Answer:
the answer is (a)
Explanation:
an example of +1 oxidation state is Cu2O, where oxygen is 2- and so to balance the molecule, each copper atom is +1
Answer:
Lewis structure for nitrogen triiodide,
is given in the attachment.
Explanation:
Given:
The given compound is Nitrogen triiodide. In which 1 atom of Nitrogen combines with 3 atoms of Iodine. Both Nitrogen and Iodine are non-metals,So they form covalent bond by sharing of electrons.
The electron configuration of Nitrogen and Iodine is given below;

There are 5 electrons in valance shell of Nitrogen atom and 7 electrons in valance shell of Iodine atom.
So, 3 atom of Iodine shares 1 electron with 1 electrons of Nitrogen.
The Lewis dot Structure is in the attachment.
<span>Reaction: CI2 + H2O ----> HCIO + HCI
Oxidations states:
The oxitation state of Cl2 = 0, because the oxidation state of an atom alone or a molucule with one kind of atom is always 0.
The
oxidation state of Cl in HClO is +1 because the oxidation state of H is
+ 1, the oxidation state of O is - 2, and the molecule is neutral, so
+1 + 1 - 2 = 0
The oxidation state of Cl in HCl is - 1, because the oxidation state of H is +1 and the molecule is neutral, so - 1 + 1 = 0.
Also,
you shall remember that when an atom increases its oxidation state is
is oxidized and when an atoms reduces its oxidations state it is
reduced.
With that you conclude that the right option is the last statement: </span>Cl
has an oxidation number of 0 in Cl2. It is then reduced to CI- with an
oxidation number of –1 in HCl and is oxidized to Cl+ with an oxidation
number +1 in HClO.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The periodic table shows the atomic number and mass number of each element.
We know that the atomic number shows;
- The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom
- The number of electrons in the neutral atom of the element.
So we obtain the number of protons and electrons by looking at the atomic number shown in the periodic table.
We also know that;
Mass number = Number of protons + number of neutrons
Since number of protons = atomic number of the atom
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number
Hence we obtain the number of protons by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number given in the periodic table.
