Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of lithium and oxygen will be $Li_2O$

Explanation:

Ionic bond is defined as the bond which is formed when complete transfer of electrons takes place from one atom to another atom.

Lithium is the 3rd element of the periodic table with electronic configuration of $1s^22s^1$

This element looses 1 electron and shows an oxidation state of +1.

Oxygen is the 8th element of the periodic table with electronic configuration $1s^22s^22p^4$

This element will gain 2 electrons and shows an oxidation state of -2.

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of oxygen becomes the coefficient of lithium and that of lithium becomes of oxygen.

Hence, the chemical formula for the compound obtained by the combination of lithium and oxygen is $Li_2O$

One solution turns blue. A possible hydrogen ion

aalyn [17]

Answer:

1x10^-8 M

Explanation:

Since the solution turns blue, it mean the solution is a base.

Now, to know which option is correct, we need to determine the pH of each solution. This is illustrated below:

1. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 1x10^-2 M

pH =..?

pH = - log [H+]

pH = - log 1x10^-2

pH = 2

2. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 5x10-2 M

pH =..?

pH = - log [H+]

pH = - log 5x10^-2

pH = 1.3

3. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 5x10 M

pH =..?

pH = - log [H+]

pH = - log 5x10

pH = - 1.7

4. Concentration of Hydrogen ion, [H+] = 1x10-8 M

pH =..?

pH = - log [H+]

pH = - log 1x10^-8

pH = 8

A pH reading shows if the solution is acidic or basic. A pH reading between 0 and 6 indicates an acidic solution, a pH reading of 7 indicates a neutral solution while a pH reading between 8 and 14 indicates a basic solution.

From the above calculations, the pH reading indicates a basic solution when the hydrogen ion concentration was 1x10^-8 M.

A 250.0-ml sample of ammonia, nh3 (g), exerts a pressure of 833 torr at 42.4 °c. what mass of ammonia is in the container

Lelu [443]

To solve this, let's assume ideal gas behavior.

PV=nRT
Let's solve for n. Convert units to SI units first.

Pressure = 833 torr(101325 Pa/760 torr) = 111,057.53 Pa
Volume = 250 mL(1 L/1000 mL)(1 m³/1000 L) = 2.5×10⁻⁴ m³
Temperature = 42.4 + 273 = 315.4 K

n = (8,314 J/mol·K)(315.4 K)/(111057.53 Pa)(2.5×10⁻⁴ m³)
n = 94.45 mol

The molar mass of ammonia is 17.031 g/mol.
Mass = 94.45*17.031 = 1,608.51 g ammonia
