Atom is a neutral element found in nature without any charge. In other words, it has same number of Protons and electrons, whereas ion is a charged thing, either positive or negative. We can find their charge by:

Charge = Number of Protons - Number of Electrons

Hope this helps!

Atoms are neutral, they have a similar number of protons (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge)

Ions have either a positive or negative charge by adding or taking away electrons to change the charge.

Use the molar solubility 3.27×10−11m in pure water to calculate ksp for nis.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Ksp = 1.07x10⁻²¹

Explanation:

Molar solubility is defined as moles of solute can be dissolved in 1L.

Ksp for NiS is defined as:

NiS(s) ⇄ Ni²⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)

Ksp = [Ni²⁺] [S²⁻]

As molar solubility is 3.27x10⁻¹¹M, concentration of [Ni²⁺] and [S²⁻] is 3.27x10⁻¹¹M for both.

Replacing:

Ksp = [3.27x10⁻¹¹M] [3.27x10⁻¹¹M]

<em>Ksp = 1.07x10⁻²¹</em>

Find the formula for the compound that contains 72.40% iron and 27.60% oxygen.
Vikki [24]
Oxygen = 16
Iron = 55.8
16 x 27.6% = 4.4 /4 = 1.1
55.8 x 72.4% = 40.4 /4 = 10.1
1 oxygen and 10 iron, so Fe10 O
