For each ionic compound formula, identify the main group to which X belongs: (a) XF2;

1 answer:

8 0

(a) For the compound XF₂, X must be a metal. As fluorine is monovalent and there are two fluorine atoms, so the valency of X must be two.

Therefore, X belongs to group 2.

A metallic compound is a compound that contains one or more metal elements bonded to another element.

The elements are bonded with the help of metallic bonds.

Monovalent compounds are compounds which consist of an atom which has only a single covalent bond.

The covalent bond is defined as an interatomic linkage formed by sharing the electronic pair between two atoms.

Valency is the combining power of an element. It helps with bond formation.

How many grams of zinc would be required to produce 9.65g of zinc hydroxide

Effectus [21]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

How many grams of zinc would be required to produce 9.65g of zinc hydroxide

Zn+2MnO₂+H₂O→Zn(OH)₂+Mn₂O₃

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of zinc required is 6.35 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

Given mass of zinc hydroxide = 9.65 g

Molar mass of zinc hydroxide = 99.4 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of zinc hydroxide}=\frac{9.65g}{99.4g/mol}=0.0971mol$

The given chemical equation follows:

$Zn+2MnO_2+H_2O\rightarrow Zn(OH)_2+Mn_2O_3$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of zinc hydroxide is produced from 1 mole of zinc

So, 0.0971 moles of zinc hydroxide will be produced from = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0971=0.0971mol$ of zinc

Now, calculating the mass of zinc from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of zinc = 65.4 g/mol

Moles of zinc = 0.0971 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0971mol=\frac{\text{Mass of zinc}}{65.4g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of zinc}=(0.0971mol\times 65.4g/mol)=6.35g$

Hence, the mass of zinc required is 6.35 grams

During which two minutes time period is the temperature of water changing faster?!

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

2-4 minutes

Explanation:

Fastest changing temperature means larger change in temperature when subtracting final temperature from initial temperature in a given time period (given time period is 2 minutes for all the options)

For 0-2 minutes, our final temperature was 40 (at 2 min) and initial temperature was 20 (at 0 min), thus temperature change was only 20 C.

For 2-4, our final temperature was 80 (at 4 min) and initial temperature was 40 (at 2 min) thus temperature change was 40 C.

For 4-6, our final temperature was 100 (at 6 min) and initial temperature was 80 (at 4 min) thus temperature change was 20 C.

We are not given temperature at 8 min so option D is invalid.

As we can clearly see that in a given 2 minute period, option B has the fastest change because it changed 40C when compared to other options that changed only 20C from starting temperature.

Hope that makes sense.

A student standardizes a solution of aqueous NaOH against a measured mass of solid potassium hydrogen phthalate. She then uses t

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

(D) Neither I nor II

Explanation:

The reagent potassium hydrogen phthalate is found in pure form and it is not partially hydrated .

The pallet form of NaOH ( solid form ) absorbs carbon dioxide gas from the atmosphere but NaOH in solution form does not absorb carbon dioxide .

Hence option D ) is right choice .
