Answer:
            The formula of Organic acid is as follow,

                                                 R-COOH

Explanation:
                   The class of organic acids is called Carboxylic Acids. In above general structure, R is alkyl group and can vary. While -COOH is the functional group. 
                    Carboxylic Acids has the tendency to loose protons and their pKa value depends upon the alkyl group. For example the pKa value of Acetic acid (R = -CH₃) is 4.7. The driving force for this acidity is the stability of carboxylate (conjugate base) due resonance. i.e

                               RCOOH     ⇄    RCOO⁻  +  H⁺
Where;
            RCOO⁻  =  Carboxylate Ion (Conjugate base)

52. Classify each compound as ionic or molecular. If it is ionic,
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

1...............

CoCl₂ is an ionic compound

CF₄ is molecular

BaSO₄ is an ionic compound

NO is molecular

An ionic compound is a compound which forms between a metal and non-metal. It involves the formation of a bond between two ions of significant electronegative difference. It results from the electrostatic force of attraction between two atoms in which one has lost an electron(metal) and the other that has gained an electron(non-metal).

     CoCl₂ is an ionic compound

     BaSO₄ is also ionic

A molecular compound is formed as a result of covalent bonds between atoms. This is due to the fact that the two atoms have similar electronegativities and would both pull the shared electrons closely. Most molecules are usually formed this way.

      CF₄ and NO are both molecular compounds

2...... The ionic compounds are the ones containing metals:

         In CoCl₂ the metal is Co, cobalt

             BaSO₄ has Ba

 Co is a transition metal. Transition elements are known to have various oxidation states. This implies that they can form more than one type of ion. The oxidation number of Co are -1, 0, +1, +2, +3 and +4

 Ba will only form one type of ion as an alkaline earth metal. It has an oxidation state of +2 only. It will only form one type of ion.

on (III) oxide is formed when iron combines with oxygen in the air. How many moles of Fe2O3 are formed when 28.1 g of Fe reacts
Iteru [2.4K]
Reaction between Iron and oxygen to form iron (iii) oxide is written as;
4Fe (s) + 3O2(g) = 2Fe2O3(s)
1mole of iron contains 56 g, hence,
28.1 g of iron contains 28.1/56 = 0.502 moles
To get the moles of iron (iii) oxide formed we use the mole ratio
mole ratio of iron : iron (iii) oxide = 4 : 2
Therefore, moles of iron(iii) oxide will be given by 0.502×2/4 = 0.251 moles
hence, the answer is 0.251 moles of iron(iii) oxide
