Q

Oxidation number rules

A

1) oxidation number of atoms in element is zero
2) oxidation number of ion is the same as the charge on the ion
3) sum of all oxidation numbers in a compound is zero
4) polyatomic ions the sum of all the oxidation numbers is equal to the charge on the ion

Q

Making standard solution definition

A

wash 250cm3 beaker and 250cm3 volumetric flask
rinse glass rod and glass funnel
weigh mass of solid and boat
tip solid into beaker and reweigh bottle
add 100cm3 of water to beaker
stir with glass rod until dissolved
pour solution down glass rod into funnel into volumetric flask
rinse rod and beaker and pour into funnel
add distilled water until bottom of meniscus is on the mark
put stopper on and invert flask 15 times to uniform concentration throughout solution
