Answer:

The atoms of the elements in Group 17 (also called the halogens) have seven electrons in their highest occupied energy level (the outer shell). This is why their chemical properties are similar.

Explanation:

They all form acids when combined with hydrogen.

They are all fairly toxic.

They readily combine with metals to form salts.

They have seven valence electrons in their outer shell.

They are highly reactive and electronegative.

Write the formulas for the following ionic compounds: (a) copper bromide (containing the Cu+ ion), (b) manganese oxide (containi

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:The formulas of ionic compounds are:

a) $CuBr$

b) $Mn_2O_3$

c) $Hg_2I_2$

d) $Mg_3(PO_4)_2$

Explanation:

Formulas for the an ionic compounds is determine by:

Criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

(a) Copper bromide :Given that it contains $Cu^+$ ion.

$Cu^++Br^-\rightarrow CuBr$

(b) Manganese oxide : Given that it contains $Mn^{3+}$ ion.

$Mn^{3+}+O^{2-}\rightarrow Mn_2O_3$

(c)Mercury iodide :Given that it contains $Hg_2^{2+}$

$Hg_2^{2+}+I^-\rightarrow Hg_2I_2$

(d) Magnesium phosphate :Given that it contains $PO_4^{3-}$

$Mg^{2+}+PO_4^{3-}\rightarrow Mg_3(PO_4)_2$

A gas occupies a volume of 4.50 L at 44 kPa. What would be the new volume at 50 kPa?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Explanation:

P1= 44 kpa

P2= 50 kpa

V1= 4.50 L

V2= ?

P1 V1= P2 V2

44 × 4.50 = 50 × V2

198= 50 × V2

V2 = 198/ 50

V2= 3.96 L "the new volume"

A naturally occurring oil co-distills with water to produce an oil/water distillate that is 20% oil by weight. If the molecular

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Partial pressure of oil = mole fraction of oil x total pressure

mole fraction of oil = mole of oil / mole of water + mole of oil

= mole of oil = mass of oil / molecular weight of oil

= 20 / 100 = .2

mole of water = 80 / 18

= 4.444

mole fraction of oil = .2 / .2 + 4.444

= .2 / 4.644

Partial pressure of oil = mole fraction of oil x total pressure

= (.2 / 4.644 ) x 760 mm

= 32.73 mm Hg .

If 5.12 liters of a 2.75 M phosphoric acid is neutralized by magnesium hydroxide solution of 4.00 M.

Tresset [83]

Answer:

5.28 L

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question.

Volume of acid (Va) = 5.12L

Molarity of acid (Ma) = 2.75M

Molarity of base (Mb) = 4M

Volume of base (Vb) =.?

Step 2:

The balanced equation for the reaction

2H3PO4 + 3Mg(OH)2 → Mg3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

From the balanced equation above,

Mole ratio of the acid (nA) = 2

Mole ratio of the base (nB) = 3

Step 3:

Determination of the volume of the base.

This is illustrated below:

MaVa/MbVb = nA/nB

2.75 x 5.12 / 4 x Vb = 2/3

Cross multiply

4 x 2 x Vb = 2.75 x 5.12 x 3

Divide both side by 4 x 2

Vb = (2.75 x 5.12 x 3)/(4 x 2)

Vb = 5.28 L

Therefore, the volume of the base is 5.28 L
