Answer : The oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0).
Explanation :
Oxidation number or oxidation state : 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.
Rules for Oxidation Numbers are :
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.
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 chemical reaction is:
In the given reaction, the oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0) because it is a free element and the oxidation state of Mg in is (+2).
Hence, the oxidation state of Mg in Mg(s) is (0).
Answer:
The new temperature of the water bath 32.0°C.
Explanation:
Mass of water in water bath ,m= 8.10 kg = 8100 g ( 1kg = 1000g)
Initial temperature of the water =
Final temperature of the water =
Specific heat capacity of water under these conditions = c = 4.18 J/gK
Amount of energy lost by water = -Q = -69.0 kJ = -69.0 × 1000 J
( 1kJ=1000 J)
The new temperature of the water bath 32.0°C.
