Which solution is most concentrated?

A) 6 g of solute in 10 ml of solution B) 20.5 g of solute in 50 ml of solution
C) 30 g of solute in 120 ml of solution D) 2.6 g of solute in 2 ml of solution
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 2.6 g of solute in 2 ml of solution

Explanation:

A concentrated solution will contain the most solute molecules per solvent molecules.

Here in the given options,

1)  6/10 = 0.6

2) 20.5/50 = 0.41

3) 30/120 = 0.25

4) 2.6/2 = 1.3

 

Hence, option D) is most concentrated.

Q:

NH3 oxidation number?

A) -1 B) +1
C) 0 D) -3
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 0

Explanation:

NH3, Ammonia is a neutral compound as the individual oxidation numbers elements that make up the compound NH3 are Nitrogen (N) and Hydrogen (H) sum to zero. 

We do not speak of the oxidation number of a molecule. We can speak of the oxidation numbers of the individual elements that make up the compound.

 

Here the oxidation number of Nirogen is -3 and that of Hydrogen is +1.

Now, NH3 = 1(-3) + 3(+1) = -3 + 3 = 0.
