Answer: True

Explanation:

An ester refers to the class of organic compounds which react with water in order to produce organic acids, inorganic acids or alcohol. They are usually gotten from carboxylic acids.

A method of favoring the formation of an ester is to add excess acetic acid. Therefore, the above statement is true.

steposvetlana [31]
We are told we have an oxyacid of the formula HOFO. We will assume the atoms are in this order and will draw a proper lewis structure for this compound by first drawing bonds between each of the 4 atoms and then place the remaining electron pairs on each atom:
      ..    ..    ..
H - O - F - O:
      ··   ··    ··
We can calculate the formal charge of an atom using the following formula:

Formal charge = [# of valence electrons] - [# of non-bonded electrons + # of bonds]

H: Formal charge = [1]-[0+1] = 0

O: Formal charge = [6]-[4+2] = 0

F: Formal charge = [7]-[4+2] = +1

O: Formal charge = [6]-[6+1] = -1

As we can see the overall charge of the molecule is neutral since the fluorine as a +1 charge and the oxygen a -1 charge.

6. What is the oxidation number for the atom indicated in the following compounds.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

a. +6;

b. +5;

c. +3.

Explanation:

Start with elements with well-known oxidation states.

The oxidation state on oxygen O in compounds is mostly -2. Common exceptions include:

  • -1 in peroxides and
  • positive when oxygen bonds to fluorine.

The oxidation state on group 1 metals (Li, Na, K, etc.) in compounds is mostly +1.

The oxidation state on group 2 metals (Be, Mg, Ca, etc.) in compounds is mostly +2.

Barium Ba is a group 2 metal. The oxidation state on Ba in the compound BaSO₄ is expected to be +2.

The oxidation state on hydrogen H in compounds is mostly +1. The oxidation state on H might be negative when it is bonded to metals.  

The oxidation state on halogens (F, Cl, Br, etc.) is mostly -1. The oxidation state may vary when the halogen is bonded to oxygen or another halogen element.

Compounds are neutral. The oxidation state on all atoms in a compound shall add up to 0. Both BaSO₄ and HClO₂ are neutral.

<h3>BaSO₄</h3>

Oxidation states:

  • Ba: +2;
  • The oxidation state on sulfur S is to be determined;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on S be x.

2 + x + 4 × (-2) = 0;

x = 6.

Hence, the oxidation state on S in BaSO₄ is +6.

<h3>HClO₂</h3>

Oxidation states:

  • H: +1;
  • Cl here is bonded to oxygen. The oxidation state on chlorine Cl is to be determined;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on Cl be x.

<em>Refer to the equation in BaSO₄ as an example. Try setting up the equation on your own. </em>

x = 3.

Hence, the oxidation state on Cl is +3.

<h3>PO₄³⁻</h3>

Ions carry charge. Oxidation states on atoms in an ion shall add up to the charge of the ion. The superscript of an ion shows its charge. The superscript 3- in the phosphate ion shows that the ion carries a charge of -3.

Oxidation states:

  • The oxidation state on P is to be found;
  • O: -2.

Let the oxidation state on P be x.

x + 4 × (-2) = -3;

x = 5.

Hence, the oxidation state on P is +5.

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

It is a covalent bond because both carbon and oxygen are nonmetals. The formula will be CO² because the electrons between the atoms are being shared equally.
