Chemistry
1 answer:
CaHeK987 [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Fe(CN)₂,  FeCO₃,  Pb(CN)₄,  Pb(CO₃)₂

Explanation:

Cations (positively charged ions) can only form ionic bonds with anions (negatively charged ions). However, you can't just simply put one cation and one anion together to form a compound. Each compound needs to been neutral, or have an overall charge of 0. When cations and anions do not have charges that perfectly cancel, you need to modify the amount of each ion in the compound.

1.) Fe(CN)₂
-----> Fe²⁺ and CN⁻

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

2.) FeCO₃

-----> Fe²⁺ and CO₃²⁻

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

3.)  Pb(CN)₄

-----> Pb⁴⁺ and CN⁻

-----> +4 + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) = 0

4.) Pb(CO₃)₂

-----> Pb⁴⁺ and CO₃²⁻

-----> +4 +(-2) + (-2) = 0

Determine whether each molecule given below is polar or nonpolar. of2
sergejj [24]

Answer : The molecule OF_2 is a polar molecule.

Explanation :

Polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is asymmetrical then the molecule is polar.

Non-polar molecule : When the arrangement of the molecule is symmetrical then the molecule is non-polar.

The given molecule is, OF_2

The electronegativities of oxygen and fluorine are different. The molecular geometry of OF_2 is bent. As, Fluorine is more elctronegative than the oxygen. So, the arrows putting towards the more electronegative element i.e, fluorine. These arrows do not balance each other. Due to this, the asymmetrical arrangement of these bonds makes the molecule polar.

Hence, the given molecule OF_2 is polar.

Using the periodic tables, identify the heaviest member of each of the following groups:
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

(a) Alkali metals: Francium (Fr)

(b) Chalcogens: Polonium (Po)

(c) Noble gases: Radon (Rn)

(d) Alkaline earth metals: Radium (Ra)

Explanation:

In the periodic table, the atomic mass increases down the group. Therefore, the last element of a group is the heaviest element of the group.

(a) alkali metals: The chemical elements that are present in group 1 of the periodic table, except hydrogen.

<u>The heaviest member of this group is francium (Fr)</u>

(b) chalcogens: The chemical elements that are present in group 16 of the periodic table

<u>The heaviest member of this group is polonium (Po)</u>

(c) noble gases:  The chemical elements that are present in group 18 of the periodic table

<u>The heaviest member of this group is radon (Rn)</u>

(d) alkaline earth metals: The chemical elements that are present in group 2 of the periodic table.

<u>The heaviest member of this group is radium (Ra)</u>
