Chromium (VI) has a 6+ charge (we can tell that from the number 6 after it) and you should know that Oxygen has a 2- charge (because it needs 2 more electrons to get a full outer shell).

To work out the formula we need to balance the positive and negative charges.

So we have 6+ and 2-...
We need to make 6- so therefore we times the amount of Oxygen by 3.

This makes the formula CrO3.

Hope this is helpful, message me if you have any questions :)

Find the actual yield when the theatrical yield is 1.09g and percent yield is 90%.​
ioda
Actual yield/Theoretical yield *100= Percentage yield. So Actual yield = Percentage yield*Theoretical yield.
Therefore actual yield= 90/100 * 1.09g = 0.98g

Actual yield: 0.98 g

What is the pH of a solution of 0.600 M K2HPO4, potassium hydrogen phosphate?
AleksAgata [21]
<span>When pKas of polyprotic intermediates have a difference of 2 or more you just average them using the equation: pH = (pKa2 + pKa3) / 2  </span>
<span>pKa2 = -log(Ka2) ; pKa3 = -log(Ka3) </span>
<span>so, for this problem, REGARDLESS OF THE CONCENTRATION GIVEN, the answer is:  </span>
<span>pH = (7.2076+12.3767) / 2  </span>
<span>pH = 9.79</span>
