The oxidation number of H is -1.
Sum of the oxidation numbers in each element =
charge of the complex
CaH₂ has 1 Ca atom and 2H atoms. The charge of
the complex is zero. Let’s say Oxidation number of H is "a".
Then,
<span> (+2)
+ 2 x a = 0 </span>
<span> +2 + 2a = 0</span>
2a = -2
a = -1
Hence, the oxidation number of Hydrogen atom in CaH₂ is -1
If its one part magnesium and two parts hydroxide id say 88g of magnesium
Answer:
N = n× l
N = number of entities
n= moles
l = Avogadro's constant = 6.023 × 10^23
3.01 × 10^ 23 = n * 6.023 × 10^23
n = 3.01 × 10^23/6.023 × 10^23
n= 0.5moles
Molar mass = mass/ number of moles
Molar mass = 56
mass = 56 × 0.5
= 28g
Hope this helps.
