Naming ionic compounds what are the structural units that make up ionic compounds and how are they named answers
Marizza181 [45]
Ionic compounds are the combination of two elements, one of which is a metal, while the other is a nonmetal. The intermolecular forces binding them is called an ionic bond. To name an ionic compound, take the name of the metal element first, followed by the nonmetal, but adding the suffix -ide. For example, NaCl is named as sodium chloride.

The equation for the combustion of CH4 (the main component of natural gas) is
Lera25 [3.4K]

Heat produced =  -13588.956 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The reaction of combustion of Methane

CH4(g)+2O2(g)→CO2(g)+2H2O(g) ΔH∘rxn=−802.3kJ

271 g of CH4

Required

Heat produced

Solution

mol of 271 g CH₄ (MW=16 g/mol0

mol = mass : MW

mol = 271 : 16

mol = 16.9375

So Heat produced :

= mol x ΔH°rxn

= 16.9375 mol x −802.3kJ/mol = -13588.956 kJ

How many gram-atoms are in 120-gram sample of calcium metal? How many atoms is this?
Elden [556K]
(sample g/1) X (1 mole/40.078(MW of Ca)) = moles of sample (moles of sample)(6.022 x 10^23( no of atoms)/ 1 mole) = # of atoms in a 120 g sample of calcium Avogadro's number=6.022x 10^23 atoms in 1 mole
