Fixed vs Variable Oxidation is given below.
Explanation:
1.In its compounds, hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1, except. hydrides where the. oxidation number of hydrogen is -1. In their compounds, the metals with fixed oxidation states have the oxidation number that. corresponds with the fixed oxidation number.
A variable oxidation state is a value that determines the charge of the atom depending on certain conditions.
2. Oxidation state of elements is considered to be of the most important in the study of chemistry. For some elements, this figure is constant known as fixed oxidation , while for others it is variable is called variable oxidation state.
3. MgCl2 : magnesium is in Group IIA and all elements in Group IIA have fixed oxidation numbers of +2
FeCl2 : iron has a variable oxidation number of either +2 or +3 and is not fixed
Explanation:
(1) Nuclear reactions involve a change in an atom's nucleus, usually producing a different element. Chemical reactions, on the other hand, involve only a rearrangement of electrons and do not involve changes in the nuclei. ... (3) Rates of chemical reactions are influenced by temperature and catalysts.
Dmitri Mendeleev, he realized that the physical and chemical properties of elements were related to their atomic mass and arranged them into groups (columns)
They are called meteorologists. i hope this helped.
