Answer:

Co_3(PO_4)_2

Explanation:

Naming of the ionic compounds:-

  • The name of the cation is written first and the the name of the anion is written after the name of the cation separated by single space.
  • The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.
  • In case of transition metals, the oxidation state are written in roman numerals in bracket in front of positive ions.

Hence, given ionic compound:-

Cobalt(II) phosphate

So, Cobalt will have a positive charge of +2

Phosphate is PO_4^{3-}

So, the formula is :-

Co         PO_4^{3-}

2                    3

Co_3(PO_4)_2

Table salt is a refined salt containing about 97 to 99% sodium Chloride iodized salt containing potassium iodide is widely avail
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. It is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Both atoms are bonded together electrostatic attraction occur between anion and cations.

Sodium atom have one valance electron by losing this one valance electron sodium atom get the complete octet. Chlorine atom has seven valance electrons and needed to lose seven valance electrons or to get one electron and thus complete the octet. It is very easy for chlorine atom to get one electrons instead of losing all seven electron. Thus when it react with sodium it gain the valance electron of sodium and form ionic compound.

That's why only one atom of  sodium combine with one atom chlorine.

Write a hypothesis using IF-THEN - BECAUSE of statement. (PLEASE HELP)
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Water is an essential part of life and its availability is important for all living creatures. On the other side, the world is suffering from a major problem of drinking water. There are several gases, microorganisms and other toxins (chemicals and heavy metals) added into water during rain, flowing water, etc. which is responsible for water pollution. This review article describes various applications of nanomaterial in removing different types of impurities from polluted water. There are various kinds of nanomaterials, which carried huge potential to treat polluted water (containing metal toxin substance, different organic and inorganic impurities) very effectively due to their unique properties like greater surface area, able to work at low concentration, etc. The nanostructured catalytic membranes, nanosorbents and nanophotocatalyst based approaches to remove pollutants from wastewater are eco-friendly and efficient, but they require more energy, more investment in order to purify the wastewater. There are many challenges and issues of wastewater treatment. Some precautions are also required to keep away from ecological and health issues. New modern equipment for wastewater treatment should be flexible, low cost and efficient for the commercialization purpose.
