Answer : The correct option is, sodium sulfide

Explanation :

The given formula is, $Na_2S$

The rules for the naming of the binary molecular compound are :

First element in the formula is named first and keep its element name.
Gets a prefix if there is a subscript on it.
Second element is named second.
Use the root of the element name plus suffix (-ide).
Always use a prefix on the second element.

In the given formula, the first element is (Na) sodium and the second element is sulfur. Thus, the chemical name of the compound is, sodium sulfide.

Therefore, the chemical name for the compound with the formula $Na_2S$ is, sodium sulfide.

I think it's Sodium Sulfide, because Na2S contains one Sodium and two Sulfur. Plus Sulfide<span> is used to describe any of three types of chemical compounds that contain sulfur.</span>

Which characteristic is given by the angular momentum quantum number

Marianna [84]

Answer: orbital shape.

Justification:

1) There are four quantum numbers to describe the electrons. These are:

i) Principal quantum number (n)

ii) Azimuthal quantum number (ℓ), also called angular momentum quantum number.

iii) Magnetic quantum number (m)

iv) Spin quantum number (s)

2) The principal quantum number tells the main energy level. It can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. It is related with the orbial size. 1 is a small orbital, 7 is a big orbital.

2) The Azimuthal quantum number (ℓ) or angular momentum quantum number may be a number between 0 and n - 1.

It tells the kind of orbital, which is its shape

The correspondence is:

0 = s orbital,

1 = p orbital,

2 = d orbital,

3 = f orbital.

3) Magnetic quantum number (m) tells the orientation. It can be from - ℓ to + ℓ

For example when ℓ = 1, the orbital is p, and the magnetic quantum number may be -1, 0, or +1, which correspond to px, py, pz: the orientation of the p orbital in the space.

4) Spin quantum number (s) can be either +1/2 or -1/2.

. Write the balanced equation, then outline the steps necessary to determine the information requested in each of the following:

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) The equation of the reaction is;

2Na + Cl2 ------>2NaCl

Number of moles of sodium = 10g/23 g/mol = 0.43 moles

If 2 moles of sodium reacts with 1 mole of Cl2

0.43 moles reacts with 0.43 * 1/2 = 0.215 moles of Cl2

Mass = 0.215 moles of Cl2 *71 g/mol = 15.265 g

b) Equation of the reaction;

HgO -> Hg + O2

1.252 moles of HgO 1.252/32 gmol = 0.039 moles

1 mole of HgO yields 1 mole of oxygen hence

0.039 moles of HgO yields 0.039 moles of oxygen

Mass of oxygen = 0.039 moles * 32 g/mol = 1.248 g

c) Equation of the reaction;

2NaNO3 -----> 2NaNO2 + O2

Number of moles of 128 g of oxygen = 128g/32 g/mol = 4 moles

2 moles of NaNO3 yields 1 mole of oxygen

x moles of NaNO3 yields 4 moles of oxygen

x = 8 moles of NaNo3

Mass of NaNO3 = 8 * 85 g/mol = 680 g of NaNo3

Balance the 2 chemical equation below: 1) _____H2 + _____02 ---> _____H20 2) _____CH4 + _____Cl2 ---> _____CCl4 + _____HCl

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

1.) 2H2 + O2 ---> 2H2O

2.) CH4 + 4Cl2 ---> CCl4 + 4HCl

Explanation:

In order to balance the equation, you have to make sure there are the same amount of each element on both sides.

Ex (#1). By adding the coefficients infront of H2 and H20, You now have 4 hydrogen's and 2 oxygens on the left side as well as 4 hydrogens and 2 oxygens on the right side.

Sorry if that's confusing, but hope this helps! :)

✞Why is propane stored in household tanks but natural gas is not?♡♡♡

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

In order to keep propane a liquid at room temperature (70° F or 21° C), it has to be held in a tank at a pressure of about 850 kPa. ... Household metal tanks cannot withstand this pressure. In short, natural gas is not stored in household tanks because the symmetry of its molecule makes it hard to liquify.
