I'd guess A or D, but my gut says A
Mass using grams because of the balance scale is evenly weighted not from springs and gravity like a normal scale.
When the reaction equation is:
CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)
we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.
to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
when P is the pressure = 1.1 atm
and V is the volume = 14.5 L
n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)
R ideal gas constant = 0.0821
and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K
so, by substitution:
1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5
∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)
= 0.68 moles SO2
∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles
so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:
when mass = moles * molar mass
and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol
∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g
Answer: The correct formula is 
Explanation:
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
Here magnesium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as
cation and bromine
is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral
.
The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.
