Answer:

Na3X  (Option Dis correct)

Explanation:

Ba + X → Ba3(X)2

Barium has an oxidation number of +2 = Ba^2+

Barium will form the compound Ba3(X)2 when it reacts with X

Ba3(X)2 = 3Ba^2+ + 2X^3-

X should be an element with oxidation number -3

When sodium will bind with X the following reaction will happen:

3Na+ + X^3- = Na3X

Since sodium has only 1 valence electron, we need 3 sodium atoms to bind 1 X atom.

Option D Na3X is correct

Answer:

D. Na₃X

Explanation:

We have the neutral compound Ba₃(X)₂. <em>The total charge (zero) is equal to the sum of the charges of the ions times the number of ions in the molecule</em>.

3 × qBa + 2 × qX = 0

3 × (+2) + 2 × qX = 0

2 × qX = -6

qX = -3

If we have the cation Na⁺ and X³⁻, a neutral molecule would require 3 Na⁺ and 1 X³⁻. The resulting compound is Na₃X.

Leviafan [203]
One molecule of glucose has 6 carbon atoms. So if you have three molecules of glucose, simply multiply 3 by 6 carbon atoms. The correct answer is C. 18 Carbon atoms. 

The correct answer for the second questions is C. Air. A homogenous mixture is a mixture in which its components are uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. It has a sigle phase.

Why is it important to heat analytical reagents and store them in a dessicated atmosphere before use?
schepotkina [342]

Explanation:

In normal atmosphere, analytical reagents may absorb water molecules that may affect the results of chemical reactions. So, in order to get accurate results from these analytical regents, they must be stored in a dessicated atmosphere or heated before being used so that the water molecules must dry away.
