What is a polyatomic ion? Consulting p.117 in text, list the formulas and names of at least 10 polyatomic ions. When writing the

overall formula of an ionic compound involving polyatomic ions, why are parentheses used around the formula of a polyatomic ion when more than one such ion is present? Give an example.

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Polyatomic ions are ions composed for more than 1 atom. There are polyanions and polycations.

Polyanions have a negative charge and polycations have a positive charge.

Examples

                      Polyanions                             Polycations

  acetate           CH₃COO⁻        ammonium      NH₄⁺¹                                    

  bromate          BrO₃⁻

  chlorate           ClO₃⁻

  hydroxide        OH⁻

  nitrate              NO₃⁻

  nitrite               NO₂⁻

  sulfate             SO₄⁻²

  phosphate      PO₄⁻³

  permanganate  MnO₄⁻

We write parentheses before or after a polyatomic ion to emphasize that the oxidation number of the atom which interacts with it affects all the atoms that form part of the polyatomic ion.

Does the excess reactant get used up completely in a reaction??
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, reactants that are not used up when the reaction is finished are called excess reagents. The reagent that is completely used up or reacted is called the limiting reagent, because its quantity limits the amount of products formed.

How do scientists classify intrusive igneous features? according to shape, texture, and their distance from the nearest volcanic
Nataliya [291]

according to shape, size, and their relationship to surrounding layers of rock

Explanation:

Scientists classify intrusive features according to their shape, size and relationship to surrounding layers of rocks.

Intrusive igneous features are the sills, di/kes, batholith, laccoiith, lopolith e.t.c

  • When magma cools and solidifies within the earth crust, they form intrusive igneous rocks.
  • Intrusive igneous rocks differs from one another in their shape, size and relationship to surrounding rocks.
  • For example, batholith is a large intrusive body that extends for several kilometers in the earth surface.
  • Sills and di/kes are smaller bodies. Sills forms parallel to orientation of rocks in an area. Di/kes are known to cut across the orientation.
