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⁻

A fruit-and-oatmeal bar contains 142 nutritional Calories. Convert this energy to calories
madreJ [45]

Answer:

a fruit and oatmeal bar contains 142000 calories.

A nutritional calorie, or kilocalorie, is equal to 1000 calories.

E = 142 kcal · 1000 cal/kcal.

E = 142 000 cal.

Calorie (cal), or small calorie, is the amount of energy needed to heat one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

One small calorie is approximately 4.2 joules.

A calorie is a unit of energy.

What is the frequency of a wave traveling west with a velocity of 414 meters per second and a wavelength of 1.8 meters? hertz
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

230hz

Explanation:

Hello,

To solve this question, we gave to use the relationship between velocity-frequency-wavelength to find the frequency in this question.

V = Fλ

V = velocity or speed of the wave

F = frequency of the wave

λ = wavelength of the wave

Data;

V = 414m/s

λ = 1.8m

f = ?

V = fλ

f = v/λ

f = 414/1.8

f = 230hz

The frequency of the wave is 230hz

Comparing weak acids and strong acids of equal concentrations which of the following statements is true The pH of the weak acid
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

the true statement is... The pH of the weak acid will be higher than the pH of the strong acid

Explanation:

pH is a measured of the extent to which acids dissociate into ions when plced in aqueous solution.

Strong acid dissociate near-completely, and weak acids barely dissociate.

At equal concentrations, a strong acid will have a lower pH than a weak acid, since the strong one will donate more proton to the solution.

What is the order of increasing rate of eusion for the following gases, Ar, CO2, H2, N2?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

H2 > N2 > Ar > CO2

Explanation:

Graham's law explains why some gases efuse faster than others. This is due to the difference i their molar mass. Generally; The rate of effusion of gaseous substances is inversely proportional to the square rot of its molar mass.

This means gases with low molar masses would have higher efusion rate compared to gases with higher molar masses.

So now we just need to compare the molar masses of the various gases;

Ar - 39.95

CO2 - 44.01

H2 - 2

N2 - 28.01

To obtain the order in increasing rate, we have to order the gases in decreasing molar mass. This order of increasing rate is given as;

H2 > N2 > Ar > CO2
