Answer: The formula for a compound made from X^{3+} and Y^{3-} is XY.

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here cation is having an oxidation state of +3 written as X^{3+} and anion is having an oxidation state of -3 written as Y^{3-}. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral XY.

Thus formula for a compound made from X^{3+} and Y^{3-} is XY.

Well, a compound has a total charge of 0. So, it's electrically neutral. Since the X is 3+ and the Y is 3- they add to 0. Meaning no subscripts are necessary. Why don't you try a different combo?

Like: 

A^3 and B^1-, to get a 3- charge you need 3xB^1- so the formula is AB3

Does this help?

How does scientific method help scientists
Irina18 [472]

Scientists use the scientific method all the time to help them understand things about certain topics. The scientific method is a list of steps that are used before, during, and after the experiment. The scientific method can help prove hypothesis about things and can tell you the outcome of the experiment.

How many electrons in an atom could have these sets of quantum numbers n=7 l=3 ml=-1?
zysi [14]

Solution:

Since we have ml=-1

it shows that it has two 2e- i;e it fond in 2nd subshell in f orbital. And each subshell can hold 2 e-.

Thus the required answer is 2 electrons hold by an atom.

If you have a pH of 3.35, what is the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution?
melamori03 [73]

Answer: 4.46 x 10^-4M

Explanation:

The pH of a solution is the concentration of hydrogen ion concentration in the solution. Mathematically, it is expressed as pH = -log(H+), where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ion

On the pH scale, readings are from 1 to 14.

- pH values less than 7 are regarded as acidic. So, the solution with pH 3.35 is said to be acidic, and will produce hydrogen ions.

3.35 = -log(H+)

(H+) = Antilog (-3.35)

(H+) = 0.000446M

Place (H+) in standard form

(H+) = 4.46 x 10^-4M

Thus, the concentration of hydrogen ion in the solution with pH 3.35 is 4.46 x 10^-4M
