Determine the number of ions produced in the dissociation of the compound listed. AlF3

1 answer:

6 0

Answer is: the number of ions produced in the dissociation of aluminium fluoride is 4.

Chemical dissociation of aluminium fluoride in water:
AlF₃(aq) → Al³⁺(aq) + 3F⁻(aq).
There are four ions, one aluminium cation and three fluoride anions.
Aluminium has oxidation +3, because it lost three electrons, to have electron configuration as noble gas neon and fluorine has oxidation -1, because it gain one electron to have electron configuration as noble gas neon.

What is the relationship between elements ,atoms ,and compounds

Svetach [21]

Elements are separate particles that contain the properties of only one type of element (pure substance) and an atom represents that element as the smallest non divisible particle that retains the properties of that element. Compounds can be formed by conjoining different atoms together in different ratios and shapes, so a combination of elements.

Explanation:

The changes in temperature caused by a reaction, combined with the values of the specific heat and the mass of the reacting system, makes it possible to determine the heat of reaction.

Heat energy can be measured by observing how the temperature of a known mass of water (or other substance) changes when heat is added or removed. This is basically how most heats of reaction are determined. The reaction is carried out in some insulated container, where the heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction causes the temperature of the contents to change. This temperature change is measured and the amount of heat that caused the change is calculated by multiplying the temperature change by the heat capacity of the system.

The apparatus used to measure the temperature change for a reacting system is called a calorimeter (that is, a calorie meter). The science of using such a device and the data obtained with it is called calorimetry. The design of a calorimeter is not standard and different calorimeters are used for the amount of precision required. One very simple design used in many general chemistry labs is the styrofoam "coffee cup" calorimeter, which usually consists of two nested styrofoam cups.

When a reaction occurs at constant pressure inside a Styrofoam coffee-cup calorimeter, the enthalpy change involves heat, and little heat is lost to the lab (or gained from it). If the reaction evolves heat, for example, very nearly all of it stays inside the calorimeter, the amount of heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction is calculated.
