Rules:
1) The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.
2)The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.
3) The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.
4) The sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a neutral compound is 0.
KCl is an ionic compound. Consists of K+ ions and Cl- ions.
Oxidation of K= +1 (rules 1 and 2)
Oxidation of Cl= -1 (rules 1 and 3)
Rule 4 also applies- +1 + (-1)= 0- a neutral compound
Hope this helps :)
Explanation:
Given that the mass of coffee in the cup = 140 g
Final temperature = 
Initial temperature = 
Let us assume the specific heat of coffee is equal to that of water = 4.184
Temperature change = T(final) - T(initial) = (20 - 75 )
=- 55 
-Heat given out by coffee = heat absorbed by the surroundings
Heat released into the surroundings =-(
)
= 
= 32,217 J
B. No since rusting is a chemical change it does not follow the law of conservation of mass.
