A coefficient is a number listed before a compound or atom, telling how many of the compounds are needed so that the Law of Cons

ervation of Mass is obeyed. Given the information provided, how many iron (III) sulfide atoms are there? 4 Fe2S3

5 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. This implies that in a chemical reaction, we can only have the same number of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction equation.

If we write  4Fe2S3 it means that we have;

4 * 2 = 8 atoms of Fe

4 * 3 = 12 atoms of S

8 + 12 = 20 atoms in all

What can you tell by tracking oxidation numbers?
Alla [95]

<u>Answer</u>:

By tracking oxidation numbers we can identify the number electron in the atom

<u>Explanation</u>:

Tracking of electrons helps us to know when and how many electrons get transferred from one atom to other atom . Oxidation  referred as the “loss of one or more electrons” by an atom. When the oxidation number of an element increases, there is a loss of electrons and that element is being oxidized. Oxidation numbers are usually written with the sign (+plus or −minus) followed by the magnitude, which is the opposite of charges on ions. In their elemental stage oxidation number of an atom is zero.
