Write an equation that shows the formation of a selenide ion from a neutral selenium atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
Georgia [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Se + 2e- => Se-2

Explanation:

Ions are electrically charged particles, formed due to the gain or loss of electrons by an atom.

There are two types of ions cations and anions. An element that loses their electrons and forms positive ions are cations while metals and element that gains one or more electrons and forms negative ions are anions.

Selenium is an atom with atomic number 34 and represented as Se. The electronic configuration of Se is  1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p4. Selenium will gain 2 more electrons to complete it p orbital and form an ion Se-2.

The equation is as below:

Se + 2e- => Se-2

What is the empirical formula for the following molecular formula: C10H5O2
Tju [1.3M]

The empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula : C₁₀H₅O₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Molecular formula : C₁₀H₅O₂

Required

The empirical formula

Solution

The empirical formula (EF) is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.  

The molecular formula (MF) is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.  

(empirical formula) n = molecular formula  

<em>(EF)n=MF </em>

(EF)n = C₁₀H₅O₂

If we divide by the number of moles of Oxygen (the smallest) which is 2 then the moles of Hydrogen will be a decimal number (not whole), which is 2.5, then the empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula

The organs of the digestive system such as the pancreas, liver, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine help in the digestion of food.

<h3>What are organs?</h3>

Organs are a collection of tissues that are closely related and which perform a related function.

The role and function of the organs of the digestive system are as follows:

  • Pancreas - produces pancreatic juice which contain digestive enzymes
  • Liver - produces bile for the emulsification of fat
  • Stomach - serves as a temporary store of food and produces digestive juices
  • Small intestine - functions in food digestion
  • Large Intestine - helps to remove undigested food from the body

Therefore, the organs of the digestive system such as the pancreas, liver, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine help in the digestion of food.

Identify the true statements about colloids.
Mashutka [201]

Answer : The true statements are:

(a) Emulsions are a type of colloid

(b) The particles of a colloid are larger than the particles of a solution

(d) Many colloids scatter light (tyndal effect)

Explanation :

Colloid : It is defined as the solution in which the one substance is insoluble in another solution that means the insoluble substance rotating in the solution.

The particles of a colloid are larger than the particles of a solution.

Colloid do not separate on standing.

Cannot be separated by filtration.

Scatter light (Tyndall effect).

For example :

Milk is considered as a colloid because various substances (fats, proteins etc..) are present in milk which are suspended in a solution.

Suspension : It is a heterogeneous mixture in which some of the particles are settle down in the mixture on standing or over time.

The particles in a suspension are far larger than those of a solution.

Emulsion : It is a mixture of two or more liquids that are normally immiscible.

Emulsions are a type of colloid.
