How are ions formed?

Chemistry
1 answer:
stepan [7]3 years ago
3 0

Hey there!

Your answer is c. by the transfer of one or more electrons from one atom to another.

Ions can be positive or negative. Positive ions are called cations, and negative ions are called anions.

Electrons are transferred because two atoms have a large difference of electronegativity and the electrons are shared so unequally that the electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another, forming ions.

Hope this helps!

(Yield Problem)

Answer:

Percent Yield Fe  =  82.5%

Explanation:

The actual yield is the value produced after an experiment is conducted. The theoretical yield is the value calculated using the balanced chemical equation and atomic/molar masses.

To find the percent yield of iron (Fe), you need to (1) convert grams Al to moles Al (via atomic mass), then (2) convert moles Al to moles Fe (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), then (3) convert moles Fe to grams Fe (via atomic mass), and then (4) calculate the percent yield. It is important to arrange the ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given values.

Atomic Mass (Mg): 24.305 g/mol

Atomic Mass (Fe): 55.845 g/mol

3 Mg + 2 FeCl₃ -----> 2 Fe + 3 MgCl₂

20.5 g Mg           1 mole              2 moles Fe            55.845 g
-----------------  x  -----------------  x  ----------------------  x  -----------------  =  
                           24.305 g           3 moles Mg             1 mole

=  31.4 g Fe

                                     Actual Yield
Percent Yield  =  ----------------------------------  x  100%
                                 Theoretical Yield

                               25.9 g Fe
Percent Yield  =  --------------------  x  100%
                               31.4 g Fe

Percent Yield  =  82.5%
