What is the formula of a compound formed between iodine (I) and calcium (Ca)?

Chemistry

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula for the compound will be CaI_2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Calcium is the 20th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of [Ar]4s^2

This element will loose 2 electrons and thus shows an oxidation state of +2 units.

Iodine is the 53rd element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of [Kr]5s^24d^{10}5p^5

This element requires 1 electron and thus shows an oxidation state of -1 units.

So, by criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions will get exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

Hence, the chemical formula for the compound formed will be CaI_2

Answer:

pKa = 3.675

Explanation:

  • pKa = - Log Ka

∴ <em>C</em> X-281 = 0.079 M

∴ pH = 2.40

let X-281 a weak acid ( HA ):

∴ HA ↔ H+ + A-

⇒ Ka = [H+] * [A-] / [HA]

mass balance:

⇒<em> C</em> HA = 0.079 M = [HA] + [A-]

⇒ [HA] = 0.079 - [A-]

charge balance:

⇒ [H+] = [A-] + [OH-]... [OH-] is negligible; it comes from to water

⇒ [H+] = [A-]

∴ pH = - log [H+] = 2.40

⇒ [H+] = 3.981 E-3 M

replacing in Ka:

⇒ Ka = [H+]² / ( 0.079 - [H+] )

⇒ Ka = ( 3.981 E-3 )² / ( 0.079 - 3.981 E-3 )

⇒ Ka = 2.113 E-4

⇒ pKa = - Log ( 2.113 E-4 )

⇒ pKa = 3.675
