What is the oxidation state of S in HSO4^2-? (A.P.E.X)

1 answer:

7 0

I think there is a typo because I've never seen HSO4 2- before in my life. It should be HSO4-. For that, H is 1+ and each Oxygen is 2-0 totaling 8-. So the oxidation state of sulfur +1 - 8 = 7

So the oxidation state of sulfur is +6

Chemists use activity series to determine whether which type of reaction will occur?

ruslelena [56]

Single replacement reactions. For example copper is more reactive than silver. So a copper wire in a silver solution will cause the silver to become a metal again.

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is given here :

The equilibrium constant for the reaction is $1.1\times 10^6$ M.

$HONO(aq)+CN^- (aq)\rightleftharpoons HCN(aq)+ONO^-(aq)$

This value indicates that

A. $CN^-$ is a stronger base than $ONO^-$

B. HCN is a stronger acid than HONO

C. The conjugate base of HONO is $ONO^-$

D. The conjugate acid of CN- is HCN

Answer: A. $CN^-$ is a stronger base than $ONO^-$

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is the ratio of product of the concentration of products to the product of concentration of reactants.

When $K_{p}>1$ ; the reaction is product favoured.

When $K_{p};$ ; the reaction is reactant favored.

$When K_{p}=1$ ; the reaction is in equilibrium.

As, $K_p>>1$ , the reaction will be product favoured and as it is a acid base reaction where $HONO$ acts as acid by donating $H^+$ ions and $CN^-$ acts as base by accepting $H^+$

Thus $HONO$ is a strong acid thus $ONO^-$ will be a weak conjugate base and $CN^-$ is a strong base which has weak $HCN$ conjugate acid.

Thus the high value of K indicates that $CN^-$ is a stronger base than $ONO^-$
