What is the oxidation state of selenium in SeO3?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
ra1l [238]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: The oxidation state of selenium in SeO3 is +6

Explanation:

SeO3 is the chemical formula for selenium trioxide.

- The oxidation state of SeO3 = 0 (since it is stable and with no charge)

- the oxidation number of oxygen (O) IN SeO3 is -2

- the oxidation state of selenium in SeO3 = Z (let unknown value be Z)

Hence, SeO3 = 0

Z + (-2 x 3) = 0

Z + (-6) = 0

Z - 6 = 0

Z = 0 + 6

Z = +6

Thus, the oxidation state of selenium in SeO3 is +6

<span>Answer: .01 moles of D to .005 moles of L ~ so, .01+.005 = .015 total; using this total value, divide the portions of D and L. so .01/.015 to .005/.015 ~ 67% D to 33% L. And thus, the enantiomer excess will be 34%.</span>

Describe the many different forms of energy involved with stretching and releasing a rubber band. What other processes are simil
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy (chemo mechanical energy)

In the state of rest, the rubber is a tangled mass of long chained cross-linked polymer that due to their disorderliness are in a state of increased entropy. By pulling on the polymer, the applied kinetic energy stretches the polymer into straight chains, giving them order and reducing their entropy. The stretched rubber then has energy stored in the form of chemo mechanical energy which is a form of potential energy

Conversion of the stored potential energy in the stretched to kinetic energy

By remaining in a stretched condition, the rubber is in a state of high potential energy, when the force holding the rubber in place is removed, due to the laws of thermodynamics, the polymers in the rubber curls back to their state of "random" tangled mass releasing the stored potential energy in the process and doing work such as moving items placed in the rubber's path of motion such as an object that has weight, w then takes up the kinetic energy 1/2×m×v² which can can result in the flight of the object.

topjm [15]

Answer: (3) 15

Explanation: We criss-cross down the oxidation numbers to get the subscripts for the correct formulas. That means the X has an oxidation number of 5. The element with the + oxidation number is always written first so it is +5. Of the groups names, only group 15 has +5 as an oxidation number.

For the reaction n2(g) + 2h2(g) â n2h4(l), if the percent yield for this reaction is 77.5%, what is the actual mass of hydrazine
Rudiy27

First calculate the moles of N2 and H2 reacted.

moles N2 = 27.7 g / (28 g/mol) = 0.9893 mol

moles H2 = 4.45 g / (2 g/mol) = 2.225 mol

 

We can see that N2 is the limiting reactant, therefore we base our calculation from that.

Calculating for mass of N2H4 formed:

mass N2H4 = 0.9893 mol N2 * (1 mole N2H4 / 1 mole N2) * 32 g / mol * 0.775

<span>mass N2H4 = 24.53 grams</span>

Two chemicals A and B are combined to form a chemical C. The rate, or velocity, of the reaction is proportional to the product o
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

30.6 g of C is formed.

Explanation:

2A + B → C

Average rate of reaction = 2[A]/Δt = [B]/Δt = [C]/Δt

Average rate of reaction = [C]/Δt

Average rate of reaction  = 15 g / 9 min

Average rate of reaction  = 1.7 g of C / min

Average rate of reaction = [C]/Δt

[C] = Average rate of reaction x Δt

[C] = 1.7 g of C / min x 18 min

[C] = 30.6 g of C
