An ionic compound is composed of ionic bonds that are formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons acquires a positive charge (cation) while that which gains electrons acquires a negative charge.

In the case of sodium chloride; Sodium Na has 1 electron in its outer orbital while Chlorine Cl has 7 electrons. Thus, Cl requires 1 electron to complete its octet. This electron is donated by Na.

Thus, NaCl is essentially, Na⁺Cl⁻

Ans D) Chlorine becomes an anion by gaining an electron from sodium

How many atoms are in the formula (NH4)2CO3? Please help and provide explanation!
nevsk [136]

Answer:

28

Explanation:

28 is correct. (NH4)2 is equal to 10 atoms. (8 H and 2 N ) CO3 is equal to 4 atoms. (1 C and 3 O) That's 14 atoms. But it's two molecules of this. So you just multiply by the number of molecules (2), and you get 28.

Write 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation with 4 significant figures.
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The number 10,847,100 in Scientific Notation is 1.0847x10^{7}

Explanation:

Scientific notation is an easy form to write long numbers and it is commonly used in the scientific field. To write a long number in a shorter way it is necessary to 'move' the decimal point to the left the number of positions that are necessary until you get a unit. Then you write the number and multiplied it by 10 raised to the number of positions you moved the decimal point. In this case, it is necessary to move the decimal point 7 positions so, we multiply the number by 10 raised to 7.

1. Which of the following choices demonstrates the law of constant composition? (Slides 2 ‒ 3: Laws on Matter) (a) Nitrogen and
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

(b) When 20.0 g of nitrogen and 32.0 g of oxygen are combined and allowed to react in two separate experiments, both times the product isolated from reaction contains 14.0 g of nitrogen and 32.0 g of oxygen.

Explanation:

The law of definite proportion states that a gen chemical compound always contains its constituent elements in a fixed ratio by mass, independent on the method of preparation.

The molar mass of Nitrogen and Oxygen would always remain the same, allowing for exact reactant masses (or mole ratio) irrespective of the given amount of sample.
