These types of molecules are called hydrates. They have a certain number of moles attached to the salt. Their characteristic is being hygroscopic. That means that when they are exposed to air, they readily solvate.
The formula for Manganese Fluoride Decahydrate will involve the formula Mn, F and H₂O. In ionic form, Manganese is Mn⁺² while fluoride is in F⁻. When they are brought together, their superscripts are 'cross-multiplied' and becomes their respective subscripts. The compound becomes MnF₂. Then, we add the decahydrate which means 10 moles of H₂O. Hence, the formula for Manganese Fluoride Decahydrate is MnF₂*10H₂O.
Answer:
d.) It is a binary molecular compound.
Explanation:
The compound in question has a formula 
. The compound is not acidic in nature and the element 'M' is not a metal. This shows that the compound does not contain any metal. Based on the definition of a binary molecular compound as a compound comprising elements that are not metals. Therefore, the compound is obviously a binary molecular compound.
Answer:
Lithium hydroxide is a base.
Carbon dioxide is the anhydride of the carbonic acid, H₂CO₃.
Therefore, the reaction awaited is a typical neutralization reaction with the formation of a salt and water.
2LiOH + CO₂ → Li₂CO₃ + H₂O
So, 2*20 = 40 moles of LiOH react with 20 moles of CO₂.
Molar Mass of LiOH = 23.95 g/mol
So, 40 * 23.95 = 958 g
Explanation:
a) Anode:
Cathode :
b)
c) As , the reaction is spontaneous.
d)
Explanation:
a) Here Ni undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. Hydrogen undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.
Anode:
Cathode :
b) The representation is given by writing the anode on left hand side followed by its ion with its molar concentration. It is followed by a slat bridge. Then the cathodic ion with its molar concentration is written and then the cathode.
c)
Where both are standard reduction potentials.
= +ve, reaction is spontaneous
= -ve, reaction is non spontaneous
= 0, reaction is in equilibrium
Thus as , the reaction is spontaneous.
d) The standard emf of a cell is related to Gibbs free energy by following relation:
= standard gibbs free energy
n= no of electrons gained or lost
F= faraday's constant
= standard emf
Thus value of Gibbs free energy is -48250 Joules.
