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⁻

Based on your knowledge of energy conservation, which of the following statements is true?
Julli [10]
C. both a and b

If a light bulb can last longer with the same amount of energy it is given, that means it can use less energy to do the same job compared to one that does not last longer with the same amount of energy it is given. It is much like how a more fuel efficient car will be able to go farther on the same tank of gas, but if you pair it with a car that doesn't have as great of an mpg, when they go the same distance, the car with the greater mpg spends less fuel.

If you don't have to use the energy when you aren't utilizing it, then you can conserve the energy for when you do need it.

Which of the following is the correct equation for the reaction below?
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Option C.

2 Mg (s) + O₂(g) →  2MgO (s)

Explanation:

Two moles of magnesium solid react with one mol of oxygen gas to

form two moles of magnesium-oxide solid

2 Mg (s) + O₂(g) →  2MgO (s)

That's the reaction for the magnessium oxide's formation.

Be careful cause we do not say molecules, they are moles.

The stoichiometry indicates the number of moles that react and the moles which are produced.

It is a redox reaction, because the magnessium is oxidized and the oxygen is reduced. Both elements, changed the oxidation states.

For the following electrochemical reaction: Al3+(aq) + 3e -> Al(s) Eº = -1.66 V E° = 2.87 F2(g) + 2e -> 2F (aq) Calculate
makvit [3.9K]

<u>Answer:</u> The standard electrode potential of the cell is 4.53 V.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

E^o_{(F_2/F^-)}=2.87V\\E^o_{(Al^{3+}/Al)}=-1.66V

The substance having highest positive E^o potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, fluorine will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

Aluminium will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

To calculate the E^o_{cell} of the reaction, we use the equation:

E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}

E^o_{cell}=2.87-(-1.66)=4.53V

Hence, the standard electrode potential of the cell is 4.53 V.

An intravenous saline drip has 9.8 g of sodium chloride per liter of water. by definition, 1 ml = 1 cm3.
ELEN [110]
Missing question: Express the salt concentration in kg/m³.
Answer is: the salt concentration is 9.8 kg/m³.
m(NaCl) = 9.8 g ÷ 1000 g/kg.
m(NaCl) = 0.0098 kg.
V(solution) = 1 L = 1 dm³.
V(solution) = 1 dm³ ÷ 1000 dm³/m³.
V(solution) = 0.001 m³.
d(solution) = m(NaCl) ÷ V(solution).
d(solution) = 0.0098 kg ÷ 0.001 m³.
d(solution) = 9.8 kg/m³.
