the compound with the smaller lattice energy is potassium sulphide here the size of the molecule play a important role

The quantity of energy released by the electrostatic attraction of oppositely charged ions is known as lattice energy (L.E). The ion's size and charge affect the lattice energy.

lattice energy is inversely proportional to   size of ion and directly proportional to charge of the ion. They are each charged equally that is plus two and minus two However, because the Sulphur is larger in size  and the oxygen is lesser in this case, The lattice energy of potassium oxide is larger  the lattice energy of potassium sulphide  is smaller.

for the reaction 2Fe + O2 = 2FeO, how many grams of iron oxide are produced from 8.00 mol of iron? when o2 is an excess
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

2Fe + O₂ -------------------> 2FeO

8 mol Fe produce

8 mol Fe * 2 mol FeO / 2 mol Fe = 8 mol FeO

Mass of FeO = 8 mol FeO * 71.85 g/mol = 574.8 grams FeO

Explanation:

Having 8 mol of Iron means 8 moles of iron oxide can be produced. Each mole of iron oxide has a molecular weight of 71.85 grams. Therefore, 8 moles of iron oxide should weight 574.8 grams.

How many major reservoirs does carbon move between?<br> A. 3<br> B. 4<br> C. 5<br> D. 2
Irina-Kira [14]
<span>Carbon can also bond with other four atoms because of its outer shell (valence shell) that has four electrons. This is the reason why organic molecules can be so large because of this bonding. Suppose you have a compound of CCl4. You know that chlorine can only share 1 electron because 7 of its electrons are filled. Also, in carbon, it can only share 4 electrons because 4 of it are already filled. That is why carbon needs four chlorine to form CCl4. The answer is letter <u>B.</u></span>
