Answer:
The Relative Formula Mass of Fe(NO₃)₂ is 179.8524 grams
Explanation:
The Relative Formula Mass is the mass of one mole of a compound expressed in grams, obtained by adding together the Relative Atomic Masses, RAM, of the elements which makes the compound
The Relative Formula Mass of a compound is the same as its Relative Molecular Mass
The relative formula mass of Fe(NO₃)₂ is given as follows;
The relative atomic mass of Fe = 55.845 amu
The relative atomic mass of nitrogen, N = 14.0067 amu
The relative atomic mass of oxygen, O = 15.999 amu
Therefore, we have;
The formula mass of Fe(NO₃)₂ = (55.845 + 2×(14.0067 + 3×15.999)) amu = 179.8524 amu
The Relative Formula Mass of Fe(NO₃)₂ = 179.8524 grams.
Answer:
- <u><em>Magnesium and fluorine.</em></u>
Explanation:
<em>Ionic compounds</em> are formed by the electrostatic attraction of cations and anions.
Cations, positive ions, are formed when atoms lose electrons, and anions, negative ions, are formed when atoms gain electrons.
When two different atoms have similar atraction for electrons (electronegativity) they will not donate to nor catch electrons from each other, so cations and anions will not be formed. Instead, the atoms would prefer to share electrons forming covalent bonds to complete their outermost shell (octet rule).
Then, in order to form ionic compounds the electronegativities have to substantially different. This situation does not happen between two nonmetal elements, which nitrogen and sulfur are. Then, you can predict safely that nitrogen and sulfur will not form an ionic compound.
Ionic compounds, then require the electronegativity difference that exist between some metals and nonmetals. Being magnesium an alkaline earth metal, its electronegativity is very low. On the other hand, fluorine the first element of the group 17, has the highest electronegativity of all the elements.Thus magnesium and fluorine will have enough electronegativity difference to justify the exchange of electrons, forming ions and, consequently, ionic compounds.
Answer:
Total partial pressure, Pt = 821 mm Hg
Partial pressure of Helium, P1 = 105 mm Hg
Partial pressure of Nitrogen, P2 = 312 mm Hg
Partial pressure of Oxygen, P3 = ? mm Hg
According to Dalton's law of Partial pressures,
Pt = P1 + P2 + P3
So, <u>P3 = 404 mm Hg</u>
