Determine the oxidation state for each of the elements below. The oxidation state of ... silver ... in ... silver oxide Ag2O ... is ... ___ . The oxidation state of sulfur in sulfur dioxide SO2 is ___ . The oxidation state of iron in iron(

The oxidation state of silver in is .

The oxidation state of sulfur in is .

Explanation:

The oxidation states of atoms in a compound should add up to zero.

Ag₂O

There are two silver atoms and one oxygen atom in one formula unit of . Therefore:

.

The oxidation state of oxygen in most compounds (with the exception of peroxides and fluorides) is . Silver oxide isn't an exception. Therefore:

.

Solve this equation for the (average) oxidation state of :

.

SO₂

Similarly, because there are one sulfur atom and two oxygen atoms in each molecules:

.

The oxidation state of in is also , not an exception, either.

Therefore:

.

Solve this equation for the oxidation state of here:

.

The activity series is shown in the attached picture. if the element is below the other, then you can displace the other. following the activity series as a guide, the reactions are as follows: nickel and aluminum chloride3 ni + 2 alcl₃  → 3 nicl₂ + 2 albarium and copper bromideba + cubr  →  no reaction because cu is less oxidizable than bapotassium nitrate and aluminum3 kno₃ + al  → al(no₃)₃ + 3 ksodium phosphate and zincnaso₄ + zn  → znso₄ + na
