Answer : The IUPAC name of Al_2S_3 is aluminum sulfide.

Explanation :

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced.

The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Ionic compound : It is a type of compound that is made up of the ions of the two different elements in which one element is a metal and another element is a non-metal.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

  • Positive is written first.
  • The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

The given compound is, Al_2S_3

Here aluminum is having an oxidation state of (+3) called as Al^{3+} cation and sulfur S^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of (-2). Thus, they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral Al_2S_3 called as aluminum sulfide.

Hence, the IUPAC name of Al_2S_3 is aluminum sulfide.

Compute diffusion coefficients for the interdiffusion of carbon in both (a) α-iron (BCC) and (b) γ-iron (FCC) at 800.˚C. Assume
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

a)1.404 E-10 m^2/s

b)1.438 E-12 m^2/s

Explanation:

Diffusion Coefficients can be calculated at different temperatures taking into account the energy of the diffusive process, remember that this process takes place in the interstices of the solid, and gets with higher temperatures due to the higher kinetic energy of the particles.

D=D_{o} *exp(-Q/RT)

a) For α-iron (BCC)

D=1.10*10^{-6} m^{2}/s *exp(-80.0kJ/mol/8.314*10^{-3}kJ/mol*k*1073.15K)= 1.404*10^{-10} m^{2}/s

b) For γ-iron (FCC)

D=2.30*10^{-5} m^{2}/s *exp(-148.0kJ/mol/8.314*10^{-3}kJ/mol*k*1073.15K)= 1.438*10^{-12} m^{2}/s

How can we find the volume of this fish tank? Please I needed but Good
lawyer [7]
Volume well in the picture the fish tank seems to be a rectangle, so you would do V=length x width x height. So V=5x3x3=45

500.0 mL of a gas is collected at 745.0 mm Hg. what what will the volume be at standard pressure
Irina-Kira [14]
This is an application of Boyle's law:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂. we don't have to convert volume and pressure to standard forms. we can even use the pressure with mmHg
1 atm = 760 mmHg 
V₂ = P₁V₁ / P₂ = 745 x 500 / 760 = 490 ml
Note that here we assume constant temperature
