To balance chemical equations, you should just remember that the number of atoms of an element in the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of the same element in the product side. The order of the substances doesn't matter. What is important that the equation balances.
Explanation:
Lead(II) phosphate is an ionic compound with chemical formula Pb3(PO4)2. Lead(II) phosphate is a long-lived electronically neutral reagent chemical.[1] Despite limited tests on humans, it has been identified as a carcinogen based on tests on animals conducted by the EPA.[2] Lead(II) phosphate appears as hexagonal, colorless crystals or as a white powder. Lead(II) phosphate is insoluble in water and alcohol but soluble in Nitric acid (HNO3) and has fixed alkali hydroxides. When lead(II) phosphate is heated for decomposition it emits very toxic fumes containing Lead (Pb) and POx.[3]
Answer: The empirical formula is 
Explanation:
If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.
So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.
Mass of Br= 58.37 g
Mass of F = (100-58.37) = 41.63 g
Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.
Moles of Br=
Moles of F =
Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.
For Br = 
For F = 
The ratio of Br: F= 1 : 3
Hence the empirical formula is
Answer and Explanation:
Polar compounds are those that have an unequal sharing of electrons, causing one end to be more positively or negatively charged than the other end.
Ionic compounds are those that are made up of a positive ion and a negative ion. Clearly, we can see that if one ion is positive and the other is negative, then that would make one end of the compound more or less positively charged than the other end, which is exactly the definition of a polar compound.
That is why ionic compounds are always polar.
The correct answer is A
The octet rule state that all main group elements form bonds such that they achieve a noble gas configuration with eight valence electrons. In this case carbon has 4 electrons in its outermost shell and requires 4 more electrons to achieve an octet. Hydrogen is an exception to the octet rule and it only requires two electrons to achieve an octet. All the other options have C and H forming bonds that do not lead to a noble gas configuration.
