Oxidation number of sulphur in S is 0, in SCl2 is +2, in SO3 is +6, in H2S is - 2, in S2Cl2 is +1, in H2SO4 is +6.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Oxidation number is the numeric representation of the charge of the particular atom in a compound assuming the compound is 100% ionic in character. This oxidation number is calculated based on the electronegativity of the participating atoms and the valemct of the atoms.

In S, there are no other atoms except sulphur. So its an elemental atom and elemental atoms have oxidation number of 0.

In SCl2, chlorine is more electronegative than sulphur, so chlorine is given - 1 based on its valency and electronegativity. So sulphur will have the oxidation number of +2.

In SO3, oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur, so given - 2 based on its valency and electronegativity. So sulphur will be +6.

In H2S, hydrogen is electropositive than sulphur, so given +1. So the oxidation number of sulphur will be - 2.

In S2Cl2, chlorine is more electronegative than sulphur, so chlorine is given - 1 based on its valency and electronegativity. So sulphur will have the oxidation number of +1.

In H2SO4, hydrogen is electropositive than sulphur, so given +1 and oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur, so given - 2. So oxidation number of sulphur will be +6.

A balloon of air occupies 10.0L(V2)at25.0°C(T2)and1.00atm(P2). What temperature (T1) was it initially, if it occupied 9.40 L (V1

andrey2020 [161]

Answer: The initial temperature was 263 K

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 0.939 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 1.00 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 9.40 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = 10.0 L

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = ?

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = $25^oC=273+25=298K$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$\frac{0.939\times 9.40}{T_1}=\frac{1.00\times 10.0}{298}$

$T_1=263K$

Thus the initial temperature was 263 K

A 2.241-g sample of nickel reacts with oxygen to form 2.852 g of the metal oxide.

nlexa [21]

Answer:

The empirical formula is = $NiO$

Explanation:

Given that:- Mass of nickel = 2.241 g

Mass of the oxide formed = 2.852 g

Mass of the oxygen reacted = Mass of the oxide formed - Mass of nickel = 2.852 g - 2.241 g = 0.611 g

Molar mass of nickel = 58.6934 g/mol

Moles of nickel = $\frac{2.241}{58.6934}\ mol$ = 0.03818 mol

Molar mass of oxygen = 15.999 g/mol

Moles of nickel = $\frac{0.611}{15.999}\ mol$ = 0.03818 mol

Taking the simplest ratio for Ni and O as:

0.03818 : 0.03818 = 1 : 1

<u>The empirical formula is = $NiO$ </u>
