When electrons are removed from the outermost shell of calcium atom, its atom becomes positively charged, with a charge of plus one.
When an electron is added to an atom, the atom becomes negatively charged, with a charge of minus one.
When these atoms become positively or negatively charged, they are known as ions. Positively charged ions are called cations and negatively charged ions are called anions.
Calcium is identified as one of the cations because it is positively charged when its electrons are removed from its outermost shell.
Answer:
Percentage composition = 14.583%
Explanation:
In chemistry, the emprical formular of a compound is the simplest formular a compound can have. It shows the simplest ratio in which the elements are combined in the compound.
Percentage composition by mass of Nitrogen
Nitrogen = 14g/mol
In one mole of the compound;
Mass of Nitrogen = 1 mol * 14g/mol = 14g
Mass of compound = 1 mol * 96.0 g/mol = 96
Percentage composition of Nitrogen = (Mass of Nitrogen / Mass of compound) * 100
percentage composition = 14/96 * 100
Percentage composition = 0.14583 * 100
Percentage composition = 14.583%
Answer:
183 cg = 0.00183 kg
0.25 kg = 250 g
Explanation:
Use conversion factors. 1kg is equal to 1 x 10^5 cg (100000) and 1 kg is equal to 1 x 10^3 grams (1000 grams).
Answer:
26 grams of D will be produced.
Explanation:
The reaction is given by:
A + B -----> C + D
Mass of A reacted = 21 g
Mass of B reacted = 22 g
Mass of C formed = 17 g
Mass of D formed = m =?
According to law of conservation of mass, the total mass of the reactants used is equal to the total mass of the product formed.
Then:
mass of A reacted + mass of B reacted = mass of C formed + mass of D formed
21 + 22 = 17 + m
m = 26 g
