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.

If 72.5 grams of calcium metal (Ca) react with 65.0 grams of oxygen gas (O2) in a synthesis reaction, how many grams of the exce
Natali5045456 [20]
2Ca + O2 = 2CaO
First, determine which is the excess reactant
72.5 g Ca (1 mol) =1.8089725036
(40.078 g)

65 g O2 (1 mol) =2.0313769611
(15.999g × 2)
Since the ratio of to O2 is 2:1 in the balanced reaction, divide Ca's molar mass by 2 to get 0.9044862518. this isn't necessary because Ca is already obviously the limiting reactant. therefore, O2 is the excess reactant.

Now do the stoichiometry
72.5 g Ca (1 mol Ca) (1 mol O2)
(40.078 g Ca)(2 mol Ca)(31.998g O2)

=0.0282669621 g of O2 left over

Be sure to answer all parts. Hydrogen iodide decomposes according to the reaction 2 HI(g) ⇌ H2(g) + I2(g) A sealed 1.50−L contai
Zarrin [17]

Answer : The concentration of HI and I_2 at equilibrium is, 0.0158 M and 0.00302 M respectively.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the concentration of H_2, I_2\text{ and }HI

\text{Concentration of }H_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.00623mol}{1.50L}=0.00415M

\text{Concentration of }I_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }I_2}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.00414mol}{1.50L}=0.00276M

\text{Concentration of }HI=\frac{\text{Moles of }HI}{\text{Volume of solution}}=\frac{0.0244mol}{1.50L}=0.0163M

Now we have to calculate the value of equilibrium constant (K).

The given chemical reaction is:

                            2HI(g)\rightleftharpoons H_2(g)+I_2(g)

Initial conc.      0.0163     0.00415      0.00276

At eqm.        (0.0163-2x) (0.00415+x)  (0.00276+x)

As we are given:

Concentration of H_2 at equilibrium = 0.00467 M

That means,

(0.00415+x) = 0.00467

x = 0.00026 M

Concentration of HI at equilibrium = (0.0163-2x) = (0.0163-2(0.00026)) = 0.0158 M

Concentration of I_2 at equilibrium = (0.00276+x) = (0.00276+0.00026) = 0.00302 M
