The crystals will not be oxidised since it will be underground
+5
Explanation:
The given radical is PO₄³⁻
To solve this problem, we need to understand what oxidation number entails.
The extent of the oxidation of each atom is expressed by the oxidation number.
Here are some rules for assigning them:
- Elements in an uncombined state or elements that combines with one another, their oxidation number is zero.
- The charge on an ion is its oxidation number
- In an neutral compound, algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms is zero.
- In a radical, the algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of the ions is equal to the charge on them.
Oxygen is known to have an oxidation number of -2;
PO₄³⁻
P + 4(-2) = -3
P -8 = -3
P = -3 + 8 = +5
The charge on phosphorus is +5

c. 1.5 moles of Cu will contain a total of 9.0 * 10 ^ 23 atoms.
Explanation:
To convert moles into atoms, the molar amount and number of atom is multiplied by Avagadro's number.
Avagadro's number is 6.022×
So applying the formula in the given sample:
A) 0.5×6.022×
3.01× atoms.
B) 0.75 mole of H20
O.75×6.022×
= 4.5166× atoms.
C) 1.5 moles of Cu
1.5×6.022×
= 9.033×
D). 1.5 moles of H2
1.5 × 2 × 6.022 ×
= 18.066 × atoms because H2 is 2 moles of hydrogen.
Atom is the smallest entity of matter having property of the element to which it is a part.
