The speed v of a sound wave traveling in a medium that has bulk modulus b and mass density ρ (mass divided by the volume) is v=b

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

As it is given that Bulk modulus and density related to velocity of sound

$v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}}$

by rearranging the equation we can say

$B = \rho * v^2$

now we need to find the SI unit of Bulk modulus here

we can find it by plug in the units of density and speed here

$B = \frac{kg}{m^3} * (\frac{m}{s})^2$

so SI unit will be

$B = \frac{kg}{m* s^2}$

SO above is the SI unit of bulk Modulus

A type of Lead (Pb) ion has a + 4 oxidation number. Sulfur (S) has a — 2 oxidation number. What would be the chemical formula fo

serious [3.7K]

Answer: The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is $PbS_2$

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here metal lead is having an oxidation state of +4 called as $Pb^{4+}$ cation and sulphur non metal has oxidation state of -2 called as $S^{2-}$ . Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral $PbS_2$

The chemical formula for the compound of these two elements is $PbS_2$
