Predict the type of bonding in each of the following substances. Provide their chemical

Chapter 18 Electrochemistry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the chemical action of electricity and the production of electricity by chemical reactions. Assigning oxidation numbers: Fe O + 3CO ------- 2Fe + 3CO 2 3 2 3+ (Fe2) (These elements balance each other) (O 36- (Oxygen usually has a charge of -2. 2*3=6) (O)2- (See above) 2+ (3C) (These elements must balance each other out) 0 (2Fe) (Elemental form has no charge) (3C) 4+ (See above) (O )4- (See above) 2 Note: The electric charge is not tied to the elements stoichiometry. A useful way to check this is to remember that the sum of the oxidation states is equal to the charge of the molecule: HCO
