A chemical equation that does not indicate relative amounts of reactants and products is called

Chemistry

Zielflug [23.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is skeleton equation.

Explanation:

In chemistry, the skeletal formula of a compound is an abbreviated representation of its molecular structure. Skeleton formulas are used because they clearly show complicated structures, they are fast and simple to draw.

All atoms that are not carbon or hydrogen are represented by their chemical symbol. The relative amounts of reagents and products are not indicated.

Have a nice day!

What are the prefixes for molecular compounds?
fredd [130]

Answer:

In nomenclature of simple molecular compounds, the more electropositive atom is written first and the more electronegative element is written last with an -ide suffix.

The Greek prefixes are used to dictate the number of a given element present in a molecular compound.

Prefixes can be shortened when the ending vowel of the prefix “conflicts” with a starting vowel in the compound.

Common exceptions exist for naming molecular compounds, where trivial or common names are used instead of systematic names, such as ammonia (NH3) instead of nitrogen trihydride or water (H2O) instead of dihydrogen monooxide.

Terms

nomenclatureA set of rules used for forming the names or terms in a particular field of arts or sciences.

electronegativeTending to attract electrons within a chemical bond.

electropositiveTending to not attract electrons (repel) within a chemical bond.

Chemical Nomenclature

The primary function of chemical nomenclature is to ensure that a spoken or written chemical name leaves no ambiguity concerning to what chemical compound the name refers. Each chemical name should refer to a single substance. Today, scientists often refer to chemicals by their common names: for example, water is not often called dihydrogen oxide. However, it is important to be able to recognize and name all chemicals in a standardized way. The most widely accepted format for nomenclature has been established by IUPAC.

Molecular compounds are made when two or more elements share electrons in a covalent bond to connect the elements. Typically, non-metals tend to share electrons, make covalent bonds, and thus, form molecular compounds.

Rules for Naming Molecular Compounds:

Remove the ending of the second element, and add “ide” just like in ionic compounds.

When naming molecular compounds prefixes are used to dictate the number of a given element present in the compound. ” mono-” indicates one, “di-” indicates two, “tri-” is three, “tetra-” is four, “penta-” is five, and “hexa-” is six, “hepta-” is seven, “octo-” is eight, “nona-” is nine, and “deca” is ten.

If there is only one of the first element, you can drop the prefix. For example, CO is carbon monoxide, not monocarbon monoxide.

If there are two vowels in a row that sound the same once the prefix is added (they “conflict”), the extra vowel on the end of the prefix is removed. For example, one oxygen would be monooxide, but instead it’s monoxide. The extra o is dropped.

Generally, the more electropositive atom is written first, followed by the more electronegative atom with an appropriate suffix. For example, H2O (water) can be called dihydrogen monoxide (though it’s not usually). Organic molecules (molecules made of C and H along with other elements) do not follow this rule.

Choose the following statements that show evidence for a chemical reaction.
Leno4ka [110]

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction in which bonds between the reactants either break or form which leads to the formation of a new substance.

For example, 2Li + Cl_{2} \rightarrow 2LiCl

So, when we drop a sodium metal into water then it produces a frizzing sound which shows the metal is reacting with water.

We know that when two aqueous solutions chemically react with each other then it may lead to the formation of an insoluble substance which is known as precipitate.

This means that formation of a precipitate is also a chemical reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that following are the statements which show evidence for a chemical reaction.

  • Dropping sodium metal into water produces fizzing.
  • Mixing two aqueous solutions produces a precipitate.
