The spectator ions are K⁺ and NO₃⁻, since these ions do not involve in any reaction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is given that a bright yellow precipitate will be formed when the given substance reacts with silver nitrate. Silver nitrate reacts with anion iodide (I⁻) to form yellow precipitate.

In the flame test, if we get purple color then the cation must be Potassium (K⁺).

So if we combine the cation and anion we will get the compound as Potassium Iodide (KI).

K⁺ + I⁻ + Ag⁺ + NO₃⁻ → KNO₃ + AgI (s) ↓

Here Silver and Iodide ions combine to form a precipitate and Potassium and nitrate ions are acting as spectator ions, which do not involve in the reaction.

How many electrons would be found in the Ion who’s symbol is I-
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

54

Explanation:

Given symbol of the element:

                   I⁻

Number of electrons found in an ion with the symbol:

  This is a iodine ion:

         For an atom of iodine:

                   Electrons  = 53

                   Protons  = 53

                   Neutrons  = 74

An ion of iodine is one that has lost or gained electrons.

For this one, we have a negatively charged ion which implies that the number of electrons is 1 more than that of the protons.

  So, number of electrons  = 53 + 1  = 54

The number of electrons in this ion is 54

Copper has two naturally occurring isotopes, 63Cu (isotopic mass 62.9296 amu) and 65Cu (isotopic mass 64.9278 amu). If copper ha
Semenov [28]

Answer:

Percentage of first isotope = 69.152 %

Percentage of second isotope =  30.848 %

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})

Given that:

For first isotope:

Let % = x %

Mass = 62.9296 amu

For second isotope:

% = 100 - x  %  (Since, there are only two isotopes)

Mass = 64.9278 amu

Average mass = 63.546 amu

Thus,  

63.546=\frac {x}{100}\times {62.9296}+\frac {(100-x)}{100}\times {64.9278}

Solving,

1.9982 x = 138.18

Thus,

<u>Percentage of first isotope = x = 69.152 %</u>

<u>Percentage of second isotope = 100 - x % = 30.848 %</u>

List the communities in a successional sequence of secondary succession?
Y_Kistochka [10]
Secondary succession occurs in areas where a biological community has already existed but some or all of that community has been removed by small-scale disturbances that did not eliminate all life and nutrients from the environment.

1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p6. This ion is a(n) . What is the chemical symbol of the noble gas this ion is isoelectronic with?
leonid [27]

1) Answer is: This ion is Br⁻ (bromine anion).

This ion has 36 electrons, because it has charge -1 (atom gain one electron), its atom has 35 electrons and 35 protons (atomic number 35). Element with atomic number 35 is bromine.

Electron configuration of ion with a charge of -1:                                                    ₃₅Br⁻ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶.

2) Answer is: chemical symbol of the noble gas is Kr (krypton).

Isoelectronic atom or ion has the same number of valence electrons. Krypton has 36 electron and 36 protons (atomic number 36).

Am I the bad guy for killing my fish, let me explain?

Explanation:

The fish said a bad word that was incredibly inappropriate, so then I told him to never say that again. He responds with, "No, I CAN SAY WHATEVER I WANT." After that I told him to not yell at me and then I killed him, remember he's a fish (GoldFISH).
