-
Solution
The correct name for NO2 using stock notation is :
-
Solution
The method of representing oxidation number by a Roman numeral within the parenthesis represents Stock notation.
FeS2 + O2 ⟶ Fe2O3+ SO2 In the above equation the number of electrons lost by one molecule of FeS2 are –
-
Solution
In FeS2, Fe2+ is converting into Fe3+ and sulphur is changing from –1 oxidation state to +4 oxidation state.There are two S–and one Fe2+ in FeS2. Thus total no.of electrons lost in the given reaction are 11.

Solution
Standard electrode potentials of redox couples A2+/A, B2+/B, C/C2+ and D2+/D are 0.3V, – 0.5V, – 0.75V and 0.9V respectively. Which of these is best oxidising agent and reducing agent respectively –
-
Solution
The redox couple with maximum reduction potential will be best oxidising agent and with minimum reduction potential will be best reducing agent.
The oxidation state of chromium in the final product formed by the reaction between KI and acidified potassium dichromate solution is:
-
Solution
The correct decreasing order of oxidation number of oxygen in compounds BaF2, O3, KO2 and OF2 is :
-
Solution
Oxidation no. of O are + 2, 0, – 1/2 and – 1 respectively.
Among NH3, HNO3, NaN3 and Mg3N2 the number of molecules having nitrogen in negative oxidation state is
-
Solution
Calculating the oxidation state of nitrogen in given molecules;Oxidation state of N in NH3 is x + 3 ×(+ 1) =0 or x = – 3 Oxidation state on N in NaNO3 is 1 +x+ 3 × (– 2) = 0 or x = + 5 Oxidation state of N in NaN3 is+ 1 + 3x= 0 or x= –13 Oxidation state of N in Mg3N2 is 3 × 2 + 2x= 0 or x = –3 Thus 3 molecules (i.e. NH3, NaN3 and Mg3N2 have nitrogen in negative oxidation state.
-
Solution
\(CrO_{4}^{2-}\) ⟶ \(Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}\) O.N of Cr does not change . It remains +6 on both sides . Hence there is no oxidation or reduction.
One mole of N2H4 loses 10 moles of electrons to form a new compound, y. Assuming that all nitrogen appear in the new compound, what is the oxidation state of nitrogen in y (There is no change in the oxidation state of hydrogen )
-
