Minchanka [31]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer option is: the number in subscript.

When you are balancing any chemical equation, you must never touch or change the number in subscript of the molecule of a chemical or compound as it will upset the composition.

Rzqust [24]
If the mass of all of the products in a chemical reaction is equal to 100g then the mass of the reactants in that same reaction had to have had a mass of 100g this is due to the law of conservation of matter stating matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Bi2(CO3)3<br> Name of this compound
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The name of this compound is :

Bi2(CO3)3 = Bismuth Carbonate

Explanation:

The name of the compound is derived from the name of the elements present  in it.

The rule followed while naming the compound are:

1. The first element (always the cation) is named as such .

2. The second element (The anion) end with "-ate ,  -ide ," etc

3. NO prefix is added while naming the first element.

For example : Bi2 can't be named as Dibismuth

Na2 = Can't be named as disodium

Hence the compound :

Bi2(CO3)3 contain two element : Bi and CO3. Here , Bi = cation (named as such) and CO3 = anion (named according to rules)

Bi = Bismuth

CO3 = carbonate

Bi2(CO3)3 = Bismuth Carbonate

The molecular mass of this compound is :

Molecular mass = 2 (mass of Bi) + 3(mass of C) + 6(mass of O)

= 2 (208.98)+3(12.01)+6(15.99)

= 597.987 u

How many particles are in 47.7 g of Magnesium? (Round the average
Lynna [10]

Answer:

1.18 × 10²⁴ particles Mg

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis
  • Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

47.7 g Mg

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of Mg - 24.31 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

<u />47.7 \ g \ Mg(\frac{1 \ mol \ Mg}{24.31 \ g \ Mg} )(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ particles \ Mg}{1 \ mol \ Mg} ) = 1.18161 × 10²⁴ particles Mg

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>

1.18161 × 10²⁴ particles Mg ≈ 1.18 × 10²⁴ particles Mg
