction occurs, the system loses 1189 J
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

The change in the internal energy of the system -878 J

Explanation:

Given;

energy lost by the system due to heat, Q = -1189 J (negative because energy was lost by the system)

Work done on the system, W = -311 J (negative because work was done on the system)

change in internal energy of the system, Δ U = ?

First law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system (ΔU) equals the net heat transfer into the system (Q) minus the net work done by the system (W).

ΔU = Q - W

ΔU = -1189 - (-311)

ΔU = -1189 + 311

ΔU = -878 J

Therefore, the change in the internal energy of the system -878 J

How many moles are in 25.2g of KMnO4?
Zolol [24]
When finding the moles in a compound you have to know the grams. In this case, 25.2 grams are given for KMnO4. To find the moles you would divide the amount of grams by the molar mass of KMnO4. The molar mass of KmnO4 is 158.034. You you would now divide 25.2 by 158.034 which is 0.15946 moles. Depending on how many decimal places the questions asks for is dependent on you. I just went with 5 significant figures.

A mole of cu atoms has the same number of atoms as a mole of he atoms. true false
Ronch [10]
True. A mole is a standard unit of measurement. It's like that riddle; "What's heavier, a pound of bricks or a pound of feathers? Neither- a pound is a pound no matter what it's made of."
