Answer:

C. A Roman numeral placed after the transition metal identifies its

oxidation state.

Explanation:

A. A superscript on the transition metal identifies its oxidation state

in the formula.

This is wrong! Superscript are usually not written in formula of compound and for those that have superscripts, it refers to the oxidation number of the compound as a whole.

B. The subscript of the transition metal in the formula identifies its

oxidation state.

This is wrong! Subscripts shows how many atoms of the element is present.

C. A Roman numeral placed after the transition metal identifies its

oxidation state.

This is correct! Examples include; manganese (II) oxide, Potassium manganate (VII) etc

D. The total charge of the negative ion identifies the oxidation state

of the transition metal.

This is wrong! Because there are cases of other metals or cations being present in the compound aside the transition metal

Ksju [112]

The molar specific heat Cv = R s / 2
70.6 J/mol.K = (8.314 J/mol.K) * s / 2
So the number of degrees of freedom are:
s = 16.98 = 17

The radioactive substance cesium-137 has a half-life of 30 years. The amount At (in grams) of a sample of cesium-137 remaining a

stealth61 [152]

Answer: The amount of sample left after 20 years is 288.522 g and after 50 years is 144.26 g

Explanation:

We are given a function that calculates the amount of sample remaining after 't' years, which is:

$A_t(t)=458\times (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{30}$

For t = 20 years

Putting values in above equation:

$A_t(t)=458\times (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{20}{30}$

$A_t(t)=288.522g$

Hence, the amount of sample left after 20 years is 288.522 g

For t = 50 years

Putting values in above equation:

$A_t(t)=458\times (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{50}{30}$

$A_t(t)=144.26g$

Hence, the amount of sample left after 50 years is 144.26 g
