(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Assign oxidation numbers to all of the elements of the following:

H2S

Concept Introduction: The rules for assigning oxidation number to elements are:

  • For an element in its free state it is assigned an oxidation number of zero.
  • Monatomic ions have oxidation number that is equal to charge of the monatomic ion.
  • Alkali metals have +1 oxidation number, alkaline earth metals have +2 oxidation number and halogens are assigned -1 oxidation number.
  • In most compounds H is assigned a +1 oxidation number and O is assigned a -2 oxidation number.
  • For a neutral compound the summation of oxidation numbers of all elements in the compound is zero.

If the oxidation number of an element increases then it undergoes oxidation and if the oxidation number of the element decreases then it undergoes reduction.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Assign oxidation numbers to all of the elements of the following:

NO2

Concept Introduction: The rules for assigning oxidation number to elements are:

  • For an element in its free state it is assigned an oxidation number of zero.
  • Monatomic ions have oxidation number that is equal to charge of the monatomic ion.
  • Alkali metals have +1 oxidation number, alkaline earth metals have +2 oxidation number and halogens are assigned -1 oxidation number.
  • In most compounds H is assigned a +1 oxidation number and O is assigned a -2 oxidation number.
  • For a neutral compound the summation of oxidation numbers of all elements in the compound is zero.

If the oxidation number of an element increases then it undergoes oxidation and if the oxidation number of the element decreases then it undergoes reduction.

QUESTION Liquid A is known to have a lower viscosity and lower surface tension than Liquid B. Use these facts to predict the result of each experiment in the table below, if you can. experiment Liquid A and Liquid B are each pumped through tubes with an inside diameter of 27.0 mm, and the pressures PA and PB needed to produce a steady flow of 2.4 mL/s are measured. 25.0 mL of Liquid A are poured into a beaker, and 25.0 mL of Liquid B are poured into an identical beaker. Stirrers in each beaker are connected to motors, and the forces FA and FB needed to stir each liquid at a constant rate are measured. predicted outcome OPA will be greater than PB OPA will be less than PB OPA will be equal to PB It's impossible to predict whether PA or PB will be greater without more information.…
