Answer: transferred, atoms , ions

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.

For formation of an ionic compound, the metal lose electrons to form positively charged ions called as cations and non metals gain electrons to form negatively charged ions called as anions.

For example:

Sodium atom will loose one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form sodium cation with +1 charge.

$[Na^+]=1s^22s^22p^63s^0$

Chlorine atom will gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form chloride ion with -1 charge.

$[Cl^-]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6$

Which of the following equations does not demonstrate the law of conservation of mass?

enot [183]

The third option does not obey the law of conservation of mass.

Option 3.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that the sum of the masses of reactants should be equal to the sum of the masses of the products.

For example, if we consider the first option to verify if it obeys law of conservation of mass or not, 2 Na + Cl₂ → 2 NaCl

So one way to verify it is to find the mass of Na, then multiply it with 2, and then add this with 2 times of mass of chlorine. So this sum should be equal to the 2 times mass of NaCl. But it is somewhat lengthy.

Another way to easily determine this is to check if the elements are present equally in both sides. Such as, in reactant side and product side 2 atoms of Na is present . Similarly, the Cl atoms are also present in equal number in both reactant and product side. Thus this obeyed the law of conservation of mass.

Like this, if we see the second option, there also 1 atom of Na is present in reactant and product side and 2 molecules of H is present in reactant and product side, 1 oxygen is present in reactant and product side and 1 Cl is present in reactant and product side. So it also obeys the law of conservation of mass.

But in the third option, P₄ + 5 O₂→ 2 P₄O₁₀, here, there is 4 atoms of P in reactant side but in product side there is (4*2) = 8 atoms of P. Similarly, the number of atoms of oxygen in reactants and product side is also not same. So the third option does not obey the law of conservation of mass.

The fourth option also obeys the law of conservation of mass as the number of atoms of each element is same in both the product and reactant side.

Thus, the third option does not obey the law of conservation of mass.

Can you please help me?

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

60 moles of NaF

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

Al(NO3)3 + 3NaF —> 3NaNO3 + AlF3

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of NaF reacted to produce 1 mole of AlF3.

Therefore, Xmol of NaF will react to produce 20 moles of AlF3 i.e

Xmol of NaF = 3 x 20

Xmol of NaF = 60 moles

Therefore, 60 moles of NaF are required to produce 20 moles of AlF3.

If the atomic mass of 1 oxygen atom is 15.9994 amu, how much mass does of oxygen have?

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Oxygen's atomic weight is 16.00 amu. 1 mole of oxygen is 6.02 x 1023 atoms of oxygen 1 amu = 1.661 x 10-24g What is the molar mass (g/mole) of oxygen? Molar mass (in grams) is always equal to the atomic weight of the atom! Molar mass (in grams) is always equal to the atomic weight of the atom!

Which of the following reactions have a positive ΔSrxn? Check all that apply.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The reactions that have a positive ΔS rxn are the first and the fourth choices:

2A(g) + B(s) → 3C(g)

2A(g) + 2B(g) → 5C(g)

Explanation:

ΔS rxn is the change of entropy of the chemical reaction.

ΔS rxn = S after reaction - S before reaction.

Therefore, a positive ΔS rxn means that the entropy after the reaction is greater than the entropy before the reaction.

You may use some assumptions to predict whether a reaction will lead an increase or decrease of the entropy.

First, assume that all the non-shown conditions, such as temperature and pressure, are constant.

Under that assumption, and from the meaning of entropy as a measure of the disorder or randomness of a system you can predict the sign of the change of entropy.

2A(g) + B(s) → 3C(g)

1) The solid compounds, B(s) in this case, are very ordered and so they have low entropy.

2) Gas molecules are highly disordered (scattered), and the greater the number of molecules of the gas the larger the entropy, S).

Hence, since the product side shows 3 gas molecules and the reactant side shows 2 gas molecules and 1 solid molecule, you predict that the products have a larger entropy than the reactants, meaning an increase in entropy: ΔS rxn is positive.

2A(g) + B(g) → C(g)

Using the same reasoning, 3 gas molecules in the reactant side have more entropy than 1 molecule in the product side, and so the reaction leads to a decrease in the entropy: ΔS rxn is negative

A(g) + B(g) → C(g)

Again, 2 gas molecules in the reactant side have more entropy than 1 molecule in the product side, and so the reaction leads to a decrease in the entropy: ΔS rxn is negative

2A(g) + 2B(g) → 5C(g)

With the same reasoing, 5 molecules in the product side, lets you predict that will have more entropy than 4 molecules in the reactant side, and, the entropy will increase: ΔS rxn is positive.
