Oxidation number of an atom is the charge that atom would have if the compound is composed of ions. In neutral substances that contains atoms of one element the oxidation number of an atom is zero. Thus atoms in O2, Ni2, and aluminium all have oxidation number of zero.
In this case, Ni2, the oxidation number of Ni atom is zero,
for NiO4-, assuming oxidation number of Ni is x
(x ×1) + (-2 × 4) = -1
x = + 7
Therefore, the oxidation number goes from 0 to +7
Answer:
CaS
Explanation:
calcium is Ca2+ and sulfur is S2- because the charges are equal you only need one of each atom, so the answer is CaS
.5 mol of A will be left over since 1.5 mol of A will be used for every 3 mol of B due to the 2:1 ratio established by the formula.
Answer:
D. 5.6 g/cm^3
Explanation:
On the average seismic velocity increases with increase in depth due higher the pressure and more compaction
sand and shales in the Niger Delta Basin density–velocity relationship is
P = 0.31×V^0.25
A derivation of the original Gardner equation to calculate the average densities for sands and shales in wells.
ρ = α ×V^β
where
ρ = bulk density in g/cm3,
V = P-wave velocity,
α = 0.31 for V (m/s) and 0.23 for V(ft/s) and
β = 0.25.
Such that
ρ = 0.31 ×V^0.25
So the fastest seismic velocity will be in the densest material which is D. 5.6 g/cm3
