Members of which group easily lose an electron to form a +1 cation?

Chemistry

The alkali metals, which occupy group 1 of the periodic table. This is because the valence shells of these elements have only 1 electron, so easily form an ionic bond with a non-metal compound by donating this. A cation is formed by this donation, since there is one fewer electron orbiting the nucleus than there is in the atomic form - conversely an anion is formed when an atom gains an extra electron to become negatively charged.

How do you balance the equation in number one?
AleksAgata [21]
____NaNO3 + ___PbO --> ___Pb(NO3)2 + ___Na[2]O

To balace the eqaution, you need to have the same number of atoms for each element on both the reactant (left) and product (right) side. 

To start off, you wanna know the number of atoms in each element on both sides, so take it apart:

[reactants]        [product]
Na- 1               Na- 2

N- 1               N- 2(it's 2 because the the subscript [2] is outside of the parenthesis)

O- 4              O- 7 (same reason as above) 

Pb- 1            Pb- 1 

Na is not balanced out, so add a coefficient to make it the same on both sides.In this case, multiply by 2: 

2NaNO3

Now Na is balanced, but the N and O are also effected by this, so they also have to be multiplied by 2 and they become: 

Na- 2             Na- 2 

N- 2              N- 2 (it balanced out) 

O- 7 (coefficient times subscript, plus lone O)  O- 7 (balanced out) 

Pb was already balanced so no need to mess with it, just put a 1 where needed (it doesn't change anything). 

Now to put it back together, it will look like this: 

2NaNO3 + 1PbO --> 1Pb(NO3)2 + 1Na[2]O

How can scientists use stoichiometry to ensure that commercial products contain the components that manufacturers claim they do?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

I know you have been waiting awhile for this question to be answered :)

Stoichiometry is used in industry quite often to determine the amount of materials required to produce the desired amount of products in a given useful equation. Each one of these products requires stoichiometry. There would be no products from these industries without chemical stoichiometry.

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps :D

Sorry you had to wait so long :(
