M(S)=1 g
m(O)=1.5 g
M(S)=32 g/mol
M(O)=16 g/mol

n(S)=m(S)/M(S)
n(O)=m(O)/M(O)

n(S)=1/32=0.03125 mol
n(O)=1.5/16=0.09375 mol

S : O = 0.03125 : 0.09375 = 1 : 3

SO₃ - is the empirical formula

The d-metals iron, copper, and manganese form cations with different oxidation states. For this reason, they are found in many o
choli [55]

Answer:

They have electrons in their 3d- and 4s-orbital for bond formation.

Explanation:

d- metals or transition metal are metal which form ion with partially filled d-orbital. Examples are iron and manganese.

The metals have 2 electrons in their 4s orbital. If only this is used for bonding, they will form compounds where they have oxidation State of +2 as seen in MnO.

If two 4s and one of 3d electrons are used, oxidation state of +3 is formed as seen in FeCl3.

If two 2s electron I used with two 3d electrons, compound with oxidation state of +4 is formed as seen in MnO2

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a. 58.5 g/mol

b. 0.1 mol

Explanation:

a.

The molar mass of Na is 23.0 g/mol. The molar mass of Cl is 35.5 g/mol. The molar mass of NaCl is:

M(Na) + M(Cl) = 23.0 g/mol + 35.5 g/mol = 58.5 g/mol

b. A healthy adult should eat no more than 6 g of salt in one day. The moles corresponding to 6 g of NaCl are:

6 g × (1 mol/58.5 g) = 0.1 mol
