How can I differentiate between Ionic compounds, molecular compounds, and acids given only the formula? I need to be able to fin
VikaD [51]
You can differentiate between ionic, covalent and molecular compounds by the fact that ionic compounds contain elements that include both a metal and a nonmetal. Molecular compounds contain both non metals covalently bonded to each other. While acids most often on their chemical formula start with the element of Hydrogen - H.

For Eg - sulphuric acid
H2SO4
hydrochloric acid - HCl.

A flask contains 0.340 mol of liquid bromine, br2. determine the number of bromine molecules present in the flask.
marshall27 [118]
<span>Avogadro's number represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of atoms or molecules into number of moles. We calculate as follows:

0.340 mol Br2 ( </span>6.022 x 10^23 molecules / mol ) = 2.05 x 10^23 molecules

The combination of potassium-sparing diuretics and salt substitutes can result in dangerously high blood levels of:
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

b. potassium.  

Explanation:

Potassium-sparing diuretics and salt substitutes are diuretics that eliminate salt and water but save potassium. They act by inhibiting the conducting sodium channels in the collecting tubule, such as amiloride and triamterene, or by blocking aldosterone, such as spironolactone.

Concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics together with salt substitutes may result in dangerously high blood levels of serum potassium. For this reason, it is important to consult a physician before taking these substances at the same time to avoid potential problems with potassium accumulation.

Calcium reacts with Hydrochloric acid to produce Calcium chloride and
hammer [34]

Answer:

Mass = 2.77 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of HCl = 2 g

Mass of CaCl₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2HCl + Ca    →     CaCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of HCl:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 2 g/ 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.05 mol

now we will compare the moles of HCl with CaCl₂.

                   HCl       :         CaCl₂

                     2         :          1

                   0.05     :       1/2×0.05 = 0.025 mol

Mass of CaCl₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.025 mol × 110.98 g/mol

Mass = 2.77 g
