Answer the questions about the characteristics of the elements in group 1 (the alkali metals). What happens when the elements in
irinina [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The elements in group form univalent positive ions and element in group 17 form univalent negative ions. Hence, when a group 1 element reacts with a group 17 element, a compound of the sort MX is formed. Hence, when a group 1 element reacts with bromine, a salt is formed with the general formula MBr.

Elements of group 1 are highly electro positive metals. They react with water to form the metal hydroxide and release hydrogen gas. Hence, when group 1 elements react with water, hydrogen gas is released.

A group 1 element forms a univalent positive ion while a group 16 element forms a divalent negative ion. Hence, when a groups 1 element reacts with oxygen, the compound formed must have the general formula M2O.

The reactivity of group 1 metal increases down the group hence Cs is the most reactive group 1 element.

Lithium displays a slightly different chemistry from other group 1 elements because of its small size.

What is the molar mass of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) ?
agasfer [191]

Answer: 15.1 grams

Given reaction:

Na2CO3 + Ca(OH)2 → 2NaOH + CaCO3

Mass of Na2CO3 = 20.0 g

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 105.985 g/mol

# moles of Na2CO3 = 20/105.985 = 0.1887 moles

Based on the reaction stoichiometry: 1 mole of Na2CO3 produces 2 moles of NaOH

# moles of NaOH produced = 0.1887*2 = 0.3774 moles

Molar mass of NaOH = 22.989 + 15.999 + 1.008 = 39.996 g/mol

Mass of NaOH produced = 0.3774*39.996 = 15.09 grams

What is the highest energy to which doubly ionized helium atoms (alpha particles) can be accelerated in a DC accelerator with 3
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Highest energy will be equal to 9.6\times 10^{-13}J

Explanation:

Charged on doubly ionized helium atom q=2e=2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}C=3.2\times 10^{-19}C

It is accelerated with maximum voltage of 3 MV

So voltage V=3\times 10^6volt

Now energy is given by E=qV=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 3\times 10^6=9.6\times 10^{-13}J

So highest energy will be equal to 9.6\times 10^{-13}J

Help please I need the answer
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

                    Polyatomic Ionic Compound

Explanation:

                     In given statement the compound given is called as Sodium oleate this means that when Oleic acid is treated with NaOH then it forms.

                     In chemistry there are few species which are involved in the formation of compounds.

  (i) Atoms:

                  It is very common that atoms of different elements combine to form compound through covalent bond. For example, H₂, O₂, N₂, F₂ e.t.c.

   (i) Ions:

                  Other than covalent compounds we have ionic compounds. Ionic compounds are made up of ions. These ions forming the ionic compounds can be monatomic like Na⁺, Br⁻, Mg²⁺, Al³⁺, N⁻³ or they can be polyatomic like CO₃²⁻, SO₄²⁻, NH₄⁺, PO₄³⁻ e.t.c.

    (iii) Polyatomic Ions:

                                     In polyatomic ions we find a charge on a molecule which contains two or more atoms bonded covalently. Hence, in given compound we have a long chain of molecule containing a negative charge neutralized by opposite +ve charged sodium ion. Hence, Sodium oleate is a polyatomic ionic compound.
