<span>F can only have oxidation number of -1
The overall compound has an oxidation number of -1
You have 6 Fs, so 6(-1) = -6
charge from F
 X = oxidation number of P
 x + (-6) = -1
solve for
x = +5</span>

What is the pH of a<br> 2.5 x 10-5 M solution<br> of HCI?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 4.60.

Explanation:

The pH gives us an idea of the acidity or basicity of a solution. More precisely, it indicates the concentration of H30 + ions present in said solution. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14: from 0 to 7 corresponds to acid solutions, 7 neutral solutions and between 7 and 14 basic solutions. It is calculated as:

pH = -log (H30 +)

pH= -log (2,5 x 10-5)

<em>pH=4.60</em>

What is the oxidation number of chlorine in HClO4?
Elza [17]

CIO4-=-1

CI=4O=-1

O has a 2- oxidation change so

CI+4(-2)=-1

CI+(-8)=-1

CI=-1+8=7

So the oxidation number of chlorine is 7 in this case
