Answer:
B. Ionic Compound
Explanation:
An ionic compound is that compound which contains a positively charged ion called CATION and a negatively charged ion called ANION. The cation loses or transfers electrons to the anion, hence, making the former (cation) positive and the latter (anion) negative.
A polyatomic ion is an ion that contains more than one type of atom e.g OH-, NO3²-, CO3²- etc. A polyatomic ion usually has an overall charge formed from the charges of the individual atoms that makes it up. For example, in OH-, the overall charge is -1.
Since a polyatomic ion can have an overall positive or negative charge, it must enter a reaction with another ion that complements it i.e. a negative polyatomic ion will react with a positive ion to neutralize its charge. Hence, this forms an IONIC COMPOUND. This is why most compounds with polyatomic ions are IONIC COMPOUNDS.
For example, CaCO3 is an ionic compound formed when Ca²+ (cation) reacts with the polyatomic anion: CO3²-
Answer:
6.022 × 10²² atoms
Explanation:
Generally 1 mol of any element contains 6.02×10^23 atoms. The number 6.022 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro's number.
Mass of Aluminium = 2.70g
Molar mass = 27g/mol
Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 2.70 / 27 = 0.1 mol
1 mol = 6.022 × 10²³
0.1 mol = x
x = 6.022 × 10²³ * 0.1 = 6.022 × 10²² atoms
<u>Answer:</u> The molality of magnesium chloride is 1.58 m
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:
Where,
= Given mass of solute (magnesium chloride) = 75.0
= Molar mass of solute (magnesium chloride) = 95.21 g/mol
= Mass of solvent = 500.0 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the molality of magnesium chloride is 1.58 m
Answer:
Magnesium and calcium belong to the second group i. e. alkaline earth metals. They are known as earth metals because they are extracted from the earth. They are very reactive elements. Their reactivity increases when we go from top to bottom because the outermost electrons goes farther from the nucleus i. e. atomic radius increases so less energy is needed for its removal.
