Na₂O is an ionic compound. Na is in group 1 which means it has one electron in the outer shell. O is in group 6 so it has 6 electrons in the outer shell.
To become stable atoms need to either lose the electrons in the outer shell or gain electrons to gain a complete outer shell configuration. 
To become stable Na loses its outer electron and becomes positively charged. It only loses one electron, so net charge is +1. O to become stable gains 2 electrons to complete its outer shell and becomes negatively charged. since it gains 2 electrons, the net charge is -2. 
cation - Na⁺
anion - O²⁻
O gains 2 electrons but Na can give only one electron, therefore 2 Na⁺ ions are required. 
the compound can be written by exchanging the charges
  ions         Na⁺       O²⁻
charge       +1       -2
exchange   Na₂O
Correct answer is <span>Na has +1 charge and O has -2 charge</span>

Which particle model diagram represents xenon at stp?
Readme [11.4K]

The model that should show the corresct representation of xenon gas is one in which the gas molecules  are isolated and monoatomic.

<h3>What is a noble gas?</h3>

A noble gas is a member of group 18 of the periodic table. Noble gases are known not to interact with each other and occur as monoatomic particles.

The images are not shown here hence the question is incomplete. However, we do know that any of the models that show individual monoatomic particles is a representation of xenon gas.

Calcule la molaridad de una solución acuosa de ácido sulfúrico (H₂SO₄) que se preparó al mezclar, en un recipiente aforado, 4 mo
oee [108]

Considerando la definición de molaridad, la molaridad de una solución acuosa de ácido sulfúrico (H₂SO₄) es 0.5 \frac{moles}{litro}.

La molaridad es una medida de la concentración de un soluto en una disolución que se define como el número de moles de soluto que están disueltos en un determinado volumen.

La molaridad de una solución se calcula dividiendo los moles del soluto por el volumen de la solución:

Molaridad=\frac{numero de moles de soluto}{volumen}

La Molaridad se expresa en las unidades \frac{moles}{litro}.

En este caso, sabes que una solución acuosa se preparó al mezclar 4 moles del ácido con suficiente agua hasta completar 8 litros de solución. Entonces, sabes que:

  • número de moles de soluto= 4 moles
  • volumen= 8 litros

Reemplazando en la definición de molaridad:

Molaridad=\frac{4 moles}{8 litros}

Resolviendo:

Molaridad= 0.5 \frac{moles}{litro}

Finalmente, la molaridad de una solución acuosa de ácido sulfúrico (H₂SO₄) es 0.5 \frac{moles}{litro}.
