Hello!
When finding the chemical formula of a compound, we will need to find the charges of each element/bond.
Looking at our period table, sodium has a +1 charge, written as Na 1+, and sulfate has a charge of -2, and it is written as SO4 2-.
Now, we need to make the charges equivalent. To do this, we need to "criss-cross" the charges. This means that sodium will need to additional atoms to make the charges equal, and sulfate will need one.
Therefore, the chemical formula for sodium sulfate is: Na2SO4.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The molecule with the strongest intramolecular bond is HF. Hydrogen fluoride is the answer due to the strong and highly electronegative nature of Fluorine.
- Fluorine is the most electronegative element in nature.
- When it combines with other substances, due to its electronegative property, it draws most of the electrons closest to itself in the bond.
- This tendency and ability makes the shared electrons closer the fluorine in the bond.
- The strong polarization that ensues confers a very strong covalent bond pair on the bond formed.
Answer: 1.9 x 10²⁴ molecules Na
Explanation: To solve for the molecules of Na, we will use the Avogadro's number.
3.2 moles Na x 6.022 x10²³ molecules Na/ 1 mole Nà
= 1.9 x 10²⁴ molecules Na
Here's the numbers
H = +1
Cl = -1
