What is the oxidation number of a mercury I ion?
It is equal to the charge. So Oxidation number is +1
What is the oxidation number of mercury 1?
+1 for Hg in the Hg22+ ion
What is the chemical formula of mercurous?
Th mercurous ion is a diatomic catiion, Hg22+, consisting of two mercury atoms covalently bonded together.
Is calomel ionic or covalent?
Calomel is mercury(I) chloride (mercurous chloride). It is ionic and contains the Hg22+ ion and the Cl- ion.
What is the oxidation number of S in S2O8?
This is the thiosulfate ion. Sulfur shows +6 oxidation number.
What is the oxidation number of a mercury I ion?
It is equal to the charge. So Oxidation number is +1
Mercury plus what gives mercurous nitrate?
Mercury could be reacted with Nitric acid to form Mercurous nitrate. Since hydrogen is less reactive than mercury, therefore mercury would not replace hydrogen from nitric acid but the nitrate ion could oxidize mercury ion and form mercurous chloride .
What is the oxidation number of mercury 1?
+1 for Hg in the Hg22+ ion

This is the thiosulfate ion. Sulfur shows +6 oxidation number.
What is oxidation number of carbon in Hydronium?
In the hydronium ion (H3O+), the oxidation number of carbon is +3.
What is the oxidation number of the molecular ion ammonium NH4 in ammonium chloride NH4Cl?
The oxidation number of the ammonium ion is +I.
What is the oxidation number of an ion?
Whatever the charge on that ion is.
What is the balanced formula for mercuric oxide?
HgO. The single mercury cation has a +2 charge, and single oxide anion a -2 charge. Mercurous oxide would be Hg2O, ie, the mecurous ion is a dimer, therefore it has two mercury atoms, each with a +1 charge. Since the oxide ion has a -2 charge , mercurous oxide is Hg2O.
How is charge related to oxidation number?
the charge on a mono-atomic ion is the same as the oxidation number, for a polyatomic ion the charge is the sum of the oxidation numbers of its constituent elements.
With monatomic species what does the oxidation number indicate?
The charge. Cations and anions have an oxidation number equal to their charge, for example in Fe2+, Fe hasan oxidation number of +2 and in S2- S has an oxidation number of -2. Uncharged atoms have zero oxidation number.
