ALEKS INTRODUCTION TO CHEMISTRY
- Assign an oxidation number to the underlined atom in each ion or molecule. (a) Fe2O3, (b) H2SO4, (C) CO32- (C) NO2+arrow_forwardDetermine the oxidation number of each element in each of the following compounds: (a) HCN (b) OF2 (c) ASCl3arrow_forwardFour metals, A, B, C, and D, exhibit the following properties: (a) Only A and C react with 1.0 M hydrochloric acid to give H2(g). (b) When C is added to solutions of the ions of the other metals, metallic B, D, and A are formed. (c) Metal D reduces Bn+ to give metallic B and Dn+. Based on this information, arrange the four metals in order of increasing ability to act as reducing agents.arrow_forward
