<span>Sodium chloride is formed when sodium atoms interact with chlorine atoms. When this occurs, sodium will donate an electron (which is a negatively-charged particle) to chlorine. This makes sodium slightly positive and chlorine slightly negative. ... So then, sodium ions will attract chloride ions and form an ionic bond.</span>
All halogens are stable so they have 8 electrons in their last shell
Answer:
CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)
Explanation:
According to this question, sodium carbonate reacts with sulfuric acid to form aqueous sodium sulfate, carbon dioxide and water. The balanced chemical equation is as follows:
Na2CO3(aq) + H2SO4(aq) → Na2SO4(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
- Next, split compounds that are aqueous into ions.
2Na+(aq) + CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → 2Na+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
- Next, we cancel out the spectator ions, which are ions that remain the same in the reactants and products side of a chemical reaction. The spectator ions in this equation are 2Na+(aq) and SO42-(aq).
CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)
- Hence, the balanced ionic equation is as follows:
CO32-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)
Answer:
XZ2
Explanation:
There are different ways in which compounds can be represented. Broadly, we have three different types of formula;
- Structural formular: This shows how th atoms in te compound are connected to each other.
- Molecular formular: This shows the actual number of atoms of element present in the compound
- Empirical Formular: This is the simplest formular of a compound. It basically shows the number of atoms in simple ration to each other.
This question requires us to input the empirical formular;
X2Z4
The ratio of the elements is; 2 : 4 which can be simplified into 1 : 2
This means the empirical formular is XZ2
