What is water oxidation number

Chemistry
1 answer:
-Dominant- [34]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The formula for water is . The oxidation number of hydrogen is +1. Since there are two of them, the hydrogen atoms contribute to a charge of +2. The water molecule is neutral; therefore, the oxygen must have an oxidation number of to balance the charge.

Answer and work for this problem
MArishka [77]
We can write the balanced equation for the synthesis reaction as 
     H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g)

We use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and hydrogen gas H2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2 needed:
     mass of H2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl) * 
                           (2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2)                        
                        = 4.056 g H2

We also use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and chlorine gas CL2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2:
     mass of CL2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol Cl2 / 2 mol HCl) *
                             (70.91 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2)
                          = 142.4 g Cl2 

Therefore, we need 4.056 grams of hydrogen gas and 142.4 grams of chlorine gas to produce 146.4 grams of hydrogen chloride gas.

II. Ionic Equations
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Complete ionic: \begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} \, (aq) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \\ & \rm \to 2\, AgCl\, (s) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-}\, (aq)\end{aligned}.

Net ionic: \begin{aligned}& \rm Ag^{+}\, (aq) + Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}.

Explanation:

Start by identifying species that exist as ions. In general, such species include:

  • Soluble salts.
  • Strong acids and strong bases.

All four species in this particular question are salts. However, only three of them are generally soluble in water: \rm AgNO_3, \rm CaCl_2, and \rm Ca(NO_3)_2. These three salts will exist as ions:

  • Each \rm AgNO_3\, (aq) formula unit will exist as one \rm Ag^{+} ion and one \rm {NO_3}^{-} ion.
  • Each \rm CaCl_2 formula unit will exist as one \rm Ca^{2+} ion and two \rm Cl^{-} ions (note the subscript in the formula \rm CaCl_2\!.)
  • Each \rm Ca(NO_3)_2 formula unit will exist as one \rm Ca^{2+} and two \rm {NO_3}^{-} ions.

On the other hand, \rm AgCl is generally insoluble in water. This salt will not form ions.

Rewrite the original chemical equation to get the corresponding ionic equation. In this question, rewrite \rm AgNO_3, \rm CaCl_2, and \rm Ca(NO_3)_2 (three soluble salts) as the corresponding ions.

Pay attention to the coefficient of each species. For example, indeed each \rm AgNO_3\, (aq) formula unit will exist as only one \rm Ag^{+} ion and one \rm {NO_3}^{-} ion. However, because the coefficient of \rm AgNO_3\, (aq)\! in the original equation is two, \!\rm AgNO_3\, (aq) alone should correspond to two \rm Ag^{+}\! ions and two \rm {NO_3}^{-}\! ions.

Do not rewrite the salt \rm AgCl because it is insoluble.

\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} \, (aq) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \\ & \rm \to 2\, AgCl\, (s) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-}\, (aq)\end{aligned}.

Eliminate ions that are present on both sides of this ionic equation. In this question, such ions include one unit of \rm Ca^{2+} and two units of \rm {NO_3}^{-}. Doing so will give:

\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to 2\, AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}.

Simplify the coefficients:

\begin{aligned}& \rm Ag^{+}\, (aq) + Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}.

How many protons, electrons, and neutrons does the following isotope contain?<br> 27 A13+
Lapatulllka [165]

Hey there!

27 tells us the sum of protons and neutrons is 27.

Al tells us we have 13 protons.

3+ tells us that there are 3 less electrons than protons.

13 + n = 27

neutrons = 14

13 - 3 = 10 electrons

27Al3+ has 13 protons, 14 neutrons, and 10 electrons.

Hope this helps!
