Write the empirical formula of a list for binary ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions

Chemistry

klasskru [66]2 years ago

Answer:

CaBr₂, CaO, FeBr₂, FeO

Explanation:

Per binary compound, there must be 1 cation (Ca²⁺, Fe²⁺) and 1 anion (Br⁻, O²⁻). The compound should have a charge of 0 (neutral). For this to occur, there sometimes needs to be more than one cation/anion present in the compound. Below I have included the math that displays why there are more ions necessary in some compounds.

CaBr₂

-----> Ca = +2 and Br = -1

-----> +2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0

CaO

-----> Ca = +2 and O = -2

-----> +2 + (-2) = 0

FeBr₂

-----> Fe = +2 and Br = -1

-----> +2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0

FeO

-----> Fe = +2 and O = -2

-----> +2 + (-2) = 0

Atoms of element X weigh 32 times more than atoms of element Y. A compound has the formula: XY2 The ratio of the mass of X to th
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

16:1

Explanation:

Atoms of element X weigh 32 times more than atoms of element Y. We can write this in a symbolic way.

mX = 32 mY   [1]

where,

  • mX and mY are the masses of X and Y, respectively

A compound has the formula: XY₂, that is, in 1 molecule of XY₂ there is 1 atom of X and 2 atoms of Y. The ratio of the mass of X to the mass of Y in this compound equals:

mX/2 mY  [2]

If we substitute [1] in [2], we get:

mX/2 mY = 32 mY/2 mY = 16 = 16:1
