Natalija [7]3 years ago

Given the index of refraction, n and speed of light in the vacuum, c, we can solve for the speed of light in the transparent substance by the equation below.
                                                n = c / v
where v is our unknown.
Substituting the known values,
                                            1.7 = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / v
The value of v is equal to 1.76 x 10^8 m/s.

In the writing of ionic chemical formulas, what factor is "crossed over" in the crossover rule?
Aleks04 [339]

In the writing of ionic chemical formulas the value of each ion's charge is crossed over in the crossover rule.

Rules for naming Ionic compounds

  • Frist Rule
    The cation (element with a negative charge) is written first in the name then the anion(element with a positive charge) is written second in the name.
  • Second rule
    When the formula unit contains two or more of the same polyatomic ion, that ion is written in parentheses with the subscript written outside the parentheses.
    Example: Sodium carbonate is written as Na₂CO₃ not Na₂(CO)₃
  • Third rule
    If the cation is a metal ion with a fixed charge then the name of the cation will remain the same as the (neutral) element from which it is derived (Example: Na+ will be sodium).
    If the cation is a metal ion with a variable charge, the charge on the cation is indicated using a Roman numeral, in parentheses, immediately following the name of the cation (example: Fe³⁺ = iron(III)).
  • Fourth rule
    If the anion is a monatomic ion, the anion is named by adding the suffix <em>-ide</em> to the root of the element name (example: F = Fluoride).

The oxidation state of each ion is also important, thus in the crossover rule, the value of each ion's charge is crossed over.
