Calcium iodide (CaI2) is an ionic bond, which means that electrons are transferred. In order for Ca to become the ion Ca2+, the calcium atom must lose 2 electrons. (Electrons have a negative charge, so when an atom loses 2 electrons, its ion becomes more positive.) In order for I to become the ion I1−, the iodine atom must gain 1 electron. (When an atom gains an electron, its ion will be more negative.) However, the formula for calcium iodide is CaI2 - there are 2 iodine ions present. This makes sense because the iodine ion has a charge of -1, so two iodine ions have to be present to cancel out the +2 charge of the calcium ion. Therefore, the calcium atom transfers 2 valence electrons, one to each iodine atom, to form the ionic bond.
IF WRONG, SORRY
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Using the ideal gas equation, we can calculate the number of moles present. I.e
PV = nRT
Since all the parameters are equal for both gases, we can simply deduce that both has the same number of moles of gases.
The relationship between the mass of each sample and the number of moles can be seen in the relation below :
mass in grammes = molar mass in g/mol × number of moles.
Now , we have established that both have the same number of moles. For them to have the same mass, they must have the same molar masses which is not possible.
Hence option A is wrong
Answer:
In order to find the molecular formula from an empirical formula you must find the ratio of their molecular masses.
We know that the molecular mass of the molecule is 70
gmol-1
. We can calculate the molar mass of
CH2
from the periodic table:
C=12.01
gmol−1
H=1.01
gmol−1
CH2 =14.03
gmol−1
Hence we can find the ratio:
14.03
70
≈
