What happens to valence electrons when ionic bonds are formed

Chemistry
1 answer:
zimovet [89]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are when a metal and a nonmetal attach to form a compound. The difference in electronegativity of these compounds is higher than 1.7.

In this kind of bond, metals lost their valence electrons to obtain stability and nonmetals gain those electrons to gain stability.

Why is sodium metal (very soft and can cut easily) stored under oil?
ioda
Sodium is a very reactive metal. It is kept in kerosene to prevent it from coming in contact with oxygen and moisture. If this happens, it will react with the moisture present in air and form sodium hydroxide.

SO2+O2 SO3 how many moles of O2 needed to combust 100.0g of sulfur dioxide
Oksanka [162]

2SO2 + O2 ------> 2SO3


1) M(SO2)= 32.0 + 2*16.0 = 64 g/mol


2) 100.0 g SO2 * 1 mol SO2/64 g SO2 = 1.5625 mol SO2


3) 2SO2 + O2 ------> 2SO3

2 mol 1 mol

1.5625 mol x mol


x= 1.5625/2=0.78125 ≈ 0.7813 mol O2


Answer: 0.7813 mol O2.

Explain why calcium combines in a different ratio to a fluoride ion versus an oxide ion.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

This is due the different charges of fluoride and oxide ions.

Explanation:

When calcium reacts it is oxidized to Ca²⁺. In the same way, fluoride ion is reduced to F⁻ and oxide ion to O²⁻.

When these ions are combined, the molecule must be neutral. That means 2 ions of F⁻ are necessaries and just 1 O²⁻ ion will reacts producing:

CaF₂ and CaO.

The different charges of these ions is the reason why calcium will combine in different ratios.
