(a)
Interpretation:
The oxidation number for silicon in
Concept introduction:
Oxidation number is the positive or negative value assigned to an atom in a substance. The number of electrons lost or gained by the elements gives the value of oxidation number. The oxidation number of monoatomic ion is equal to its charge and in free state its value is

EBK INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY
- Which of the following elements is most likely to be used to prepare La by the reduction of La2O3: Al, C, or Fe? Why?arrow_forwardIn the commercial preparation of aluminum, aluminum oxide, Al2O3, is electrolyzed at 1000C. (The mineral cryolite is added as a solvent.) Assume that the cathode reaction is Al3+3eAl How many coulombs of electricity are required to give 3.9 kg of aluminum?arrow_forwardPhosphorous acid, H3PO3, is oxidized to phosphoric acid, H3PO4, by nitric acid, which is reduced to nitrogen monoxide, NO. Write the balanced equation for this reaction.arrow_forward
- Determine the oxidation state of sulfur in SF6, SO2F2, and KHS.arrow_forwardCalcium metal can be obtained by the direct electrolysis of molten CaCl2, at a voltage of 3.2 V. (a) How many joules of electrical energy are required to obtain 12.0 1b of calcium? (b) What is the cost of the electrical energy obtained in (a) if electrical energy is sold at the rate of nine cents per kilowatt hour?arrow_forward.
