Chemistry

galina1969 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a. AlCl is incorrect because Al has a +3 charge while Cl only has a -1 charge. The correct formula would be AlCl₃. This balances the charges.

b. Na₃SO₄ is incorrect because Na has a charge of +1 and there are three of them so its +3 and SO₄ has a charge of -2. The correct formula would be Na₂SO₄. This balances the charges.

c. BaOH₂ is incorrect because the polyatomic ion OH would not be written that way. It would be written like this Ba(OH)₂. Writing it like BaOH₂ gives the impression that instead of having 2 OH it has 2 H and 1 O.

d. Fe₂O is incorrect because Fe either has a +2 charge or +3 charge while O has a -2 charge. Possible correct answers could be FeO (iron (II) oxide) or Fe₂O₃ (iron (III) oxide).

Engine size is measured by how much air the cylinders displace. A 1996 Pontiac V8 has an engine size of 316.6 cubic inches. What
inna [77]

The size of this engine in cubic meters is 0.0052 m^{3}.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As it is stated that engine size can be measured depending upon the amount of air the cylinders displace, it is also stated that the engine of model Pontiac V8 has a size of 316.6 cubic inches. The problem is to convert the size of engine in cubic meters. We know that 1 inch = 0.0254 m.

Then 1 inch^{3}=(0.0254)^{3} m^{3}

As here the size of engine is 316.6 cubic inches, then in metres it will be

    316.6 \text { inches }^{3}=316.6 \times(0.0254)^{3} \mathrm{m}^{3}=0.0052 \mathrm{m}^{3}

Thus, the size of the engine in cubic meters will be 0.0052 m^{3}.

Differentiate between <br>Halogens and insert gases​
jasenka [17]

Answer:

An inert gas is one that does not undergo chemical reactions

Noble gases refers to the right most group of the periodic table composed of helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. As you might have seen as an example in class, some noble gases can form chemical compounds, such as XeF4.

or to say:

Halogens and noble gases are two different groups of elements that can be seen on the periodic table. Halogens are found in group 17 and include fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine. Noble gases make up group 18, and include helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon.

A student attempts to separate 4.656 g of a sand/salt mixture just like you did in this lab. After carrying out the experiment,
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Total mixture = 4.656 g

Sand recovered = 2.775 g

percent composition of sand in the mixture

= (2.775 g / 4.656 g ) x 100

= 59.6 % .

b )

Total of sand and salt recovered = 2.775 g + .852 g = 3.627 g .

Total mixture = 4.656 g

percent recovery = (3.627 / 4.656 ) x 100

= 77.9 % .
