Ionic compound consists of a positively charged ion and a negatively charged anion. For example, NaCl. Na (sodium) is a cation (another word for positively charged ion) and Cl (chloride) is a anion (another way for negatively charged ion.)
Molecular compounds consists of only negatively charged ions. For example Br2I is a compound of 2 elements that are negatively charged.
Unlike ionic compounds, molecular compounds consists of two or more negatively charged elements.
Answer:
1.2 atm
Explanation:
Given data
- Volume of the gas in the tank (V₁): 200.0 L
- Pressure of ethylene gas in the tank (P₁): ?
- Volume of the gas in the torch (V₂): 300 L
- Pressure of the gas in the torch (P₂): 0.8 atm
If we consider ethylene gas to be an ideal gas, we can find the pressure of ethylene gas in the tank using Boyle's law.

We can write the balanced equation for the synthesis reaction as
H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g)
We use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and hydrogen gas H2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2 needed:
mass of H2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl) *
(2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2)
= 4.056 g H2
We also use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and chlorine gas CL2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2:
mass of CL2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol Cl2 / 2 mol HCl) *
(70.91 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2)
= 142.4 g Cl2
Therefore, we need 4.056 grams of hydrogen gas and 142.4 grams of chlorine gas to produce 146.4 grams of hydrogen chloride gas.
Unlikely. It's unlikely for ammonium ion
to accept a proton
and act as a Bronsted-Lowry Acid.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
What's the definition of Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases?
- Bronsted-Lowry Acid: a species that can donate one or more protons
in a reaction.
- Bronsted-Lowry Base: a species that can accept one or more protons

Ammonium ions
are positive. Protons
are also positive.
Positive charges repel each other, which means that it will be difficult for
to accept any additional protons. As a result, it's unlikely that
will accept <em>any</em> proton and act like a Bronsted-Lowry Base.
