Determine the oxidation number of sodium in Na202

Chemistry
1 answer:
Olegator [25]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

+1

Explanation:

Na₂O₂

NOTE: the oxidation number of oxygen is always –2 except in peroxides where it is –1.

Thus, we can obtain the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ as illustrated below:

Na₂O₂ = 0 (oxidation number of ground state compound is zero)

2Na + 2O = 0

O = –1

2Na + 2(–1) = 0

2Na – 2 = 0

Collect like terms

2Na = 0 + 2

2Na = 2

Divide both side by 2

Na = 2/2

Na = +1

Thus, the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ is +1

How many atoms are in 1.4 mol of phosphorus trifluoride (PF3)?
joja [24]

Number of atoms in 1.4 mol of Phosphorus trifluoride (PF₃) : 8.428 x 10²³

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

1.4 mol of Phosphorus trifluoride (PF₃), number of atoms :

\tt N=1.4\times 6.02\times 10^{23}\\\\N=8.428\times 10^{23}

Which rule for assigning oxidation numbers is correct?
LenKa [72]
Hydrogen is usually –1. This is INCORRECT. The oxidation number for H is +1.
Oxygen is usually –2. This is CORRECT.
A pure group 1 element is +1. This is INCORRECT. It does not follow. This will depend on the other elements and the overall charge.
A monatomic ion is 0. This is INCORRECT. Diatomic ion is 0.
