The oxidation state of the compound Mn (ClO4)3 is to be determined in this problem. For oxygen, the charge is 2-, the total considering its number of atoms is -24. Mn has a charge of +3. TO compute for Mn, we must achieve zero charge overall hence 3+3x-24=0 where x is the Cl charge. Cl charge, x is +7.
Answer: The answer is Fossil A is younger than the index fossil.

<span>the pH of a 0.050 M triethylamine, is 11.70
</span>
For triehtylamine,

, the reaction will be

and we know, pH = -log[H+] and pOH = -log[OH-]
Also, pOH + pH = 14
Now, the Kb value = 5.3 x 10^-4
And
![kb = \frac{( [( C_{2}H_{5})_{3}NH^{+} ]* OH^{-} )}{[( C_{2}H_{5})_{3}N]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=kb%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B%28%20%5B%28%20C_%7B2%7DH_%7B5%7D%29_%7B3%7DNH%5E%7B%2B%7D%20%5D%2A%20%20OH%5E%7B-%7D%20%29%7D%7B%5B%28%20C_%7B2%7DH_%7B5%7D%29_%7B3%7DN%5D%7D%20)
thus, [OH-] =(5.3 ^ 10-4) ^2 / 0.050
=0.00516 M
Thus, pOH = 2.30
pH = 14 - pOH = 11.7
Yes it could, but you'd have to set up the process very carefully.
I see two major challenges right away:
1). Displacement of water would not be a wise method, since rock salt
is soluble (dissolves) in water. So as soon as you start lowering it into
your graduated cylinder full of water, its volume would immediately start
to decrease. If you lowered it slowly enough, you might even measure
a volume close to zero, and when you pulled the string back out of the
water, there might be nothing left on the end of it.
So you would have to choose some other fluid besides water ... one in
which rock salt doesn't dissolve. I don't know right now what that could
be. You'd have to shop around and find one.
2). Whatever fluid you did choose, it would also have to be less dense
than rock salt. If it's more dense, then the rock salt just floats in it, and
never goes all the way under. If that happens, then you have a tough
time measuring the total volume of the lump.
So the displacement method could perhaps be used, in principle, but
it would not be easy.
