In a neutral ionic compound, you can determine its sub-scripts by simply flipping the ionic charges and dropping the signs: so AlS would be Al2S3

Answer:

The ratio of aluminium to sulfur is 2:3

Explanation:

The ratio of the elements of the neutral compound can be computed from the ionic charges that makes up the compound. The element that makes up the compound is aluminium and sulfur.  From the ions aluminium is the cation with a charge of 3+ . The  aluminium ion is the cations because it loses 3 electrons from the bonding between it and sulfur. The sulfur is the anion as it gains electrons from the cations.

Aluminium has a charge of 3+ and sulfur has a charge of 2- . The atom of element that makes up the neutral compound can be computed when you cross multiply the charges.

Al3+ and S2-

cross multiply the charges

Al2S3.

The ratio of aluminium to sulfur is 2:3

The decomposition of dinitrogen tetraoxide into nitrogen gas and oxygen gas is shown by which balanced chemical equation?
LekaFEV [45]
Know what decomposition is. The compound is "breaking down".

Di means 2 while, Tetra means 4.

First, we will simply follow the instructions and break down the compound as so: The decomposition of dinitrogen tetraoxide into nitrogen gas and oxygen gas

*Take into account that diatomic molecules (HNOFClBRI) will always have a subscript of 2

N
₂O₄⇒N₂+O₂

After breaking down the compound, we must now balance the equation.

To balance the equation, we must make sure that each element has the same amount of atoms.

Starting with compound at the left of the yield: N=2 and O=4
But, at the right of the yield: N=2 and O=2
We have now discovered that the oxygen gas is not balanced throughout the equation.

N₂O₄⇒N₂+2O₂

*We simply multiply the oxygen gas on the right of the equation by 2

After multiplying, on the right side of the equation, O=4. We now have a balanced equation because all elements have the same amount of atoms on each side.

So your final answer for this balanced decomposition chemical equation is: N₂O₄⇒N₂+O₂
