Pluto isn't really close to the sun but from my prior perspective I don't really remember
Answer:
Blank #1: Polyatomic
Blank #2: 2 (see explanation)
Blank #3: 1 (see explanation)
Explanation
Both the ammonium ion and the sulfate ion contain more than one atom in each ion. The two species are thus polyatomic. The chloride ion , for example, is monoatomic.
Superscripts above formulae of the ions indicate their charge. Each ammonium ion carries a positive one (+1) charge. Each sulfate ion carries a charge of negative two (-2).
Ammonium sulfate is an ionic compound. A sample of this compound contain myriads of ammonium ions and sulfate ions. The ions are packed in three-dimensional lattices. Thus unlike water, ammonium sulfate does not exist as molecules in nature.
Assuming that the second and third blanks refers to a formula unit, rather than a molecule, of ammonium sulfate. The empirical formula of ammonium sulfate gives the minimum whole-number ratio between the two ions in a sample.
Charges shall balance between the two ions. Ammonium ions are of charge +1. Sulfate ions are of charge -2. The sample shall thus contain two ammonium ions for every one sulfate ion.
The empirical formula of ammonium sulfate is therefore .
There are thus two ammonium ions and one sulfate ion in each formula unit of ammonium sulfate.
Answer:
Neutral
Explanation:
pKa of acid = -log Ka
= -log (1.8 x 10^-5)
= 4.74
pKb of base = -log Kb
= 4.74
pKa of acid = pKb of base
salt pH formula : pH = 7 + 1/2 [pKa -pKb ]
here pKa = pKb
so pH = 7
the salt it is CH3COONH4 exactly neutral solution .
Answer: C.) Xe
Explanation: To figure out the answer go to the Noble Gas Family and count down 5 elements.
The name would be Magnesium sulfate monohydrate. It is also called Kieserite. It is a compound that is white and fine-grained. It is a mineral that consists of hydrated magnesium sulfate that occurs in the salt mines of Europe and India.
