Answer:

Cation = Mn³⁺

Anion = CO₃²⁻

Explanation:

An ionic compound is formed by a combination of positive and negative ions that are held together by ionic bonds.

The positively charged ions have a tendency to lose electrons and are called cations. In contrast the negatively charged ions called anions show a tendency to accept or attract electrons. In general, metals show a propensity to lose electrons thereby forming cations.

The given compound is: Mn₂(CO₃)₃ i.e. manganese carbonate

Here, manganese Mn is a transition metal and therefore will be the cation.

The anion is the polyatomic species, carbonate which carries a charge of -2.

Since the molecule is neutral the charges need to be balanced. If the charge on Mn is say'x' then:

2x +(3)(-2) = 0

i.e. x = +3

Hence:

Cation = Mn³⁺

Anion = CO₃²⁻

Answer:

2 chloride ion, Cl¯

Explanation:

The formula for calcium chloride is CaCl₂.

Next, we shall write the balanced dissociation equation for calcium chloride, CaCl₂. This is illustrated below:

CaCl₂ (aq) —> Ca²⁺ + 2Cl¯

From the balanced equation above,

We can see that calcium chloride, CaCl₂ contains 1 calcium ion, Ca²⁺ and 2 chloride ion, Cl¯.

Therefore, we can conclude that for every 1 calcium ion, Ca²⁺, there are 2 chloride ion, Cl¯.

Periodic table the first row of elements fits in the period blank after the element blank the second row of elements fits in per
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The first row fits in period 2

The second row fits in period 3

Explanation:

Elements arranged vertically in the periodic table in groups that share similar chemical properties.

Elements are also organized horizontally in rows or periods

The length of each period is determined by the number of electrons that can occupy the sublevels being filled in that period.

Theoretically, how many moles of carbonic acid will be produced by 3.00 g sample of NaHCO3?
Kryger [21]
NaHCO3 = 22.99 + 1.008 + 16(3) = 83.99 g/mol 

Na = 22.99g/83.99 g weight of molecule =.2727 or 27.27% 

3.0 g* .2727 = 0.8211 grams of sodium in sample of NaHCO3 

0.8211 grams Na + 1.266 grams Cl = 2.087 grams
