I want to thank your team (Jeff) for finding a new writer when you were unable to reach my existing writer to revise my paper. I appreciate your professionalism and efforts. Thanks
Here’s what you have here.
I’ll show you how to find manganese’s oxidation state in the first two , and leave the last one to you as practice.
In each of those three cases, you can determine the of manganese by using the known oxidation state of oxygen and the overall charge of the ion, when that is the case.
Oxygen has a ##”(-2)”## oxidation state in these compounds. So, you’re dealing with
Here, the ion has an overall ##”(1-)”## charge, which means that the of all the atoms that make up the permanganate ion must add up to give ##-1##.
This means that you have – do not forget that you have four oxygen atoms in the permanganate ion!
##ON_”Mn” + 4 xx ON_”oxygen” = -1##
##ON_”Mn” = -1 – 4 xx (-2)##
##ON_”Mn” = -1 + 8 = color(green)(+7)##
In the permanganate anion, manganese has a ##”(+7)”## oxidation state.
The same strategy applies, only this time you’re dealing with a neutral compound, which means that the oxydation numbers of all the atoms must add up to give zero.
This means that you have – keep in mind that you get two manganese atoms and three oxygen atoms in manganese(III) oxide!
##2 xx ON_”MN” + 3 xx ON_”oxygen” = 0##
##2 xx ON_”Mn” = 0 – 3 xx ON_”oxygen”##
##ON_”Mn” = (0 – 3 xx (-2))/2 = 6/2 = color(green)(3)##
Manganese has a ##”(+3)”## oxidation state in manganese(III) oxide. Notice that the compound’s name illustrates that – the Roman numeral ##”(III)”## tells you what the oxidation state of manganese is.
So, use the exact same approach to find the oxidation state of manganese in manganese dioxide, ##”MnO”_2##.
