Question
Chapter 16, Problem 8E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To complete the blank given in the statement “For a neutral molecule, the oxidation states of the individual atoms must add up to _____.”
Concept introduction:
Oxidation states or the oxidation number is a + or – value that is given to the element in order to represent the number of electrons lost or gained when undergoing a chemical combination. In case of loss of electrons, the oxidation number is positive. In case of gain of electrons, the oxidation number is negative.

Reagan is doing an atomic absorption experiment that requires a set of zinc standards in the 0.4-1.6 ppm range. A 1000 ppm Zn solution was prepared by dissolving the necessary amount of solid Zn(NO3)2 in water. The standards can be prepared by diluting the 1000 ppm Zn solution. Table 1 shows one possible set of serial dilutions (stepwise dilution of a solution) that Reagan could perform to make the necessary standards. Solution A was prepared by diluting 5.00 ml of the 1000 ppm Zn standard to 50.00 ml. Solutions C-E are called "calibration standards" because they will be used to calibrate the atomic absorption spectrometer.
a. Compare the solution concentrations expressed as ppm Zn and ppm Zn(NO3)2. Compare the concentrations expressed as M Zn and M Zn(NO3)2
- Which units allow easy conversion between chemical species (e.g. Zn and Zn(NO3)2)?
- Which units express concentrations in numbers with easily expressed magnitudes?
- Suppose you have an analyte for which you don't know the molar…
