An ion is an atom that has lost or gained an electron so the relation ship you would see would be a negative or a positive one depending on if it gained or lost an electron.<span />
Answer:
The atoms become cations because they have lost electrons and the atoms and has a positive charge then atoms become a ions because they have gained electrons from cations and has a negative charge
Answer:
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
Explanation:
The decomposition reaction always make two compounds from one.
The products always have simpler chemical structure, originated from a determined compound. This can happens spontaneously or by a third party.
A notable example of decomposition is hydrolysis. As for example the case of water, which decomposes and generates oxygen and hydrogen gas
2H₂O (l) → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)
In this case, the calium carbonate decomposes into CaO and CO₂
These two, are the products of the decomposition.
Of course, the unique reactant is the Calcium Carbonate
The balanced equation is:
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
Answer : The molecular weight of this compound is 891.10 g/mol
Explanation : Given,
Mass of compound = 12.70 g
Mass of ethanol = 216.5 g
Formula used :
where,
= change in freezing point
= temperature of pure ethanol = 
= temperature of solution = 
= freezing point constant of ethanol = 
i = van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)
m = molality
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get
Therefore, the molecular weight of this compound is 891.10 g/mol
The heat that is required to raise the temperature of an object is calculated through the equation,
heat = mass x specific heat x (T2 - T1)
Specific heat is therefore calculated through the equation below,
specific heat = heat / (mass x (T2 - T1))
Substituting,
specific heat = 645 J / ((28.4 g)(15.5 - - 11.6))
The value of specific heat from above equation is 0.838 J/g°C.
