The chemical formula for the compound magnesium perchlorate is Mg(ClO₄)₂
Magnesium perchlorate or Mg(ClO₄)₂ is an ionic compound.
Perchlorate here is an anion which is represented by ClO₄⁻. Perchlorate is a polyatiomic anion, where one Cl atom is bonded to four O atoms.
The magnesium cation is represented by Mg²⁺
So one Mg²⁺ cation combines with two ClO₄⁻ anion to form one molecule of Mg(ClO₄)₂
Answer:
1.16 mL
Explanation:
Assume the data show that 25 pennies have a total volume of 29.00 mL.

Both of you are overlooking a pretty big component of the question...the Group I cation isn't being dissociated into water. We're testing the solubility of the cation when mixed with HCl. And this IS a legitimate question, seeing as our lab manual is the one asking.
<span>By the way, the answer you're looking for is "Because Group I cations have insoluble chlorides". </span>
<span>"In order...to distinguish cation Group I, one adds HCl to a sample. If a Group I cation is present in the sample, a precipitate will form." </span>
