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.

The pH of a solution is measured as 4.5. What is the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution?
Bond [772]

Answer:

[H⁺] =  3.16 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L

Explanation:

Given data:

pH of solution = 4.5

Hydrogen ion concentration = ?

Solution;

pH = -log [H⁺]

we will rearrange this formula:

[H⁺] =  10∧-pH

[H⁺] = 10⁻⁴°⁵

[H⁺] =  3.16 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L
