Best Answer: Ionic binary compounds -- contain a metal cation and an anion made of a nonmetal or a polyatomic anion. Consider calcium phosphate:
Ca = 2+ (Group IIA)
PO4 = 3- (phosphate)
The lowest common multiple of 2+ and 3- is 6. You must have 3 Ca2+ to make +6; you must have 2 PO43- to make -6. The sum of the positive and negative charges must be equal in a compound because they are electrically neutral.
Ca3(PO4)2 -- calcium phosphate

Binary molecular compounds -- contain two or more nonmetals bonded covalently. There are no ions present because the atoms share electrons. Prefixes are used to indicate the number of atoms of each kind present. Examples are:
SO2 -- sulfur dioxide
N2O4 -- dinitrogen tetraoxide
PCl3 -- phosphorous trichloride
CO -- carbon monoxide

The general formula for an acid is HX, where X is an anion. Binary acids contain H and a nonmetal and are named with the prefix "hydro" and the suffix "ic". Examples are:
HCl -- hydrochloric acid
H2S -- hydrosulfuric acid
HF -- hydrofluoric acid
Ternary acids contain H and a polyatomic anion. Examples are:
H2SO4 -- sulfuric acid
HNO3 -- nitric acid
HNO2 -- nitrous acid
HClO3 -- chloric acid
HClO2 -- chlorous acid
HClO -- hypochlorous acid
The names of the anions are changed as follows:
-ate anions form -ic acids
-ite anions form -ous acids
per...ate anions form per...ic acids
hypo...ite anions form hypo...ous acids.

How could maglev trains help improve people's lives? Write three paragraphs. First summarize the author's criticism of conventio
skelet666 [1.2K]
Maglev trains were created to connect Shanghai Pudong International Airport to Central Pudong. Transrapid, another name for the Maglev train is said to be the fastest train. It can run up to 270/mph in just eight minutes.
Compared to other transportation systems, Transrapid is faster and more cost effective. It has less maintaining coverage and zero sounds compared to the ordinary ones. 
This kind of train is one of the most effective means of transportation. It lessens traffic and pollution caused by car emission. It also saves more time for people who are always on the go.

Maleic acid is an organic compound composed of 41.39% , 3.47% , and the rest oxygen. If 0.378 mole of maleic acid has a mass of
storchak [24]

Answer:

Empirical CHO

molecular C4H4O4

Explanation:

From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.

This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%

Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.

C = 41.39/12 = 3.45

O = 55.14/16 = 3.45

H = 3.47/1 = 3.47

Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.

Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO

Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.

To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.

Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g

Then 1 mole = xg

x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116

[CHO]n = 116

(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116

29n = 116

n = 116/29 = 4

The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4
