Cation is formed when an atom of mercury (Hg) loses two electrons.
Answer:
To determine the correct subscripts in a chemical formula, you have to solve how many atoms you need to balance the charge.
For example if I had the compound Calcium Fluoride I would look at the periodic table and see that Calcium's ionic formula is
Ca2+
. How do I know this? Well all elements want to have 8 valance electrons so they can be stable(happy). Seeing that Calcium has 2 valance electrons it is going to give away 2 electrons because that is easier than gaining 6 to be happy. Since Calcium has given away 2 electrons it has two more protons than electrons. We know that Protons have a Positive charge, Electrons have Negative charge, and the number of electrons is equal to the atomic number of an element in its pure non-ionic state. (Meaning it doesn't have a positive or negative charge; it is balanced.)
So if calcium gave away two electrons, it will have two more protons than an electron giving it a (2+) charge. The same process can be applied to Fluoride. Since fluoride is one to the left of the noble gases(group 18 or 8A) on the periodic table we know that it has 7 valance electrons because it is in group 7A or 17.
Knowing that we have 7 electrons the fluoride atom will gain an extra electron. Since the fluoride atom gained an extra electron it will have one more negative charge than a positive making it a ^(−)ion.
So you know that Calcium has a 2+ charge and that fluoride has a 1- charge, you then need these ions to balance out. So you need two fluorine atoms with a 1- ions to balance out the 2+ ion of calcium. Your final answer would be
CaF2
because you need two fluorine atoms to balance out the 2+ charge of the calcium.
Final Tip: Determine the charges then inverse the charges, remove the positive and negative superscipts, and write the charge numbers as a sub script. Ie. Calcium Fluoride
Ca2+ and F−
inversing and removing the charge signs would give you
Step 1 : write a valanced equation..
NaOH + HCl 》NaCl + H2O
Step 2 : find the number of mole of HCl..
1000 ml ..contains 4.3 mole
15ml... (4.3÷1000)×15 =...
Stem 3 : use mole ratio....
HCl : NaOH
1 : 1
So mole is same as calculated above...
Step 4 :
3.5 mole of NaOH is in 1000ml
(4.3÷1000)×15 mole is in ....
Do the calculation
The oceanographers define salinity by the number of grams of salt per kilogram of water.
Salinity is illustrated as how much salt is present in the given amount of water. It is dependent upon how much salt is found in the ocean in the specific regions. If there is a sunny environment, it may evaporate an ample amount of water, and leave behind a lot of salt, thus, the water has more salinity.
The salinity of the ocean is usually measured in Practical Salinity Unit (PSU), it is a unit based on the characteristics of seawater conductivity.
