<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula for the compound formed will be BaS

<u>Explanation:</u>

Barium is the 56th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of [Xe]6s^2

This element looses 2 electrons and thus shows an oxidation state of +2 units.

Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of [Ne]3s^23p^4

This element requires 2 electrons and thus shows an oxidation state of -2 units.

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

Thus, the chemical formula for the compound formed will be BaS

Answer:

Mass  = 8 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of MgO formed  = 20 g

Mass of oxygen needed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Mg + O₂     →    2MgO

Number of moles of MgO:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20 g/ 40 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of MgO and O₂ from balance chemical equation:

                     MgO         :            O₂

                        2            :            1

                      0.5          :        1/2×0.5 = 0.25 mol

Mass of oxygen required:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass of O₂  is 32 g/mol

Mass = 0.25 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 8 g

Is the following sentence true or false carbon atoms can only form a single bond between other carbon atomd?
Norma-Jean [14]
Carbon atom has 4 valence electron and can form 4 bonds with carbon and other atoms and it can also form single, double and triple bond with other carbon atoms.
So, the statement is false.

What is the difference between evaporation and transpiration? What role does each process play in the water cycle?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Evaporation happens from the any water body (like ponds, rivers, water stored in cup etc) while the transpiration essentially happens in plants only.

The evaporation and transpiration plays a major role in the water cycle as they help in formation of clouds and precipitation

Explanation:

Evaporation:

It is the process of formation and transfer of the water vapor from the surface of the liquid into the atmosphere.

Transpiration:

It is the process of transfer of the water vapors in the atmosphere from the pores present in the leaves of the plants.

The water is carried from the ground through the stems to the leaves.

The major difference between the evaporation and transpiration is that the evaporation happens from the any water body (like ponds, rivers, water stored in cup etc) while the transpiration essentially happens in plants only.

The evaporation and transpiration plays a major role in the water cycle as these process helps in transfer of the surface water into the atmosphere, which helps in formation of clouds and precipitation.

How do chemical bonds form between the atoms in a molecular compound
Arturiano [62]
Molecular compound is used to describe elements that are covalently bonded

whereas covalent compounds generally consist of molecules, which are groups of atoms in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared between bonded atoms. In a covalent bond, atoms are held together by the electrostatic attraction between the positively charged nuclei of the bonded atoms and the negatively charged electrons they share.
