What is the oxidation state of an element that is not involved in bonding

Chemistry
1 answer:
masha68 [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

The oxidation state of an element that is not involved in bonding is zero. An atom in its free and uncombined state has zero oxidation number.

The extent of oxidation of each atom of the elements in a molecular formula or formula unit or an ionic radical is given by the oxidation number.

  • The formal charge assigned to an atom present in a molecule or a formula unit or ion based on some arbitrary rules is given by the oxidation number.
  • Elements in their uncombined state or one whose atom combine with themselves to form molecules  have zero oxidation number.

What is the molarity of a solution that has 23.0 g of NaOH dissolved in 0.500 L of solution?
madreJ [45]

Answer: 1.15M

Explanation:

Given that,

Amount of moles of NaOH (n) = ?

Mass of NaOH in grams = 23.0g

For molar mass of NaOH, use the atomic masses: Na = 23g; O = 16g; H = 1g

NaOH = (23g + 16g + 1g)

= 40g/mol

Since, n = mass in grams / molar mass

n = 23.0g / 40.0g/mol

n = 0.575 mole

Volume of NaOH solution (v) = 0.5 L

Concentration of NaOH solution (c) = ?

Since concentration (c) is obtained by dividing the amount of solute dissolved by the volume of solvent, hence

c = n / v

c = 0.575 mole / 0.5L

c = 1.15 M (M stands for molarity and gives the concentration in moles per litres)

Thus, the molarity of the solution is 1.15M
