Answer:
the difference in electronegativity is so large (2.04) that the bonding electrons spend almost all their time on the nitrogen atom.
Explanation:
Because calcium loses 2 electrons to become Ca2+, and nitrogen gains 3 electrons to become N3−, you need two calcium atoms and three nitrogen atoms in order to form a neutral compound.
Answer:
It is A).
Explanation:
Silver (Ag) goes from the pure metal to Ag+ losing 1 electron so it is oxidised.
The hydrogen ion gains electrons and is reduced.
The chemical formula : 3HgBr₂(Mercury(II) bromide)
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
The chemical formulas of Mercury and Bromine
Required
The appropriate chemical formula
Solution
A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.
The number of molecules is determined by the coefficient in front of the compound
the number of atoms is determined by the subscript after the atom and the coefficient
Three molecules⇒ coefficient = 3
one atom of Mercury ⇒Hg
two atoms of Bromine ⇒ Br₂
The chemical formula : 3HgBr₂
