Answer: The correct answer is Option A.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of nickel chloride = 24.6 g

Molar mass of nickel chloride = 129.6 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of }NiCl_2=\frac{24.6g}{129.6g/mol}=0.19mol$

Formula units is defined as lowest whole number ratio of ions in an ionic compound. It is calculate by multiplying the number of moles by Avogadro's number which is $6.022\times 10^{23}$

We are given:

Number of moles of nickel chloride = 0.19 moles

Number of formula units = $0.19\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=1.1\times 10^{23}$

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.

An ionic bond is formed between

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

A metal and a non-metal

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are formed between two or more atoms by the transfer of one or more electrons between atoms. Electron transfer produces negative ions called anions and positive ions called cations.

Answer:

2H₂ + O₂ → H₂O

Explanation:

The unbalanced equation is

2H₂ + O₂ → H₂O

In a balanced chemical equation, the number of moles of species on both sides of the expression must be the same.

2H₂ + O₂ → H₂O

Reactant Product

H O H O

Number of moles 4 2 2 1

We see that the number of hydrogen and oxygen on both sides of the expression differs significantly.

Adding which of the following substances will decrease the solubility of calcium chloride in water: CaCl2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2 Cl–(aq

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Option b. Sodium chloride.

Explanation:

Consider the dissociation equilibrium of $\rm CaCl_2 \; (s)$ in water:

$\rm CaCl_2 \; (s) \rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+} \; (aq) + 2\; Cl^{-}\; (aq)$ .

By the Le Chatelier's Principle, increasing the concentration of either product will shift the equilibrium to the left. Some $\rm CaCl_2 \; (s)$ that was initially dissolved will precipitate out of the solution. This effect is called the common-ion effect.

For this $\rm CaCl_2 \; (s)$ solution, the products of dissociation are

$\rm Ca^{2+}$ ions, and
$\rm Cl^{-}$ ions.

Adding either to the solution will trigger the common-ion effect and reduce the solubility of $\rm CaCl_2 \; (s)$ .

In the two choices,

Sodium chloride $\rm NaCl$ will add $\rm Na^{+}$ and $\rm Cl^{-}$ ions to the solution.
Sodium fluoride $\rm NaF$ will add $\rm Na^{+}$ and $\rm F^{-}$ ions to the solution.

$\rm NaCl$ contains $\rm Cl^{-}$ ions. It is capable of triggering the common-ion effect. However $\rm NaF$ contains neither $\rm Ca^{2+}$ ions nor $\rm Cl^{-}$ ions. It will not trigger the common-ion effect.
