Answer:

The attractive force is negative and MgO has a higher melting point

Explanation:

From Couloumb's law:

Energy of interaction, E = k \frac{q1q2}{r}

where q1 and q2 are the charges of the ions, k is Coulomb's constant and r is the distance between both ions, i.e the atomic radii of the ions.

If you look at Coulomb's law, you note that in the force is negative (because q1 is negative while q2 is positive).

In addition to that, the compounds MgO and NaF have similar combined ionic radii, then we can determine the melting point trend from the amount of energy gotten

The melting point of ionic compounds is determined by 1. charge on the ions 2. size of ions. while NaF has smaller charges (+1 and -1), MgO (+2 and -2) has larger charges and greater combined atomic radii. This implies that the compound with greater force would have a higher melting point.

Hence the compound MgO would have a higher melting point than NaF.

6. If 4 mole of the rocket fuel ammonium perchlorate, NH4C/04 (s) is
Bond [772]

Answer:

144g of H₂O

Explanation:

3NH₄ClO₄(s) + 3Al → Al₂O₃(s) + AlCl₃(s) + 3NO(g) + 6H₂O(g)

From the equation:

3 moles of NH₄ClO₄ produced 6 moles of H₂O

4 moles of NH₄ClO₄ produced ? moles of H₂O

(4 ₓ 6)/3 = \frac{24}{3} = 8 moles of H₂O

1 mole of H₂O = (1 × 2) + 16 = 18g (The Relative Molecular mass of H₂O)

8 moles of H₂O = ?

Therefore 8 × 18 = 144g

=144g of H₂O

3. What is the easiest way to create electron configurations?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

To calculate an electron configuration, divide the periodic table into sections to represent the atomic orbitals, the regions where electrons are contained. Groups one and two are the s-block, three through 12 represent the d-block, 13 to 18 are the p-block and the two rows at the bottom are the f-block.Explanation:
