Answer:
MnO- Manganese Oxide
Explanation:
Empirical formula: This is the formula that shows the ratio of elements
present in a
compound.
How to determine Empirical formula
1. First arrange the symbols of the elements present in the compound
alphabetically to determine the real empirical formula. Although, there
are exceptions to this rule, E.g H2So4
2. Divide the percentage composition by the mass number.
3. Then divide through by the smallest number.
4. The resulting answer is the ratio attached to the elements present in
a compound.
Mn O
% composition 72.1 27.9
Divide by mass number 54.94 16
1.31 1.74
Divide by the smallest number 1.31 1.31
1 1.3
The resulting ratio is 1:1
Hence the Empirical formula is MnO, Manganese oxide
Answer:
See explanation.
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, when having the cationic and anionic species with the specified charges, in order to abide by the net charge rule, we need to exchange the charges in the form of subscripts and without the sign, just as shown below:
Thus, for all the given combinations, we obtain:
- Y⁻

- Y²⁻

- Y³⁻
