Potassium oxide: K₂O.
There's no need for prefixes since K₂O is an ionic compound.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
Find the two elements on a periodic table:
- Potassium- K- on the left end of period four.
- Oxygen- O- near the right end of periodic two.
Elements on the bottom-left corner of the periodic table are metals. Those on the top-right corner are nonmetals.
- Potassium is a metal,
- Oxygen is a nonmetal.
A metal and a nonmetal combine to form an ionic compound. Potassium oxide is likely to be an ionic compound. It contains two types of ions:
- Potassium ions: Potassium is group 1 of the periodic table. It is an alkaline metal. Like other alkaline metals such as sodium Na, potassium K tends to lose one electron and form ions of charge +1 in compounds. The ion would be K⁺.
- Oxide ions from oxygen: Oxygen is the second most electronegative element on the periodic table. It tends to gain two electrons and form the oxide ion
when it combines with metals.
The two types of ions carry opposite charges. They shall pair up at a certain ratio such that they balance the charge on each other. The charge on each ion is twice that on a 
ion. Each would pair up with two . Hence the subscript in the formula: 
.
There are two classes of compounds:
- Covalent compounds, which need prefixes, and
- Ionic compounds, which need no prefix.
Prefixes are needed only in covalent compounds. For instance in the covalent compound carbon dioxide 
, the prefix di- indicates that there are two oxygen atoms in the formula . However, there's no need for prefix in ionic compounds such as 
.

2. How many particles of lithium are needed to produce 125 g of copper?
125 g Cu ( 1 mol / 63.55 g ) (1 mol Li / 1 mol Cu ) ( 6.022 x 10^23 particles / 1 mol ) = 1.18x10^24 Li particles
3. How many grams of lithium nitrate are produced from 4.83E24 particles of copper (II) nitrate?
</span>4.83E24 particles of copper (II) nitrate ( 1 mol / 6.022x10^23 particles ) (1 mol Li(NO3)2 / 1 mol Cu(NO3)2 ) ( 130.95 g / 1 mol ) = 1043.77 grams Li(NO3)2
Answer:
Explanation:
Any gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP) has a volume of 22.4 liters per mole or 22.4 L/mol. We can create a proportion with this value.
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6.8 moles of krypton.
The units of moles of krypton will cancel.
The denominator of 1 can be ignored, so this becomes a simple multiplication problem.
If we round to the nearest whole number, the 3 in the tenths place tells us to leave the 2 in the ones place.
6.8 moles of krypton gas at standard temperature and pressure is equal to <u>152 liters</u>.
