the determination of a chemical formula n this experiment, you will use the law of definite proportions to find the chemical for

mula for ahydrated compound containing copper, chlorine, and water molecules locked in the crystal structure of the solid compound. The general formula for the compound is CuxCly•zH2O, and its name is copper chloride hydrate. The letters x, y, and z represent integers that will establish the proper chemical formula for this substance. First, you will gently heat a sample

Answer: Strictly a laboratory analysis and can only be done using the data obtained during analysis

Explanation:

To find a solution to this problem, you need to use the data collected during the lab work. A guide could be finding the possible forms of hydrated copper chlorides in reference books. Since it's also a lab work, you can definitely compare your data with lab mates.

The formula CuxCly.zH₂O and its name chloride hydrate already gives you an idea of the possibilities of the value of the integers, hence you can take a good guess for the identity of the unknown salt and calculate the theoretical formular weight for it. From the that you can proceed to also find the mass of water and copper from your lab analysis.

Which net ionic equation best represents the reaction that occurs when an aqueous solution of barium chloride is mixed with an a
vovangra [49]

Answer : The net ionic equation will be:

Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)

Explanation :

Complete ionic equation : In complete ionic equation, all the substance that are strong electrolyte and present in an aqueous are represented in the form of ions.

Net ionic equation : In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

The balanced molecular equation will be,

BaCl_2(aq)+Li_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2LiCl(aq)+BaSO_4(s)

The complete ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

Ba^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2Li^+(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Li^+(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+BaSO_4(s)

In this equation the species, Li^+\text{ and }Cl^{-} are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions , we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be:

Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)

Atomic radius increases as you move down a group of elements.
raketka [301]
Yes, the atomic radius increases as you move down a group of elements.  this is true
going down leads to valence electrons that are further away from nucleus -> less electrostatic attraction -> less pull towards nuc. -> greater radius/volume taken

An atom X has three electrons in its outermost shell. Which ion will most likely be formed by X?
DedPeter [7]

Answer: X3+

Explanation:

Every atom aim to achieve stability by receiving electrons or giving their valence electrons in order to have a complete outermost shell of 2 (duplet) or 8 (octet structure).

In this case, the atom X will easily give off its three valence electrons to another atom(s), thereby forming a trivalent positive ion (X3+) with a stable duplet or octet structure (i.e an outermost shell with 2 or 8 electrons).

X --> X3+ + 3e-

Thus, due to the give away of three electrons (3e-), the atom X becomes X3+.
