Answer: The chemical formula of the given compound is $Cr_2(SO_4)_3$

Explanation:

The combination of chromium and sulfate ions leads to the formation of an ionic compound having chemical name as chromium (III) sulfate. The electrons get transferred from chromium atom to sulfate ion.

Chromium is the 24th element of the periodic table. It is a metal and it looses its electrons. The electronic configuration for this element is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{4}$

This element will loose 3 electrons and forms $Cr^{3+}$ ion.

Sulfate ion is a polyatomic ion having chemical formula of $SO_4^{2-}$

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

So, the chemical formula for chromium (III) sulfate is $Cr_2(SO_4)_3$

What causes the warm air to rise and cold air to sink

Natali5045456 [20]

The molecules in warm air are more expanded, move more rapidly and take up more room than in cold air. The expansion and movement of molecules makes it less dense, thus it rises above the cold air. Cold air molecules are more compressed, making them more still and packed together, thus making it more dense than warm air.

Balancing Chemical Equation C=H2=CH4

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

C + 2H2 ⇒ CH4

Explanation:

In order to balance a chemical equation you need to make sure that the number of atoms on both sides are equal

C + H2 = CH4

C = 1

H = 2

Products:

C = 1

H = 4

H2 = 2 × 2 = 4

C + 2H2 ⇒ CH4

Hope this helps.
