Answer:

The kind of ionic compound formed is MX2.

Explanation:

Element X electron  configuration is represented as [core] ns2np5. The group in the periodic table this element belong to is group 7A.  The element group is called the halogen family. Element X cannot be stated specifically, because the number is represented with n.  Element X will behave as an anions when it react with a metal(cations). Element X has a charge of -1. The element X will gain electron when it bond with a metal. Element X is a non metal . Elements  in this group are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine , astatine, and tennessine . The element X have 7 valency electrons.

Element M electronic configuration is represented as  [core]ns2. The group in the periodic table this element belong to is group 2A . The element  group is called the alkaline earth metals family . Element M will behave as a cation when it bond with a non metal. Element M is a metal , therefore it will likely lose electron to form cations during bonding . The charge of element M is 2+. Element M is positively charged. Elements that belong to this group includes beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.  Element M has 2 valency electrons.

The reaction between this 2 ions will likely form an ionic compound . The element M is the cations while the element X is the anions. The element M will lose 2 electron while 2 atoms of element  X will gain 2 electrons.Element M will lose 2 electron to attain a stable configuration while 2 atoms of element X will gain a single electron each to attain a stable configuration.

M²+ and F- . This will form MX2 when you cross multiply the charge. The kind of ionic compound formed is MX2.

It takes 11.2 kj of energy to raise the temperature of 145 g of benzene from 22.0°c to 67.0°c. what is the specific heat of benz
Cloud [144]
We can use the heat equation,
Q = mcΔT 

where Q is the amount of energy transferred (J), m is the mass of the substance (kg), c is the specific heat (J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹) and ΔT is the temperature difference (°C).
Q = 11.2 kJ = 11200 J
m = <span>145 g
</span>c = ?
ΔT = (67 - 22) °C = 45 °C
By applying the formula,
11200 J = 145 g x c x 45 °C
           c = 1.72 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹

Hence, specific heat of benzene is 1.72 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹.

Write the symbol for each of the following ions:
kap26 [50]

Answer:

a) _{31}^{71}\textrm {P^{3+}}

b) _{35}^{80}\textrm {Br^{-}}

c) _{90}^{232}\textrm {Th^{4+}}

d) _{38}^{87}\textrm {Sr^{2+}}

Explanation:

For neutral atoms:

Atomic Number (Z)= number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number (A) = number of protons + number of neutrons

For ions with positive net charge:

Number of protons = Z + net charge

For ions with negative net charge:

Number of protons= Z - net charge

a) A = 71, Charge = +3

Number of electrons = 28

Number of protons = 28 +3 =31

_{31}^{71}\textrm {P^{3+}}

b)  A = 35, Z = 45+35=80, Charge = -1

Number of protons =35

Number of neutrons = 45

Number of electrons = 36

Charge = Number of protons- Number of electrons =35-36 = -1

_{35}^{80}\textrm {Br^{-}}

c)  Charge = +4

Number of electrons = 86

Number of protons = Z = 86+4 = 90

mass number = A = 90+142 = 232

_{90}^{232}\textrm {Th^{4+}}

d)  Charge = +2

Atomic number = Number of protons = Z = 38

mass number = A = 87

_{38}^{87}\textrm {Sr^{2+}}

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The arrow points from the reactants to the products, so just follow the arrows.

Explanation:

some have the reactants on the left and the products on the right, and others are the opposite... just know that

reactants---------> products

or

Calculate the molarity of a salt solution with a volume of 0.250L that contains 0.70 mol of NaCl. (SHOW WORK)
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

= 0.28M

Explanation:

data:

volume = 0.250 L

           = 0.250dm^3                       ( 1litre = 1dm^3)

moles = 0.70 moles

Solution:

      molarity = \frac{no. of moles}{volume in dm^3}

                 = 0.70 / 0.250

    molarity = 0.28 M
