natali 33 [55]

Answer:

+1

Explanation:

For the equation to be balanced, the total mass number and the total atomic number on both side of the equation but be equal.

This is illustrated:

For the mass number:

Left side: 22

Right side: 22 + 0 = 22

For the atomic number:

Left side: 11

Right side: 10 + x

11 = 10 + x

Collect like terms

x = 11 - 10

x = 1

See attachment for further explanation.

Name the following covalent compound:
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Pentasulfur nonanitride.

Explanation:

In order to name a compound properly, we need to identify the type of a compound we have. The given compound consists of two non-metals, sulfur and nitrogen. This implies that we have a covalent compound in contrast to an ionic compound which consists of a metal and a non-metal.

To name a molecular/covalent compound, we should use prefixes stating the number of atoms we have. In this case, we have 5 sulfur atoms. The prefix for 5 is 'penta'. That said, we have 'pentasulfur' as our beginning of the name.

We also have 9 nitrogen atoms. The second atom in the molecular formula would have an ending of '-ide', so we expect to have 'nitride'. Adding a prefix for 9, we'd have 'nonanitride'.

Putting everything together, the name is pentasulfur nonanitride.

Some common prefixes:

mono – one (we don't state mono for the first atom, e. g., we would name CO as carbon monoxide instead of monocarbon monoxide);

di – two;

tri – three;

tetra – four;

penta – five;

hexa – six;

hepta – seven;

octa – eight;

nona – nine;

deca – ten.

Notice that 'decanitride' would be correct in case you had 10 nitrogen atoms, similarly, tetra and hexa stand for 4 and 6 instead of 5 given sulfur atoms.
