Answer: c. +4
Explanation:
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here manganese is having an oxidation state of +4 called as cation and oxygen forms an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged to give which written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
<u>Answer:</u> The heat required for the process is 4.24 kJ
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
Given mass of benzene = 24.8 g
Molar mass of benzene = 78.11 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
To calculate the enthalpy change of the reaction, we use the equation:
where,
= amount of heat absorbed = ?
n = number of moles = 0.318 moles
= enthalpy change of the reaction = 30.7 kJ/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the heat required for the process is 4.24 kJ
