Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed together by a cation and an anion. A cation is an ion with a positive charge. For example, Na+ and Ca2+. An ion has a negative charge, like Cl- and OH-. There is a greater chance of forming an ionic compound when they have a great difference in electronegativity, the ability to attract electrons toward itself. In the periodic table, elements that are opposite to each other, more likely found in opposite sides, would be more apt to form an ionic compound. Example would be NaCl and CaCl2 or Ca(OH)2.
Answer: 8, which is basic
Explanation: The hydrogen ion concentration is 1.0 x 10^-8 mole per liter. Using [H+] = 1.0 x 10 -(pH) the pH is 8. A pH above 7 is basic.
Answer:
MnO- Manganese Oxide
Explanation:
Empirical formula: This is the formula that shows the ratio of elements
present in a
compound.
How to determine Empirical formula
1. First arrange the symbols of the elements present in the compound
alphabetically to determine the real empirical formula. Although, there
are exceptions to this rule, E.g H2So4
2. Divide the percentage composition by the mass number.
3. Then divide through by the smallest number.
4. The resulting answer is the ratio attached to the elements present in
a compound.
Mn O
% composition 72.1 27.9
Divide by mass number 54.94 16
1.31 1.74
Divide by the smallest number 1.31 1.31
1 1.3
The resulting ratio is 1:1
Hence the Empirical formula is MnO, Manganese oxide
Answer:
Density is a physical property that is determined by dividing the mass of a given amount of a substance by its volume.
