Why do the names of some ionic compounds include the charge of the metal ion while others do not?

Chemistry

Fantom [35]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is because there are polyvalent metals.

Explanation:

Most transition metals can form cations with various loads. That is why block d of the periodic table is marked as "variable load". For example, iron is polyvalent, which means "many values", i.e. it can form cations with different loads. For polyvalent metals, we must specify the magnitude of the ion charge. In the case of anions most of the time it is not necessary to specify the magnitude of the charge of the anion.

Have a nice day!

The names of some ionic compounds include the charge of the metal ion while others do not because there are ionic compounds that are able to form more than one type of ion especially for metals and these compounds should be distinguished properly to avoid confusion. For instance, the metal cation of iron, we have Fe2+ and Fe3+. Ionic compounds with metal cations have a charge that is invariant from a compound to another does not include the charge of the cation. However, for ionic compounds of a metal with a charge that would vary in different compounds should include the charge of that particular metal cation.

The solubility of KClO3(s) in water increases as the
algol [13]
<span>Answer: option (1) solubility of the solution increases.
</span><span />

<span>Justification:
</span><span />

<span>The solubility of substances in a given solvent is temperature dependent.
</span><span />

<span>The most common behavior of the solubility of salts in water is that the solubiilty increases as the temperature increase.
</span><span />

<span>To predict with certainty the solubility at different temperatures you need the product solubility constants (Kps), which is a constant of equlibrium of the dissolution of a ionic compound slightly soluble in water, or a chart (usually experimental chart) showing the solubilities at different temperatures.
</span><span />

<span>KClO₃ is a highly soluble in water, so you do not work with Kps.
</span><span />

<span>You need the solubility chart or just assume that it has the normal behavior of the most common salts. You might know from ordinary experience that you can dissolve more sodium chloride (table salt) in water when the water is hot. That is the same with KClO₃.


</span><span>The solubility chart of KlO₃ is almost a straight line (slightly curved upward), with positive slope (ascending from left to right) meaning that the higher the temperature the more the amount of salt that can be dissolved.</span>

The pOH of a solution of KOH is 11.30. What is the [H*] for this solution?​
Sloan [31]

Answer: The concentration of hydrogen ions for this solution is 1.99 \times 10^{-3}.

Explanation:

Given: pOH = 11.30

The relation between pH and pOH is as follows.

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 11.30 = 14

pH = 14 - 11.30

= 2.7

Also, pH is the negative logarithm of concentration of hydrogen ions.

pH = - log [H^{+}]

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

pH = -log [H^{+}]\\2.7 = -log [H^{+}]\\conc. of H^{+} = 1.99 \times 10^{-3}

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of hydrogen ions for this solution is 1.99 \times 10^{-3}.

Explain what happens to substances during a chemical change
Free_Kalibri [48]

In a chemical change, the atoms in the reactants rearrange themselves and bond together differently to form one or more new products with different characteristics than the reactants. When a new substance is formed, the change is called a chemical change.

What allows electrical charges to move freely
Zolol [24]

Explanation:

Certain materials, called conductors, allow electric charge to move pretty freely through them. ... Other materials, like plastic and rubber, are called insulators because they don't allow electric charges to move through them.
