Answer:

24.58 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of an object = 55 mph

We need to find the equivalent unit in m/s

We know that,

1 mile = 1609 m

1 hour = 3600 s

So,

55\ mph=\dfrac{55\times 1609\ m}{3600\ s}\\\\=24.58\ m/s

So, the required speed is 24.58 m/s.

How is the oxidation state of a transition metal determined from the chemical formula ?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.

We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.

The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.

To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:

  • The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
  • The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to  the charge on the ion.

For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻

This would be:  2x + 7(-2) = -2

                          x = +6

We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.

never [62]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A. Constitutional or structural isomers have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

B. Conformational isomers are compounds having the same atom to atom connectivity but differ by rotation about one or more single bonds.

C. Stereo isomers are compounds having the same molecular mass and atom to atom connectivity but different arrangement of atoms and groups in space.

I. Enantiomers are stereo isomers (optical isomers particularly) that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

II. Diasteromers are optical isomers that are not mirror images of each other.

Both diasteromers and enantiomers are types of optical isomers which in turn is one of the types of stereo isomers.

Stereo isomers differ from conformational isomers in that the arrangement of atoms in stereo isomers is permanent while conformational isomers results from free rotations in molecules about single bonds.
