Answer: Yes the formula of the compound formed is Fe_2S_3

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.  

If iron is having an oxidation state of +3 called as Fe^{3+} cation. Sulphur is an anion with oxidation state of -2 and forms sulphide ion S^{2-}. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral Fe_2S_3.

The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.

What volume is occupied by 2.1 g O2 at 13 C and a pressure of 0.1atm?
Monica [59]

PV=nRT

n = mole = 2.1 g : 32 g/mole = 0.065

T = 13 + 273 = 286 K

V = nRT/P

V = (0.065 x 0.08205 x  286)/0.1

V = 15.253 L

What types of reactions are these 3 chemical equations?-
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

*2Kl+Pb(NO3)2=PbI2+2KNO3: double replacement.

*2Al+3CuSO4=Al2(SO4)3+3Cu: single replacement.

*C2H5OH+3O2=2CO2+3H2O: combustion.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the required, it turns out necessary for us to recall the five types of reactions, combination, decomposition, single and double replacement and combustion as shown on the attached figure.

In such a way, since the first reaction follows the pattern AB+CD-->AD+CB we infer it is double replacement; the second reaction follows the patter A+BC-->AC+B and therefore it is single replacement; and the last one follows the pattern of combustion reaction due to the presence of CO2 and H2O on the products side.

Regards!

In the reaction MgCl2 + 2KOH → Mg(OH)2 + 2KCI, how many grams of KOH
dsp73

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. (2)(56 g)

Explanation:

MgCl₂ + 2KOH → Mg(OH)₂ + 2KCl

From the balanced chemical reaction equation, we have;

One mole of MgCl₂ reacts with  two moles of KOH to produce one mole of Mg(OH)₂ and 2 moles of KCl

Therefore, the number of moles of KOH that react with one mole of KCl = 2 moles

The mass, m, of the two moles of KOH = Number of moles of KOH × Molar mass of KOH

The molar mass of KOH = 56.1056 g/mol

∴ The mass, m, of the two moles of KOH = 2 moles × 56.1056 g/mol = 112.2112 grams

The amount in grams of KOH that react with one mole of MgCl₂ = 112.2112 grams ≈ 112 grams =  (2)(56 g).

The cheetah has been clocked at 112 km/Hr. What speed would this be in ft/sec?
zhannawk [14.2K]
All you have to do in convert two units. You need to know that there are 3600 seconds in an hour, and one kilometer is ~3,280.8399 feet. 3,280.8399 * 112 is equal to 367454.0688 feet per hour. Now divide it by 3600 to get it into seconds. That is equal to 102.07057466666667 feet per second. That's your answer.

Boiling point vs melting point
erik [133]

Answer: ✅

The main difference between boiling point and melting point is that the melting point is defined as the temperature at which solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium, whereas the boiling point is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure.
