Is MgC2H3O2, a ionic or covalent?

Chemistry
1 answer:
erma4kov [3.2K]3 years ago
6 0
It is ionic. Magnesium is a metal, so it would make a positive ion (cation) with a charge of +2. The c2h3o2, or acetate, is a common polyatomic ion with a charge of -2. Because one charge is positive and one is negative, the bond will be ionic.

Atoms of element X weigh 32 times more than atoms of element Y. A compound has the formula: XY2 The ratio of the mass of X to th
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

16:1

Explanation:

Atoms of element X weigh 32 times more than atoms of element Y. We can write this in a symbolic way.

mX = 32 mY   [1]

where,

  • mX and mY are the masses of X and Y, respectively

A compound has the formula: XY₂, that is, in 1 molecule of XY₂ there is 1 atom of X and 2 atoms of Y. The ratio of the mass of X to the mass of Y in this compound equals:

mX/2 mY  [2]

If we substitute [1] in [2], we get:

mX/2 mY = 32 mY/2 mY = 16 = 16:1

How to change 5 % W/V of NaCl to ppm , M ? molar mass = 58.5<br>please clear explain​
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

50000ppm and 0.855M.

Explanation:

ppm is an unit of chemistry defined as the ratio between mg of solute (NaCl) and Liters of solution. Molarity, M, is the ratio between moles of NaCl and liters

A 5% (w/v) NaCl contains 5g of NaCl in 100mL of solution.

To solve the ppm of this solution we need to find the mg of NaCl and the L of solution:

<em>mg NaCl:</em>

5g * (1000mg / 1g) = 5000mg

<em>L Solution:</em>

100mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.100L

ppm:

5000mg / 0.100L = 50000ppm

To find molarity we need to obtain the moles of NaCl in 5g using its molar mass:

5g * (1mol / 58.5g) = 0.0855moles NaCl

Molarity:

0.0855mol NaCl / 0.100L = 0.855M
