 <span>Molecular compounds, which are represented by molecules, are usually made of non-metals only (or of metalloids and non-metals). Ionic compounds, which are represented by formula units, are made of metals and non-metals. 

More detail if you're interested: Molecules and formula units are the representative particles for molecular and ionic compounds, respectively. By that I mean, one unit of a molecular compound is a molecule...a bundle of atoms covalently bonded that exists separately from all the other molecules. One unit of an ionic compound is a formula unit. A formula unit is a representation of the compound's formula. For example, the formula unit of NaCl is one Na^+1 ion and one Cl^-1 ion. The formula unit of AlCl3 is one Al^+3 ion and three Cl^-1 ions. Ionic compounds don't have separate bundles of atoms like molecular compounds do, so the formula unit is just the smallest number of ions that it takes to represent the formula. </span>

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below is the solution:

 <span>moles HClO4 = 0.100 L x 0.18 M = 0.018 
moles LiOH = 0.030 L x 0.27 = 0.0081 
moles H+ in excess = 0.018 - 0.0081 = 0.0099 
total volume = 0.130 L 
[H+] = 0.0099/ 0.130= 0.0762 M 
pH = 1.12</span>

22.5 g of silver nitrate reacts with excess magnesium bromide, determine the mass
Setler [38]

Answer:

9.82 g of Mg(NO₃)₂

Explanation:

Let's determine the reaction:

2AgNO₃  +  MgBr₂  → Mg(NO₃)₂  +  2AgBr

2 moles of nitrate silver reacts with MgBr₂ in order to produce 1 mol of magnesium nitrate and silver bromide.

We determine the moles of AgNO₃

22.5 g . 1mol / 169.87g = 0.132 moles

Ratio is 2:1.

2 moles of silver nitrate can produce 1 mol of magnesium nitrate

Then, our 0.132 moles may produce (0.132 . 1)/ 2 = 0.0662 moles

We convert moles to mass:

0.0662 mol . 148.3 g/ mol = 9.82 g
