What type of compound does the formula, Fe2O3, represent ?

Chemistry

It is:
Iron (III) Oxide

As a transition metal iron can have two oxidation states <span>F<span>e+</span>2</span> ferrous or <span>F<span>e+</span>3</span>ferric.

Oxygen has an oxidation state of <span>O<span>−2</span></span>.

In the case of <span>F<span>e2</span><span>O3</span></span> the oxidation states are balanced when 2 <span>F<span>e<span>+3</span></span></span> ions pair with 3 <span>O<span>−2</span></span>.

<span>F<span>e2</span><span>O3</span></span> is Iron (III) oxide where the roman numeral informs us that the charge on the iron is +3, the common name would be ferric oxide.

If the iron was <span>F<span>e<span>+2</span></span></span> and the oxygen <span>O<span>−2</span></span>, the formula would be FeO Iron (II) oxide or ferrous oxide.

What is the ph of a solution of 1.0 × 10-9 m naoh (include 1 digit after the decimal in your answer)?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

pH=5

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the dissociation of the sodium hydroxide into sodium and hydroxyl ions we have:

NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-

Which is a 100% dissociation as sodium hydroxide is a strong base, therefore, the concentration of the hydroxyl ions are 1.0x10⁻⁹. For that reason, the pOH could be computed as:

pOH=-log([OH^-})=-log(1.0x10^{-9})=9

Finally, from the definition of pH, we have:

pH+pOH=14\\pH=14-pOH=14-9\\pH=5

Best regards.
