Write an equation that shows the formation of a sodium ion from a neutral sodium atom.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Korolek [52]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

Sodium (Na) is a group 1 element because it has 1 electron in it's outermost shell.

Sodium ion (Na+) is formed when sodium atom (Na) lose it's outermost electron to attain the octet configuration of the noble gas element.

This can further be seen from the equation given below:

Na —> Na+ + e

Thus, we can represent the above in electronic configuration form as follow:

Na (11) => 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s¹

Na+ (10) => 1s² 2s²2p⁶

A 3.78-gram sample of iron metal is reacted with sulfur to produce 5.95 grams of iron sulfide. Determine the empirical formula o
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is FeS₃

Explanation:

Data

mass of Fe = 3.78g

mass of S = 5.95 g

mass of FeS

Chemical Balanced Reaction

                           Fe   +   S     ⇒    FeS

Process

1.- Convert the grams to moles

For Iron

                              55.85g of Fe --------------  1 mol

                               3.78 g of Fe -----------  x

                               x = (3.78 x 1) / 55.85

                               x = 0.0677 moles

For Sulfur

                              32 g of S ------------------- 1 mol

                               5.95 g     ------------------  x

                               x = (5.95 x 1)/32

                               x = 0.185 moles

2.- Divide by the lowest number of moles

Iron = 0.0677 /0.0677 = 1

Sulfur = 0.185 /0.0677 = 2.73 ≈  3

3.- Write the empirical formula

                                 FeS₃

A Brønsted-Lowry base.

Ammonia is an acceptor of proton.

Explanation:

A Brønsted-Lowry acid is any atom that can donate a proton (H +) to another atom or molecule whereas Brønsted-Lowry base is any species that can accept a proton from another atom or molecule or in other words, a Brønsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor, while on the other hand, a Brønsted-Lowry base is a proton acceptor. The ammonia molecule accepts the hydrogen ion is considered as the Brønsted-Lowry base.
