What is the oxidation reaction for carbon monoxide and oxygen?
2 co + o2 = 2 co2.
What colorless oderless poisonous gas is a by-product of gasoline engines?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is found in the exhaust of gasoline engines.
Why carbon monoxide do not make acid rain?
No. Even when CO dissolves in rain, it does not form any acid.
What element has the symbol co?
CO is not an element, it is a compound known as carbon monoxide. It is toxic, colorless, odorless gas. There is also Co, which is the element Cobalt, a metal.
What chemicals causes the air pollution?
Examples: carbon oxide, carbon dioxide, sulfur and nitrogen oxides, ozone, emissions from other industrial plants, flying ash, heavy metals, dust, and many others depending on the location and season.
What is the oxidation number of carbon in CO?
1
Give you five substances that undergoes oxidation reaction?
Carbon, Sulfur, CO, FeCl2, MnO2..
What is the oxidation number of Co in CoS?
The oxidation number for Co in CoS is +2, a divalent cobalt cation, since the only anion formed from a single sulfur atom has a charge of -2.
Why is sulfur dioxide not called SO onstead of SO2 as both have same valency of 2?
Good question. Sulfur dioxide means there is 1 sulfur atom and 2 oxygen atoms, and is not giving any information about the valence or oxidation state. Think of this.... Carbon monoxide = CO and Carbon dioxide = CO2
What is the oxidation state of carbon in isocyanide?
nitrogen being more electronegative than carbon, the contribution of co-ordinate bond is neglected and carbon provides two electrons to nitrogen. so oxidation number of carbon in iso cyanide is +2
What is the oxidation state of an individual carbon atom in CaCO3?
+4 oxygen has an oxidation of -2, so do 3 times -2=-6, i believe Ca is a +2 and you must get the numbers to equal 0. so the answer is a +4
What is the oxidation number of Co in CoSO4?
+2
How do you know oxidation number for CoCl3?
Cl has an oxidation number of -1 because it is in the group 7a. -1*6 = -6 K has an oxidation number of +1 and there are three of them. -6+3+x = 0 The oxidation number of Co is +3.
What is the oxidation reaction for carbon monoxide and oxygen?
2 co + o2 = 2 co2.
What is the oxidation number of CoS?
+2 for Co, -2 for S
Oxidation number of Co in CoF6 2 minus?
+4
What colorless oderless poisonous gas is a by-product of gasoline engines?
Carbon monoxide (CO) is found in the exhaust of gasoline engines.
