Answer: The formula of chromic acid is $H_2CrO_4$

Explanation:

We are given an ionic compound named as chromic acid. This acid is formed by the combination of hydrogen ion and chromate ion.

An acid is defined as the substance which releases hydrogen ion when dissolved in water.

Hydrogen is the 1st element of periodic table having electronic configuration of $1s^1$ .

This element will loose 1 electron to form $H^{+}$ ion.

Chromate ion is a polyatomic ion having chemical formula of $CrO_4^{2-}$

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 the given compound is $H_2CrO_4$

Thus, the formula of chromic acid is $H_2CrO_4$

Bf3 can be octet or not

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

(BH3 follows the octet rule by dimerizing, as Hadi Kurniawan AR pointed out.) For H and He, an "octet" = 2 electrons. Boron does prefer to follow the octet rule, in that it likes to form borate compounds such as NaBH4. It also is happy to form compounds with elements with lone pairs.

Mg + 2AgNO3 -> 2Ag + Mg(NO3)2

9966 [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

We'll assume there is an excess of silver nitrate, so that all 12.0 moles of the magnesium (Mg) will react.

The balanced equation tells us we'll obtain 2 moles of Ag for every 1 mole of magnesium, for a molar ratio of 2/1.

Starting with 12.00 moles Mg, we would therefore hope to find twice that, or 24.00 moles of Ag.

To convert to grams, find the molar mass of Ag from the periodic table.

Ag has a molar mass of 107.9 (to 4 sig figs) grams/mole.

(24.00 moles)*(107.9 grams/mole) = 2590 grams (4 sig figs)

Hands off, it's mine.

What condition must be met for a battery to be rechargeable?

Neko [114]

Answer:

D. The electrochemical reaction of the battery must be reversible.

Explanation:

The batteries are based on the production of an electric flux given by a redox reaction. This reaction is spontaneous and is thermodynamically favored.

Thus, when the reactants to the reaction are finished, the flow of current stops and ends. Therefore, when current is administered from another source, the reaction changes its direction and reagents that were previously consumed begin to occur. Therefore the condition for it to be rechargeable is that the reaction can go forward or backward, that is, it is reversible.
