Answer:
+1
Explanation:
For the equation to be balanced, the total mass number and the total atomic number on both side of the equation but be equal.
This is illustrated:
For the mass number:
Left side: 22
Right side: 22 + 0 = 22
For the atomic number:
Left side: 11
Right side: 10 + x
11 = 10 + x
Collect like terms
x = 11 - 10
x = 1

Answer:
(a)57.48 percent (b) 29.45 percent
Explanation:
copper(II) bromide is 29.45 percent copper and 71.54 percent bromine. so the first element percentage composition is always the percentage composition of the compound.
that goes same with sodium hydroxide. it is 57.48 percent sodium, 40 percent oxygen, and 2.52 percent hydrogen.
To find the chemical formula of an ionic compound, the first step is to find the charge of the 2 ions. As given already, the charge of sodium ion is 1+, and carbonate ion has a charge of 2-. We can picture it like that: Sodium ion loses 1 electron and carbonate ion gains 2.
The next step is to find how the 2 ions can lose and gain electrons equally. In this case, since each Na ion only loses 1 electron, it cannot satisfy the need of one carbonate ion, since they need 2, not 1. Therefore, 2 Na ions can cover the need of one carbonate ion. So, the ratio of Na to CO3 ion should be 2:1.
Now just combine the 2 ions, positive one at the front, which makes it NaCO3, make sure you do not add the charge and notice that CO3 is a molecule itself so do not remove the 3. Now because the ratio is 2:1, so the final formula is Na2CO3, no need to add 1 if the ratio is 1.
Your answer should be Na2CO3.
