Difference between ca and ca2+

Chemistry
1 answer:
DiKsa [7]4 years ago
7 0
The main difference between the 2 is that Ca, posses the complete number of electrons including valence electrons as per any atom of Ca. As a result it is electrically neutral, as it has the same number of protons as electrons. In terms of atomic radius, it is larger than Ca^+2, because 2 electrons have been removed from a valence shell, and thus the distance from the nucleus of the ion to the outer occupied shell is smaller than for the atom of Ca.

An element A reacts with water to form a compound B which is used in white washing. On exposure to air compound B forms C. The c
frez [133]

Answer:

A- Ca

B- Ca(OH)2

C-CaCO3

D- CaO

Explanation:

Element A is calcium. Calcium reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide (compound B) as follows; Ca(s) + 2H2O(l) ----> Ca(OH)2(s) + H2(g).

When exposed to air, calcium hydroxide (compound B) forms calcium trioxocarbonate IV (CaCO3) which is compound C as follows;

Ca(OH)2(s) + CO2(g) -----> CaCO3(s) + H2O(l)

On heating compound C, the oxide, CaO (D) is formed as follows;

CaCO3(s) ------> CaO(s) + CO2(g)

This oxide reacts with water to yield B again as follows;

CaO(s) + H2O(l) ----> Ca(OH)2(s)

Is baking a cake a chemical reaction? What is the chemical formula? Please help
Rainbow [258]
Baking a cake is a chemical reaction due to heat helps baking powder produce tiny bubbles of gas, which makes the cake light and fluffy. Heat also causes protein from an egg to change and make it firm. 

Baking powder being CO2

NaHCO3 + NaHC4H4O4 ===> Na2C4H4O4 + CO2(g) + H2O

calculate the amount of H2O2:Using the balanced equation, calculate the number of moles of H2O2present in the initial solution.
arlik [135]

Answer: molar mass of H2O2 = 34 g/mol

mass of H2O2 = 68 grams

Explanation:

The decomposition reaction of Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is:

                                     2 H2O2   →    2 H2O   +   O

According to the equation the numbers of moles of  H2O2 is 2 moles.

The molar mass of H2O2 = ( 16×2) + (1x2)

                                                32 + 2 = 34 g/mol

∵ atomic mass of oxygen is 16 and hydrogen is 1.

Now, mole=\frac{mass-in-gram }{molar mass}

putting values

           2=\frac{mass}{34}

mass of H2O2 = 2 × 34 = 68 grams
