<u>Answer:</u> When oppositely charged species interact.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Ionic compound is defined as the compound which is formed by the complete transfer of electrons from one element to another element.

In these compounds, oppositely charged ions are attracted towards each other to form a compound.

<u>For Example:</u>  NaCl is formed by the attraction of Na^+\text{ and }Cl^- ions. So, same number of oppositely charges maintain electrical neutrality.

Electrical neutrality in a compound is achieved when atoms forming a compound have same number of opposite charges. Basically the charges on cation is balanced by the charges on anion.

How much heat (in kJ k J ) is evolved in converting 2.00 mol m o l of steam at 135 ∘C ∘ C to ice at -42 ∘C ∘ C ? The heat capaci
vovikov84 [41]

The total quantity of heat evolved in converting the steam to ice is determined as  -12,928.68 J.

<h3>Heat evolved in converting the steam to ice</h3>

The total heat evolved is calculated as follows;

Q(tot) = Q1(steam to boiling point) + Q2(boiling point to ice) +Q3(freezing to -42 ⁰C)

where;

  • Q is heat evolved

Q = = mcΔθ

where;

  • m is mass,  (mass of water = 18 g/mol)
  • c is specific heat capacity,
  • Δθ is change in temperature

Q(tot) = 2(18)(2.01)(100 - 135) + 2(18)(2.01)(0 - 100) + 2(18)(2.09)(-42 - 0)

Q(tot) = -12,928.68 J

Thus, the total quantity of heat evolved in converting the steam to ice is determined as  -12,928.68 J.
