Answer:Gained, Lost , Shared
Explanation:
The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has GAINED.................. , LOST....................... , or SHARED........................ , in forming a compound.
Oxidation state is defined as the the total number of electrons that an atom gains or loses when forming a chemical bond with another atom.
----To form an ionic bond for example in NaCl, Na, with 11 electrons and one valence electron in its outermost shell donates or lose that valence electron to Chlorine with 17 electron and 7 in its outermost shell. Therefore Sodium, Na acquires the +1 oxidaton state to become stable and Chlorine acquires the -1 oxidation state to become stable forming the NaCl compound.
To form a covalent compound, There must be sharing of electrons between atoms.For example, in PCl3, The phosphorous atom with atomic number 15 shares its three unpaired electrons with the single valence electrons of three chlorine atoms. making the four molecules to attain stability with Phosphorous having +3 and the chlorine atoms having -1 oxidation states
Following the law of conservation of mass, the mass percent of hydrogen in the resulting compound is 14.4%(wt/wt). This is assuming that all of the carbon reacts with all of the hydrogen. The solution is as follows:
mass % = mass hydrogen*100/total mass = 28.8*100/(28.8+171.2) = 14.4%
BiO₃⁻ → Bi³⁺
+5 +3
Balance oxidation state:
BiO₃⁻ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺
Balancing oxygen by adding water and balance H
BiO₃⁻ + 6 H⁺ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺ + 3 H₂O
balance charge:
BiO₃⁻ + 6 H⁺ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺ + 3 H₂O
+ 3 + 3
Final:
BiO₃⁻ + 6 H⁺ + 2 e⁻ → Bi³⁺ + 3 H₂O
Complete Question:
A chemist adds 55.0 mL of a 1.1M barium acetate (Ba(C2H3O2)2) solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of barium acetate the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Answer:
15 g
Explanation:
The concentration of the barium acetate is given in mol/L (M), thus, the number of moles (n) of it is the concentrantion multiplied by the volume (55.0 mL = 0.055 L):
n = 1.1 * 0.055
n = 0.0605 mol
The molar mass of the substance can be calculated by the sum of the molar mass of each element, which can be found at the periodic table. Thus:
Ba = 137.33 g/mol
C = 12.00 g/mol
H = 1.00 g/mol
O = 16.00 g/mol
Ba(C2H3O2)2 = 137.33 + 4*12 + 6*1 + 4*16 = 255.33 g/mol
The molar mass is the mass divided by the number of moles, thus the mass (m) is the molar mass multiplied by the number of moles.
m = 255.33 * 0.0605
m = 15.45 g
Rounded by 2 significant digits, m = 15 g.
