What caused the bonding of two atoms which undergo an ionic bond?

Keith_Richards [23]

C. As we know, an atom is made of three parts--protons (+), neutrons (core), and electrons (-) When one of these atoms loses one or more electron(s), it becomes a cation, or a positively charged ion. Inversely, when this atom gains a positively charged ion, [the atom] becomes a negatively charged atom, or an anion. The bond is made through electrostatic attraction, and a bond between these two "halves of a whole", it is known as an ionic bond.

A student balances the following redox reaction using half-reactions.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: 6.

Explanation:

1) Aluminum

$Al^0-3e^----\ \textgreater \ Al^{3+}$

So each atom of aluminum lost 3 electrons to pass from 0 oxidation state to 3+ oxidation state.

2) Manganesium

$Mn^{2+}+2e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ Mn$

So, each ion of Mn(2+) gained 2 electrons pass from 2+ oxidation state to 0.

3) Balance

Multiply aluminum half-reaction (oxidation) by 2 and multiply manganesium half-raction (reduction) by 3:

$2Al^{0}-6e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ 2Al^{3+}

3Mn^{2+}+6e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ 3Mn^{0}$

4) Net equation

Add the two half-equations:

$2Al^{0}+3Mn^{2+}----\ \textgreater \ 2Al^{3+}+3Mn^{0}$

As you see the left side has 2 Al, 3Mn, and 3*2 positive charges.

The right side has 2 Al, 3 Mn, and 2*3 positive charges.

So, the equation is balanced.

5) Count the number of electrons involved.

As you see 2 atoms of aluminum lost 6 electrons (3 each).

That is the answer to the question. 6 electrons will be lost.

A 12.5 g sample of granite initially at 82.0 oc is immersed into 25.0 g of water that is initially at 22.0 oc. what is the final

Paraphin [41]

The amount of heat lost by granite is equal to the amount of heat gained by water. Therefore their change in enthalpies must be equal. The opposite in sign means that one is gaining while the other is losing

ΔH granite = - ΔH water

ΔH is the change in enthalpy experienced by a closed object as it undergoes change in energy. This is expressed mathematically as,

ΔH = m Cp (T2 – T1)

Given this information, we can say that:

12.5 g * 0.790 J / g ˚C * (T2 – 82 ˚C) = - 25.0 g * 4.18 J / g ˚C * (T2 – 22 ˚C)

9.875 (T2 – 82) = 104.5 (22 – T2)

9.875 T2 – 809.75 = 2299 – 104.5 T2

114.375 T2 = 3108.75

T2 = 27.18 ˚C

The temperature of 2 objects after reaching thermal equilibrium is 27.18 ˚<span>C.</span>

What are the charges of families 1, 2, & 13 (boron family) if/when they become Ions

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Group one elements are alkali metals. All alkali metal have one valance electron. They loses their one valance electron and from cation with charge of +1.

Charges on group one.

Hydrogen = +1

Lithium = +1

Sodium = +1

Potassium = +1

Rubidium = +1

Cesium = +1

Francium = +1

Group two elements are alkaline earth metals. All alkaline earth metal have two valance electron. They loses their two valance electron and from cation with charge of +2.

Charges on group two.

Beryllium = +2

Magnesium = +2

Calcium = +2

Strontium = +2

Barium= +2

Radium = +2

Group 13 elements are boron family. All elements have three valance electrons. They loses their three valance electron and from cation with charge of +3.

Charges on group 13.

Boron = +3

Aluminium = +3

Gallium = +3

Indium = +3

Thallium= +3

Group 13 elements are also shows +1 charge by losing one valance electron.
