Which transition metals usually form only one monoatomic cation? select all that apply.

Zn, Cd, and Ag transition metals usually form only one monoatomic cation.

What is a monoatomic cation?

The term Monatomic ion sounds complex. The meaning becomes clear if taken in three parts. Mono means one; atomic refers to atom, and ion is a charged particle. Putting it all together, the meaning or definition of the term is "a single atom with a charge." The question that arises is what kind and how many charges do the monatomic ions carry? Electric charges can be positive or negative, so the ions may possess either one. The quantity of charge the ions have is expressed in integers- -1, +3, and so on, and never as fractions. 

The formation of a monatomic ion depends on its electron configuration. Atoms are reactive because they have incomplete valence shells, meaning that their valence shells do not have the maximum number of electrons possible. Atoms of inert gases have complete sets of electrons in their valence shells. Atoms of elements try to obtain the inert gas electron configuration by: 

  • gaining the required number of electrons to complete the valence shell OR
  •  losing valence electrons. and so they have an entire shell, to get a filled shell. The images of the electron configuration of the first three noble gases will help understand the formation of ions.

why can you smell a cake baking when you are in your bedroom chemistry how does kinetic theory explain how you can smell coffee
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The smell from the cake leaves the room at high velocities because of diffusion.

Kinetic theory:

The kinetic theory applies to gases and describes their random movement and collisions in the whole volume that they are allowed to fill. This movement depends on factors like temperature and pressure.

Coffee and bacon particles will exist in the air in gaseous form. They will be colliding with each other, with all the other air particles and with the room walls to eventually disperse evenly in the whole room. They will be detected when coming into contact with olfactory receptors in the nose. They will reach the nose at the same temperature and there are equal amounts of particles of each.

Then if I have 210.1 g barium chloride with 45g potassium...how many grams of potassium chloride will I produce?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

  85.8 g

Explanation:

The molar mass of BaCl₂ is 208.233 g/mol, so 210.1 g is about ...

  210.1/208.233 ≈ 1.009 mol

The molar mass of K is about 39.089 g/mol, so 45 g is about ...

  45/39.089 ≈ 1.1509 mol

The balanced equation seems to be ...

  BaCl₂ + 2K  ↔ 2KCl + Ba

This reaction requires 2 moles of potassium for each mole of barium chloride, so the available potassium limits the reaction. The result is as many moles of potassium chloride as there are moles of potassium.

The 1.1509 moles of KCl, at 74.551 g/mol will have a mass of about 85.8 g.

The reaction produces 85.8 g of KCl.
