Argon is a suitable choice for light bulbs because it's inert. Compared to a reactive gas like oxygen, the metal filimant would burn up in a reactive enviroment, which is why a noble gas is used.
Answer:
Potassium cation = K⁺²
Explanation:
The metal cation in K₂SO₄ is K⁺². While the anion is SO₄²⁻.
All the metals have tendency to lose the electrons and form cation. In given compound the metal is potassium so it should form the cation. The overall compound is neutral.
The charge on sulfate is -2. While the oxidation state of potassium is +1. So in order to make compound overall neutral there should be two potassium cation so that potassium becomes +2 and cancel the -2 charge on sulfate and make the charge on compound zero.
2K⁺² , SO₄²⁻
K₂SO₄
Answer:
294.87 gm CaCl_2
Explanation:
The computation of the mass of calcium chloride is shown below:
But before that following calculations need to be done
Number of moles of chlorine atom is
= 3.20 × 10^24 ÷ 6.022 × 10^23
= 5.314 moles
As we know that
1 mole CaCl_2 have the 2 moles of chlorine atoms
Now 5.341 mole chloride atoms would be
= 1 ÷ 2 × 5.314
= 2.657 moles
Now
Mass of CaCl_2 = Number of moles × molar mass of CaCl_2
= 2.657 moles × 110.98 g/mol
= 294.87 gm CaCl_2
