Answer:

It is a salt of two polyatomic ammonium ions and one polyatomic sulfate ion

Explanation:

Ammonium Sulfate is an ionic compound formed by two polyatomic ions, Ammonium NH+4 and Sulfate SO−4 . ... Therefore, it will take two +1 ammonium ions to balance the one -2 sulfate ion. This will make the formula for Ammonium Sulfate (NH4)2SO4

Answer:

A) It is a salt of two polyatomic ammonium ions and one polyatomic sulphate ion.

Explanation:

A polyatomic ion is an ion composed of two or more atoms. Polyatomic ions are covalently bonded groups of atoms with a positive or negative charge caused by the formation of an ionic bond with another ion. They behave as a single unit and are also known as molecular ion.

Ammonium sulphate [(NH4)2SO4] is an ionic compound formed by two polyatomic ions which are NH4^+ and SO4 ^2-

•In order for these two polyatomic ions to bond, the charges must be equal, opposite and give a net charge of zero.

•Since the sulfate ion has the greater charge, we will need two atoms of NH4^+ that will sum up to give a charge 2+ which will balance the 2- coming from the sulfate polyatomic ion.

We will be having something like this:

NH4^+ + NH4^+ ----> 2NH4^ +

Now we have equal number of charges, two positive and two negative charges coming from two ammonium polyatomic ions and one sulfate polyatomic ion.

NH4^+ NH4^+ SO4^2-

This will make the formula for ammonium sulfate to be (NH4)2SO4

1. Calculate the energy of a photon with a frequency of 3x1015 Hz.<br> ?????
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

1.99 x 10⁻¹⁸J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Frequency of the wave  = 3 x 10¹⁵Hz

Unknown:

Energy of the photon  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below;

     E  = hf

Where E is the energy, h is the Planck's constant and f is the frequency

Now insert the parameters and solve for E;

     E  = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10¹⁵ = 19.9 x 10⁻¹⁹J or 1.99 x 10⁻¹⁸J

An aqueous solution of licl is 34.0 % licl. what mass of water is present in 250.0 g of the solution? (density of water is 1.00
adell [148]
<span>If the aqueous solution is 34% Licl then it is 100 - 34% water = 66% From the calculation we've found out that it is 66% water. Then we need to find the weight from a 250 g solution. 66/100 * 250 = 165g Hence it is 165g</span>

How many moles of Fe2O3 will be produced from a 18.0 grams of Fe
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.113 moles of Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

Data

moles of Fe₂O₃ = ?

mass of Fe₂O₃ = 18 grams

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of Fe₂O₃

Fe₂O₃ = (56 x 2) + (16 x 3)

          = 112 + 48

          = 160 g

2.- Use proportions to solve this problem. The molar mass is equivalent to 1 mol.

                   160 g of Fe₂O₃ --------------- 1 mol

                     18 g of Fe₂O₃ ---------------- x

                            x = (18 x 1)/160

                           x = 0.113 moles of Fe₂O₃
