Electron transfer is the term for this process. The resulting anion and cation are attracted by Coulombic forces and an ionic co

mpound is formed. Ionic compounds are neutral: the number of electrons lost in forming the cation(s) must equal the number gained in forming the anion(s). For example, Aluminum (Al, Z = 13, Group 3A or 13) will lose 3 electrons to become Al3+ which is isoelectronic with Neon (Ne), its closest noble gas. To form an ionic compound those 3 electrons must be picked up by a nonmetal. Two possibilities are:
Nitrogen (N, Z = 7, Group 5A or 15) gains all 3 electrons to become isoelectronic with Neon (Z = 10). The compound formed is AlN

3 Chlorine atoms (Cl, Z = 17, Group 7A or 17) each gain 1 electron to become isoelectronic with Argon (Ar, Z = 18). The symbol for the compound formed is AlCl3. The subscript after Cl indicates that 3 Cl- anions are required.

<h2>The compound formed is NaCl and CaCl_{2}</h2>

Explanation:

     PART 1:

  • Atomic number of sodium is 11.
  • Sodium(Na, Z = 11, Group 1A) will lose 1 electron to become Na^{1+} which is isoelectronic to Neon (Ne ,Z = 10).
  • The symbol for the sodium ion is Na^{+}.
  • Chlorine atom (Cl, Z = 17, Group 7A or 17) gains 1 elecron to be  isoelectronic to neon.
  • The symbol for the compound formed is NaCl.
  • PART 2:
  • Atomic number of calcium is 20
  • Calcium(Ca, Z = 20 ,Group 2A) will lose two electrons to become Ca^{2+}which is isoelectronic to argon.
  • The symbol for the ion is Ca^{2+}.
  • Two chlorine atoms (Cl, Z = 17, Group 7A or 17) each gains one electron to be isoelectronic to argon(Z = 18)
  • The symbol for the compound formed is CaCl_{2}.

How many grams of KO2 are needed to form 8.0 g of O2?
dem82 [27]
Using the atomic weights, K = 39, O=16 so KO2= 39+32=71. So K=39/71= 0.549 of KO2 and O2=32=0.45KO2 and O2=8g and 0.45KO2=8g so KO2=8/0.45=17.77g. So to check, K=0.549 x 17.77g=9.76 and so K+O2= 9.76+8g=17.76.

A sample of gas has a volume of 75.0 mL at 30.0 psi. Determine the pressure of the gas if its volume is changed to 15 mL and its
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

5.995 psi

Explanation:

30 psi = 2.04 atm

75 mL = 0.075 L

15 mL = 0.015 L

0.075 L/ 2.04 atm = 0.015 L/x

0.075x = 0.0306

x = 0.408

0.408 atm = 5.995 psi

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Volume = 75 inch³

Explanation:

Given data:

Area = 12.5 inch

Height = 6 inch

Volume =?

Solution:

Volume = height × length × width

Volume =  Area × height

Now we will put the values in formula;

Volume = 12.5 inch² ×  6 inch

Volume = 75 inch³
