How are ionic bonds formed

Chemistry
1 answer:
kiruha [24]3 years ago
4 0
Ionic bonds are formed as one atom the metal gives up or transfers one of its valence electron to the other atom that would then be able to accept it. This other atom is a non metal. This process occurs because the atoms want to become more stable by each of them satisfying the octet rule. In which atoms would have a maximum of 8 valence electrons.

In this simulation what do you think the bread and cheese separately represent, the atom or the molecule?
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

the atom

Explanation:

The bread and cheese separately represent the atom because both bread and cheese are different from one another and we cannot assume it as a molecule because molecules formed when the group of atoms combine together by making bonds with each other and we know that bread and cheese did not make bonds with each other, they only attached, so we called them atoms not molecule.

Balance the following equation:
Firdavs [7]

Answer: a) 2K_2CrO_4+3Na_2SO_3+10HCl\rightarrow 4KCl+3Na_2SO_4+2CrCl_3+5H_2O

b) 1 mole of SO_2 is produced.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The skeletal equation is:

K_2CrO_4+Na_2SO_3+HCl\rightarrow KCl+Na_2SO_4+CrCl_3 +H_2O

The balanced equation will be:

2K_2CrO_4+3Na_2SO_3+10HCl\rightarrow 4KCl+3Na_2SO_4+2CrCl_3+5H_2O

Thus the coefficients are 2, 3 , 10 , 4 , 3 , 2 and 5.

b) Oxidation: 2I-^-\rightarrow I_2+2e-^-

Reduction: SO_4^{2-}+2e^-+4H^+\rightarrow SO_2+2H_2O

Net reaction:  2I-^-+SO_4^{2-}+4H^+\rightarrow I_2+SO_2+2H_2O

When 1 mole of I_2 is produced, 1 mole of SO_2 is produced.

Which element is reduced in the following reaction: 2Mg+O₂ → 2MgO if Mg goes from 0 to +2 and O goes from 0 to -2?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

O.

Explanation:

  • The element which is oxidized is the element that losses electrons and its oxidation state be more positive.
  • The element which is reduced is the element that gain electrons and its oxidation state be more negative.

<em> O goes from 0 to -2, so, it is the element that is reduced.</em>

A sample of a compound is found to contain 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen, and 53.3% oxygen. What is the empirical formula of this
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The empirical formula is CH2O, and the molecular formula is some multiple of this

Explanation:

In 100 g of the unknown, there are 40.0⋅g12.011⋅g⋅mol−1 C;  6.7⋅g1.00794⋅g⋅mol−1 H; and  53.5⋅g16.00⋅g⋅mol−1 O.

We divide thru to get, C:H:O = 3.33:6.65:3.34. When we divide each elemental ratio by the LOWEST number, we get an empirical formula of CH2O, i.e. near enough to WHOLE numbers. Now the molecular formula is always a multiple of the empirical formula; i.e. (EF)n=MF.So 60.0⋅g⋅mol−1=n×(12.011+2×1.00794+16.00)g⋅mol−1.Clearly n=2, and the molecular formula is 2×(CH2O) = CxHyOz.
