Write an equation that shows the formation of a barium ion from a neutral barium atom.

Chemistry

Colt1911 [192]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Ba -> Ba2+ + 2e-

Explanation:

A neutral atom becomes an iron when that atom loses electrons. The number of electroms lost by that atom determines the ionic charge or charge of it's ion. In this case, a neutral Barium atom (Ba) will become a barium ion, which has a charge of +2, when it loses 2 electrons to a more electronegative atom in a reaction.

The equation is:

Ba -> Ba2+ + 2e-

2e- is the two electrons lost

Which atom in each pair has the larger atomic radius?
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

1. Potassium, K.

2. Calcium, Ca.

3. Gallium, Ga.

4. Carbon, C.

5. Bromine, Br.

6. Barium, Ba.

7. Silicon, Si.

8. Gold, Au.

Explanation:

Atomic radius can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

Additionally, the unit of measurement of the atomic radius of chemical elements is picometers (1 pm = 10 - 12 m).

1. Li or K: the atomic radius of lithium is 167 pm while that of potassium is 243 pm.

2. Ca or Ni: the atomic radius of calcium is 194 pm while that of nickel is 149 pm.

3. Ga or B: the atomic radius of gallium is 136 pm while that of boron is 87 pm.

4. O or C: the atomic radius of oxygen is 48 pm while that of carbon is 67 pm.

5. Cl or Br: the atomic radius of chlorine is 79 pm while that of bromine is 94 pm.

6. Be or Ba: the atomic radius of berryllium is 112 pm while that of barium is 253 pm.

7. Si or S: the atomic radius of silicon is 111 pm while that of sulphur is 88 pm.

8. Fe or Au: the atomic radius of iron is 156 pm while that of gold is 174 pm.

What do you think happens to the bonds between atoms when substances melt?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

As a substance melts, and goes from a solid to a liquid state, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases, and the molecules move faster, and they separate further and further away from each other.  The intermolecluar forces holding the molecules together become weaker.  This is why a liquid can take fill the shape of its container, whereas a solid has a fixed shape.

brilliants [131]

Answer:

2.29x10⁻¹² is Ksp of the salt

Explanation:

The Ksp of the metal hydroxide is:

M(OH)₂(s) ⇄ M²⁺ + 2OH⁻

Ksp = [M²⁺] [OH⁻]²

As you can see in the reaction, 2 moles of OH⁻ are produced per mole of M²⁺. It is possible to find [OH⁻] with pH, thus:

pOH = 14- pH

pOH = 14 - 10.22

pOH = 3.78

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

<em>1.66x10⁻⁴ = [OH⁻]</em>

And [M²⁺] is the half of [OH⁻], <em>[M²⁺] = 8.30x10⁻⁵</em>

<em />

Replacing in Ksp formula:

Ksp = [8.30x10⁻⁵] [1.66x10⁻⁴]²

Ksp = 2.29x10⁻¹² is Ksp of the salt

Calculate the cost of 1.00 g of gold if the price gold is 655.00 per oz
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

22.96 $ per 1 g of gold

Explanation:

We know that 1 g is equal to 0.035 oz.

Now we formulate the following reasoning:

if         1 oz of gold have a value of 655 $

then    0.035 oz of gold have a value of X $

X = (0.035 × 655) / 1 = 22.96 $
