Chemistry
1 answer:
MakcuM [25]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Binary compounds of potassium and sulfur:

K₂S

Binary compounds of silver chlorine:

AgCl

Binary compounds of calcium and oxygen:

CaO

Binary compounds of aluminium and iodine:

AlI₃

Binary compounds of barium and nitrogen:

Ba₃ N₂

Binary compounds of sodium and selenium:

Na₂Se

Explanation:

Binary compounds:

The compounds which are made up of the atoms of only two elements are called binary compounds.

For example:

The following compounds are binary:

HCl

H₂O

NH₃

HCl is binary because it is composed of only hydrogen and chlorine. Ammonia is also binary compound because it is made up of only two elements nitrogen and hydrogen.

water is also binary because it is also made up of only two elements hydrogen and oxygen.

Binary compounds of potassium and sulfur:

K₂S

The oxidation state of potassium is +1 and sulfur is -2 so two atoms of potassium will combine with one atom of sulfur.

Binary compounds of silver chlorine:

AgCl

The oxidation state of silver is +1 and chlorine is -1. Both combine to form silver chloride.

Binary compounds of calcium and oxygen:

CaO

calcium oxide is formed by calcium and oxygen. The oxidation state of calcium is +2 and oxygen is -2.

Binary compounds of aluminium and iodine:

AlI₃

The oxidation state of aluminium is +3 and iodine is -1 so three atoms of iodine will combine with one atom of aluminium.

Binary compounds of barium and nitrogen:

Ba₃ N₂

Barium nitride is formed by barium and nitrogen. The oxidation state of nitrogen is -3 and barium is +2.

Binary compounds of sodium and selenium:

Na₂Se

The oxidation state of selenium is -2 ans sodium is +1 so two atoms of sodium will combine with one atom of selenium.

Which statement describes the charge and location of an electron in an atom?
NemiM [27]

Answer is: It has a negative charge and is located in orbitals around the nucleus.

The electron (symbol: e⁻) is a subatomic particle whose electric charge is negative one elementary charge.

Electrons are moving in energy levels around nucleus.

The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton.

Electrons have properties of both particles and waves.

The formula of nitrobenzene is c6h5no2. the molecular weight of this compound is __________ amu.
mafiozo [28]

The molecular weight of a given compound would simply the sum of the molar weights of each component.

 

The molar masses of the elements are:

C = 12 amu

H = 1 amu

N = 14 amu

O = 16 amu

where 1 amu = 1 g / mol

 

Since there are 6 C, 5 H, 1 N and 2 O, therefore the total molecular weight is:

molecular weight = 6 (12 amu) + 5 (1 amu) + 1 (14 amu) + 2 (16 amu)

molecular weight = 123 amu

 

Therefore the molecular weight of nitrobenzene is 123 amu or which is exactly equivalent to 123 g / mol.
