Answer: $CaCl+LiCO_3\rightarrow CaCO_3+LiCl$

Explanation: A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.

In the given reaction:

The molecular formula of Lithium carbonate is incorrect as lithium forms a monovalent cation but carbonate is a divalent polyatomic ion. Thus in order to form a neutral ionic compound two atoms of $Li^+$ must combine with one $CO_3^{2-}$ to give $Li(CO_3)_2$

Which of the following combination of elements would result in covalent compound? * W X Y Z Vand X Wand Z Y and Z Wand y

TEA [102]

Answer:

C. Y & Z

Explanation:

V, W are imaginary metals here because their valence electrons are typically less than 4. X, Y, Z are non-metals and have higher valence electrons. Here, if V or W bind with X, Y, or Z we make ionic bond (because metal + non metal = ionic). But, if X binds with Y or Z or any combinations of any two of the three non-metals results in covalent bond (non metal + non metal = covalent).

Thus, Y and Z make covalent.

Purification of copper can be achieved by electrorefining copper from an impure copper anode onto a pure copper cathode in an el

Dovator [93]

Answer: 406 hours

Explanation:

$Q=I\times t$

where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs

I = current in amperes = 39.5 A

t= time in seconds = ?

The deposition of copper at cathode is represented by:

$Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu$

$96500\times 2=193000$ Coloumb of electricity deposits 1 mole of copper

i.e. 63.5 g of copper is deposited by = 193000 Coloumb

Thus 19.0 kg or 19000 g of copper is deposited by = $\frac{193000}{63.5}\times 19000=57748032$ Coloumb

$57748032=39.5\times t$

$t=1461975sec=406hours$ (1hour=3600s)

Thus it will take 406 hours to plate 19.0 kg of copper onto the cathode if the current passed through the cell is held constant at 39.5 A

Suppose that in an ionic compound, "m" represents a metal that could form more than one type of ion. in the formula mf2 , the ch

geniusboy [140]

F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2
