<h3>Answer:</h3>

             Rb  =  + 1

              S    =  + 4

              O   =  - 2

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                   Oxidation states of the elements were calculated keeping in mind the basic rules of assigning oxidation states which included assignment of +1 charge to first group elements i.e. Rubidium (Rb) and assignment of -2 charge to Oxygen atom. Then the oxidation state of Sulfur was calculated as follow,

Rb₂ + S + O₃  =  0

Above zero (0) means that the overall molecule is neutral.

Putting values of Rb and O,

                                           (+1)₂ + S + (-2)₃  =  0

                                           (+2) + S + (-6)  =  0

                                           +2 + S - 6  = 0

                                           S - 6  =  -2

                                          S  =  -2 + 6

                                           S  =  + 4

Lunna [17]
<span>when it comes to adding or subtracting numbers, his final answer should have the same number of decimal places as the least precise value.
For example if you add 2 numbers; 10.443 + 3.5 , 10.443 has 3 decimal places and 3.5 has only one decimal place.
Therefore 3.5 is the less precise value.
So when adding these 2 values the final answer should have only one decimal place.
after adding we get 13.943 but it can have upto one decimal place. then the second decimal place is less than 5 so the answer should be rounded off to 13.9.
the answer is the same number of decimal places as the least precise value</span>

A voltaic cell consists of a nickel electrode in a solution containing Ni2+ ions, and a copper electrode in a solution containin
Marysya12 [62]
First, we write the half equations for the reduction of the chemical species present:

Cu⁺² + 2e → Cu; E° = 0.34 V
Ni⁺² + 2e → Ni; E° = - 0.23 V

In order to determine the potential of the cell, we find the difference between the two values. For this:

E(cell) = 0.34 - (-0.23)
E(cell) = 0.57 V

The second option is correct. (The difference in values is due to different values in literature, and it is negligible)

How are NGC 1427A and U different? How are they the same?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

that looks pretty and also well NGC 1427A has no general shape, so it is an irregular galaxy. U has a bulge in the center and arms, so it is a spiral galaxy. They are similar in the both certain plenty of dust and gas. Both also have active star-forming sites.

Darya [45]

Answer: 3.69 × 10^27

Explanation:

Amount of energy required = 7.06 × 10^4 J

Frequency of microwave (f) = 2.88 × 10^10 s−1

Planck's constant (h) = 6.63 × 10^-34 Jᐧs/quantum

Recall ;

Energy of photon = hf

Therefore, energy of photon :

(6.63 × 10^-34)j.s× (2.88 × 10^10)s^-1

= 19.0944 × 10^(-34 + 10) = 19.0944×10^-24 J

Hence, number of quanta required :

(7.06 × 10^4)J / (19.0944 × 10^-24)J

= 0.369 × 10^(4 + 24) = 0.369×10^28

= 3.69 × 10^27
