According to Arrhenius definition of acids, NH4^+ is an acid.

According  to Arrhenius  definition of acids and bases, acid is any substance that produces hydrogen ion in solution as its only positive ion.

Following this definition, let us now consider what happens when NH4^+ is introduced into a water;

NH4^+(aq)-------> NH3(aq) + H^+(aq)

Hence, according to Arrhenius definition of acids, NH4^+ is an acid.

For another example of Arrhenius acids, see

Write the condensed ground-state electron configurations of these transition metal ions, and state which are paramagnetic:
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

a) Mo the electron configuration: 42Mo: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d10 4p6 5s2 4d4

Mo3+ - is Paramagnetic

b) Au - [Xe] 4f14 5d10 6s1

For Au+ is not paramagnetic

c) Mn - [Ar] 3d5 4s2

Mn2+ is paramagnetic

d)Hf -[Xe] 4f¹⁴ 5d² 6s²

Hf2+ is not paramagnetic

Explanation:

An atom becomes positively charged when it looses an electron.

Diamagnetism in atom occurs whenever two electrons in an orbital paired equalises with a total spin of 0.

Paramagnetism in atom occurs whenever at least one orbital of an atom has a net spin of electron. That is a paramagnetic electron is just an unpaired electron in the atom.

Here is a twist even if an atom have ten diamagnetic electrons, the presence of at least one paramagnetic electron, makes it to be considered as a paramagnetic atom.

Simply put paramagnetic elements are one that have unpaired electrons, whereas diamagnetic elements do have paired electron.

What is the oxidation number of cl− in the hypochlorite ion clo−?
mariarad [96]

Answer : The oxidation number of chlorine (Cl) is, (+1)

Explanation :

Oxidation number : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.

Oxidation numbers are generally written with the sign (+) and (-) first and then the magnitude.

When the atoms are present in their elemental state then the oxidation number will be zero.

Rules for Oxidation Numbers :

The oxidation number of a free element is always zero.

The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.

The oxidation number of  Hydrogen (H)  is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electronegative elements.

The oxidation number of  oxygen (O)  in compounds is usually -2, but it is -1 in peroxides.

The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.

The oxidation number of a Group 2 element in a compound is +2.

The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.

The sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atoms in a neutral compound is zero.

The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge of the ion.

The given compound is, ClO^-

Let the oxidation state of 'Cl' be, 'x'

x+(-2)=-1\\\\x-2=-1\\\\x=+1

Therefore, the oxidation number of chlorine (Cl) is, (+1)
