<span>Answer:
Some metals have the ability to form differently charged ions. For example, iron can form
2
+
or
3
+
ions. If you simply gave the name iron chloride, you would not know which charge the iron ion possessed.
A Roman numeral is to indicate the charge of the iron.
Iron (
II
) means the iron has a
2
+
charge
Iron (
III
) means that the iron has a
3
+
charge
So, iron (
II
) oxide would have a chemical formula of
FeO
.
(The oxide ion has a
2
â’
charge to balance the
2
+
of the iron to form a neutral compound.)
Iron (
III
) oxide would have a chemical formula of
Fe
2
O
3
(Here you need to find the common multiple of 6, so two iron ions with a
3
+
charge will balance the charge of three oxide ions with a
2
+
charge.)</span>

Answer:
Explanation:
The speed of sound in the air mainly depends on temperature. At high altitudes, where it is much colder, sound travels slower. The higher the temperature, the faster the air molecules are moving to begin with, and the quicker they bump into each other as a sound wave passes through.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons.
Remember that all the atoms of an element have the same number of protons. So the only difference between isotopes of an element is the number of neutrons.
86 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 86. Also, remember that the mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons.
87 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 87.
So, 86 Sr and 87 Sr differ 1 neutron.
Answer: 1 neutron
