Ionic compounds are formed between oppositely charged ions.

A binary ionic compound is composed of ions of two different elements - one of which is a positive ion(metal), and the other is negative ion (nonmetal).

To write the empirical formula of binary ionic compound we must remember that one ion should be positive and other ion should be negative, then only the correct formula should be written. To write the empirical formula the charges of opposite ions should be criss-crossed.

First empirical formula of binary ionic compound is written betweenZn^{2+} (Positive ion)and F^{-} (Negative ion)

First Formula would be ZnF_{2}

Second empirical formula is between Zn^{2+}(Positive ion) and O^{2-}(Negative ion)

Second Formula would be Zn_{2}O_{2}

Note : When the subscript are same they get cancel out, so Zn_{2}O_{2} would be written as ZnO

Third empirical formula is between Ni^{4+}(Positive ion) and F^{-}(Negative ion)

Third Formula would be :NiF_{4}

Forth empirical formula is between Ni^{4+}(Positive ion)and O^{2-}(negative ion)

Forth Formula would be : Ni_{2}O_{4} or NiO_{2}

Note- The subscript will be simplified and the formula will be written as NiO_{2}.

The empirical formula of four binary ionic compounds are : ZnF_{2}, ZnO, NiF_{4},NiO_{2}

The empirical formula of at least four binary ionic compounds :

1. ZnF₂

2. Ni₂O₄ ---.>NiO₂

3. ZnO

4. NiF₄

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Ions are atoms that have a charge

Ions are formed because events are capturing or releasing electrons.

Ions can be differentiated based on the number of constituent elements they become

  • 1. monatomic ion, if it comes from one element, such as K⁺, Mg²⁺, Cl⁻
  • 2. polyatomic ion, if it comes from two or more elements such as PO₄³⁻, SO₄²⁻, ClO₃⁻

Based on the charge, ions can be divided into:

  • 1. positive ion (cation)

happens if the atom releases electrons, for example

Al³⁺, ---> Al⇒ Al³⁺ + 3e⁻

Pb²⁺, ----> Pb⇒ Pb²⁺ + 2e-

  • 2. negative ion (anion)

happens if the atom captures electrons, like

S²⁻, S + 2e⁻⇒ S²⁻

F⁻, F + e⁻⇒ F⁻

For ionic compounds consisting of cations (ions +) and anions (ions -)

The naming is preceded by the cation then the anion with the -ide suffix added

Generally for this ion compound consists of metal elements as cations and non-metals as anions

Binary ionic compounds are formed from 2 different atomic elements, namely metal and non-metal

Metals as cations are positively charged ions.

Nonmetals as anions are negatively charged ions.

Cation and anion charge numbers are placed crosswise.

From some of these ions

Possible compounds from the incorporation of these ions are ions

1. ZnF₂

2. Ni₂O₄ ---.>NiO₂

3. ZnO

4. NiF₄

There are 31.1 grams (g) in 1 troy ounce (ozt). How many ozt of gold are extracted from 1 short ton of average Nevada ore
devlian [24]

This problem is providing us with the mass equivalent to one troy ounce. Thus, the troy ounces of gold in one short ton of average Nevada ore is required and found to be the 0.103 otz according to the following dimensional analysis.

<h3>Dimensional analysis</h3>

In chemistry, a raft of problems do not always provide an equation in order to be solved yet dimensional analysis can be applied, so as to obtain the desired amount in the required units.

Thus, since this problem asks for try ounces in an average Nevada ore,  which has 3.2 grams of gold per short ton of ore, one can solve the following setup in order to obtain the required answer in otz:

\frac{3.2gAu}{1short-ton}*1short-ton*\frac{1otz}{31.1g} \\

Where the short tons are cancelled out as well as the grams, in order to obtain:

0.103 otz

112 g of aluminum carbide react with 174 g water to produce methane and aluminum hydroxide in the reaction shown below.
dolphi86 [110]

<u>Answer:</u> 4.999 moles of excess reactant will be left over.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is completely consumed in the reaction and limits the formation of the product.

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is left behind after the completion of the reaction.

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}       .....(1)

Given mass of aluminium carbide = 112 g

Molar mass of aluminium carbide = 143.96 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1:

\text{Moles of aluminium carbide}=\frac{112g}{143.96g/mol}=0.778mol

For the given chemical reaction:

2Al_4C_3(s)+12H_2O(l)\rightarrow 3CH_4(g)+4Al(OH)_3(s)

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of aluminium carbide reacts with 12 moles of water

So, 0.778 moles of aluminium carbide will react with = \frac{12}{2}\times 0.778=4.668 mol of water

Given mass of water = 174 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1:

\text{Moles of water}=\frac{174g}{18g/mol}=9.667mol

Moles of excess reactant (water) left = 9.667 - 4.668 = 4.999 moles

Hence, 4.999 moles of excess reactant will be left over.
