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

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Balanced] 2Al₂O₃ → 4Al + 3O₂

[Given] 20 mol Al₂O₃

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 2 mol Al₂O₃ → 4 mol Al

<u>Step 3: Stoich</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                     \displaystyle 20 \ mol \ Al_2O_3(\frac{4 \ mol \ Al}{2 \ mol \ Al_2O_3})
  2. [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]:                                                         \displaystyle 40 \ mol \ Al

<u>Step 4:Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 1 sig fig.</em>

Calculate the mass (in grams) of 8.56 moles of sulfur.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

275g

Explanation:

Depending on the molar mass you are given, you can use that to solve this.

(I'm going based on my science class' molar mass of sulphur being 32.07g/mol)

Starting off, the formula for finding moles is

n=m/M (moles = mass / molar mass)

We can manipulate this equation to solve for mass.

m=Mn

now fill in what we now.

m = 32.07*8.56

mass = 274.5192

Now round for significant digits (if you are needed to do)

mass = 275g
