Balance the oxidation states on the atoms in the molecule.

An oxide always contains oxygen in -2 oxidation state , in ionic compounds this is O2-.

As the chromium is Cr(IV) in +4 oxidation state, ( shown as an ion Cr4+ ) you can balance the states or charges which ever way to get

CrO2 (which you can write as Cr4+ (O2-)2 )

How many moles of magnesium oxide are formed when 4 moles of magnesium react with oxygen Here is the formula 2 Mg plus O 2 is equal to 2 Mg O?

From the formula, you have 2 atoms of Magnesium combine with one oxygen molecule to form 2 molecules of magnesium oxide. So when 4 magnesium atoms combine with two molecules of oxygen you get 4 magnesium oxide molecules. So from 4 moles of magnesium you get 4 moles of Magnesium oxide.

How do you calculate the chemical formulae of stannic oxide?

That's old-fashioned nomenclature, but that's okay - the "-ic" suffix means you're dealing with tin with a higher number of valence electrons, in this case, 4. So with tin as +4 and oxygen, as always, as -2, you're going to get a formula of SnO2. Tin with a charge of +2 is the other possible valence option, and that's called "stannous oxide" with the "-ous" suffix, and a formula of SnO. The better way to express stannic oxide is simply to say tin(IV) oxide, and stannous oxide as tin(II) oxide.


How many moles of magnesium oxide re formed when 4 moles of magnesium react with oxygen this is the formula for the reaction?

The formula for magnesium oxide is MgO, showing that each formula unit of magnesium oxide contains one mole of magnesium ions. Therefore, if there is ample oxygen available, 4 moles of magnesium will form 4 moles of magnesium oxide.

What is the formula for chromium iii thiocyanate?

Cr(SCN)3 is the chemical formula for the Chromium (III) Thiocyanate. This is because Chromium (III) has a charge of +3 while Thiocyanate has a charge of -1. To balance the charges, we switch the 2 charges. So we have 1 ion of chromium (III) with 3 ions of thiocyanate.

Result of burn ammonium dichromate?

Burning ammonium dichromate leads to the decomposition of the compound into chromium(III) oxide, nitrogen gas, and water vapor. The reaction produces a green residue of chromium(III) oxide, while the released nitrogen gas produces the characteristic "volcano effect" due to the rapid expansion of the gas.
