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

A monatomic cation is a cation made of only one atom.

Cations are positively charged ions, in this example Ag⁺, Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺.

These cations form only one type of ion, while iron and copper form more than one type of cations.

Iron and copper form cations with different charges (Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cu⁺, Cu²⁺).

It depends on electron configuration which type would be formed.

Electron configuration of zinc atom: ₃₀Zn 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s²

Transition metals are elements in the d-block of the Periodic table.

Hi everyone can anyone help with this, the question and diagram is in the pic thx!

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

P has 9 electrons.

Electronic Configuration : 2, 7

Valence electrons : 7

P needs 1 electron to get stable electronic configuration.

Q has 3 electrons.

Electronic Configuration : 2, 1

Valence electrons : 1

P needs to loose 1 electron to get stable electronic configuration.

Q donates 1 electron,

Q -----> Q+ + 1 e-

P gains 1 electron,

P + 1 e- -----> P-

Q+ + P- -----> QP

This is an ionic compound.

How many grams of sodium chloride are present in a 0.75 M solution with a volume of 500.0 milliliters?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The units for molarity is moles of solute per liter of solution which means if you multiply the molarity of a solution by its volume you get how many moles of solute are in the solution. (0.75Mx0.5L=0.375mol NaCl) Then you can multiply the moles of sodium chloride (0.375 mol) by its molar mass (58.45 g/mol) to get 21.92g of sodium chloride. That means there is 21.92 grams of sodium chloride in 500mL of 0.75M solution. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Find percent yield:

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: The percent yield of the reaction is 91.8 %

Explanation:

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

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

For $B_5H_9$ :

Given mass of $B_5H_9$ = 4.0 g

Molar mass of $B_5H_9$ = 63.12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of }B_5H_9=\frac{4g}{63.12g/mol}=0.0634mol$

For oxygen gas:

Given mass of oxygen gas = 10.0 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of oxygen gas}=\frac{10g}{32g/mol}=0.3125mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of $B_5H_9$ and oxygen gas follows:

$2B_5H_9+12O_2\rightarrow 5B_2O_3+9H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

12 moles of oxygen gas reacts with 2 moles of $B_2H_5$

So, 0.3125 moles of oxygen gas will react with = $\frac{2}{12}\times 0.3125=0.052mol$ of $B_2H_5$

As, given amount of $B_2H_5$ is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, oxygen gas is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

12 moles of oxygen gas produces 5 moles of $B_2O_3$

So, 0.3125 moles of oxygen gas will produce = $\frac{5}{12}\times 0.3125=0.130moles$ of water

Now, calculating the mass of $B_2O_3$ from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of $B_2O_3$ = 69.93 g/mol

Moles of $B_2O_3$ = 0.130 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.130mol=\frac{\text{Mass of }B_2O_3}{69.63g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of }B_2O_3=(0.130mol\times 69.63g/mol)=9.052g$

To calculate the percentage yield of $B_2O_3$ , we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of $B_2O_3$ = 8.32 g

Theoretical yield of $B_2O_3$ = 9.052 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of }B_2O_3=\frac{8.32g}{9.052g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of }B_2O_3=91.8\%$

Hence, the percent yield of the reaction is 91.8 %

Choose the correct statement.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

B) Cations lose electrons having a charge of positive.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, it is widely known that ions are classified as positive cations and negative anions, since the former is produced when a metal loses electrons and the latter when a nonmetal gains electrons; in such a way, the correct choice is:

B) Cations lose electrons having a charge of positive.
