Answer:

Explanation:

The dichromate ion is the part of the compound that looks like: Cr2O7.

Our current compound is Ag2CrO7. The “2” on Ag indicates that there are two atoms of Ag in this compound, while the absence of a number on Cr2O7 indicates that there is only one atom of Cr2O7.

In order to maintain balance within the compound, the product of one of the ion’s charge with its atom amount must be equivalent to the product of the other ion’s charge with its atom amount. This is because the charges will ultimately add up to 0, which is the neutral substance we want.

Here, we know the “atom amount” of Ag is 2 and that its charge is 1+. So that’s 2 * 1 = 2. We also know that the “atom amount” of Cr2O7 is 1 and that its charge is x, for example. Then: x * 1 + 2 = 0. That means x = -2.

Thus, the charge on the dichromate ion is 2-.

Its been almost a year since i've been in chemistry, so sorry if its not right. Cs, Ba, Rb, Sr, Xe. I think that the levels of ionozation increase from the bottom left corner of the periodic table and increase as you go up and to the right

What volume of oxygen in liters at STP wpuld be required for the combustion of 17.0 grams PH3?

Lynna [10]

First, we need to state the chemical equation for the combustion of PH3

$4PH3\text{ + 8O2 }\to\text{ P4O10 }+6H2O$

And the mass of PH3 is 17.0 grams and we need to know the moles.

In the periodic table, the atomic mass of the P (phosphorus) is 31 and the atomic mass of the H (hydrogen) is 1.

So, you sum the mass of P to the mass of H multiplied by 3 and you obtain this:

$\text{mole}cu\text{lar weight of PH3=31}\cdot1+1\cdot3=34\text{ g PH3/mol}$

With this data, we can search the moles of PH3:

For the reaction below, determine the standard free energy change, δg o. cu(s) + sn2+(aq) → cu2+(aq) + sn(s) e o cell =–0.48 v v

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

92.6 kJ.

Explanation:

∵ ΔG°rxn = - nFE°cell,

Where, ΔG°rxn is the standard free energy change (J).

n is the no. of electrons in the reaction (n =2).

F is Faraday constant (C/mol) (F = 96500 C/mol).

E°cell is the standard cell potential (E°cell = - 0.48 V).

∴ ΔG°rxn = - nFE°cell = - (2)(96500 C/mol)(- 0.48 V) = 92640 J = 92.64 kJ.
