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⁻

What method would you use to obtain pure water from a mixture of water and ink
mel-nik [20]

Answer: Distillation

Explanation: Separate ink from water using a process called distillation. This is a process of separating two substances mixed together. Water vaporizes at a lower temperature than the ink pigment so if you heat them, the water evaporates, leaving the ink pigment in the flask.

A 5.00 mL sample of hydrochloric acid is titrated with 0.1293 M ammonia (a base). If the titration required 28.15 mL of ammonia,
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

1. C = 0.73 M.

2. pH = 0.14

       

Explanation:

The reaction is the following:

HCl + NH₃ ⇄ NH₄⁺Cl⁻

From the titration, we can find the number of moles of HCl that were neutralized by the ammonia.

n_{a} = n_{b}

Where "a" is for acid and "b" is for base.

The number of moles is:

n = C*V  

Where "C" is for concentration and "V" for volume.

C_{a}V_{a} = C_{b}V_{b}

C_{a} = \frac{0.1293 M*28.15 mL}{5.00 mL} = 0.73 M

Hence the initial concentration of the acid is 0.73 M.

The original pH of the acid is given by:

pH = -log([H^{+}])

pH = -log(0.73) = 0.14          

Therefore, the original pH of the acid is 0.14.

I hope it helps you!
