Question
Qualitatively, the c____an be indicative of the oxidation state of a given element in the solution.
Answer
Qualitatively, the color of a solution can be indicative of the oxidation state of a given element in the solution.
Note: The same element in different oxidation states can undergo different electron transitions and therefore absorb different frequencies of light.
Note #2: In Figure 4.9, this phenomenon is shown for various plutonium salts with different oxidation states for plutonium indicated in Roman numerals.

Formula unit represents ____.
____ represents the empirical formula of an ionic compound, since they do not form true molecules, rather a coordinated lattice.
____ weight is the term used for ionic compounds "molecular" weight as no molecule actually exists, its just a lattice structure.
____ compounds form from elements of similar electronegativity.
Atomic weight is ____.
____ is a weighted average of the masses of the naturally occurring isotopes of an element, not their weights.
