The correct option is 58 Fe 2+.
A neutral atom normally has the same number of proton, neutron and electrons, if the number of electrons differ from that of proton, that means that the elements has given some electrons away or it has gained some electrons from another element.
In the question given above, the atomic number of the element is 26 [because the proton number is 26], which means the element is iron. Iron has 24 electrons because it has given two away, so it will have +2. The iron has 32 neutrons instead of 26 so it is an isotope.
What are the statements ?
<span>A compound is found to be 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen and 53.5% oxygen. Its molecular mass is 60. g/mol.
</span>Q1)
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components making up a compound.
the percentages have been given, therefore we can calculate for 100 g of the compound.
C H O
Mass in 100 g 40.0 g 6.7 g 53.5 g
Molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
Number of moles 40.0/12= 3.33 6.7/1 = 6.7 53.5/16 = 3.34
Divide by the least number of moles
3.33/3.33 = 1 6.7/3.33 = 2.01 3.34/3.33 = 1.00
after rounding off
C - 1
H - 2
O - 1
Empirical formula - CH₂O
Q2)
Molecular formula is the actual number of components making up the compound.
To find the number of empirical units we have to find the mass of one empirical unit.
Mass of one empirical unit = CH₂O - 12 + (1x2) + 16 = 30 g
Mass of one mole of compound = 60 g
Number of empirical units = 60 g / 30 g = 2
Therefore molecular formula - 2(CH₂O)
Molecular formula - C₂H₄O₂
Answer:
magnesium + hydrochloric acid → hydrogen gas + magnesium chloride
explanation:
the nitrogen in HNO3 is in the +5 oxidation state and is easily reduced. The reduction would result in the oxidation of the hydrogen gas, forming the water once again.The sulfur in H2SO4 is also in its highest oxidation state, +6.
