Answer:

1. Iron(iii) hydroxide

2. It is a base

Explanation:

To determine the name of the compound, we must find the oxidation number Fe in the compound since the oxidation number of O is —2 in all its compound except for peroxide where it —1 and the oxidation number of Hydrogen is always +1 in all its compounds except for hydrides where it is —1. The oxidation number of Fe can calculated as follows:

Fe(OH)3 = 0

O = —2

H = +1

Fe =?

Fe + 3( —2 + 1) = 0

Fe + 3(—1) = 0

Fe —3 = 0

Fe = 3

The oxidation number of Fe in Fe(OH)3 is 3.

Therefore, the name of Fe(OH)3 is Iron(iii) hydroxide

Fe(OH)3 is a base since it contains the OH group

Sort these species into isoelectronic groups. It doesn\'t matter which group goes in which box, so long as the correct species a
OleMash [197]

Answer : The isoelectronic groups are:

He,Be^{2+},Li^{+}

N^{3-},Mg^{2+}

S^{2-},Ti^{4+},K^{+}

Explanation :

Isoelectronic : It is defined as the compound or molecule having the same number of electrons and the same number of electronic structure.

  • The element is helium. The number of electrons are 2.
  • The element is beryllium. The number of electrons are 4. The number of electrons in Be^{2+} = 4 - 2 = 2
  • The element is lithium. The number of electrons are 3. The number of electrons in Li^{+} = 3 - 1 = 2
  • The element is nitrogen. The number of electrons are 7. The number of electrons in N^{3-} = 7 + 3 = 10
  • The element is neon. The number of electrons are 10.
  • The element is sulfur. The number of electrons are 16. The number of electrons in S^{2-} = 16 + 2 = 18
  • The element is magnesium. The number of electrons are 12. The number of electrons in Mg^{2+} = 12 - 2 = 10
  • The element is titanium. The number of electrons are 22. The number of electrons in Ti^{4+} = 22 - 4 = 18
  • The element is potassium. The number of electrons are 19. The number of electrons in K^{+} = 19 - 1 = 18

The isoelectronic groups are:

He,Be^{2+},Li^{+}

N^{3-},Mg^{2+}

S^{2-},Ti^{4+},K^{+}

Explain the difference between personal opinion/interpretation and verified observations
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Personal opinion/interpretation are usually firsthand explanation to a phenomenon or problem set. They are usually drawn from logical reasoning and deduction about some event. Most times, they are non-scientific in nature in that they are non-methodical and do not rely on the critical thinking precepts scientific studies are hinged on.

Verified observations are usually drawn from carefully planned experiments. From the results of the experiment, critical decisions can be made.

Write the complete symbol, including mass number and atomic number, for each atom.
Reil [10]

Answer:

a) 58Ni

b) 43Ti

c) 34P

d) 18O

e) 58Ni

f) 43Ti

g)34P

h) 18O

i) 54Cr

Explanation:

<em>a) contains 28 protons and 30 neutrons:</em>

An atom with 28 protons and 30 neutrons has an atomic number of 28 and a mass number of (30+28) = 58.

The atom with atomic number 28 is Ni.

<em>b) contains 22 protons and 21 neutrons:</em>

An atom containing 22 protons and 21 neutrons has an atomic number of 22 and an atomic mass of (22+21) = 43

The atom with atomic number 22 is Titanium (Ti).

This is the 43Ti isotope of titanium

<em>c)  contains 15 electrons and 19 neutrons</em>

An atom with 15 electrons would have the same amount of , 15 protons (considering it to be neutral) and has 19 neutrons.

Thus, the atomic number of the atom would be 15 and the mass number would be (15+19) = 34

The atom with atomic number 15 is phosphorus (P).

This is the 34P isotope of phosphorus

<em>d) an oxygen atom with 10 neutrons:</em>

Oxygen has an atomic number of 8, thus there are 8 protons in an atom of oxygen.

The mass number of the oxygen atom with 10 neutrons would be (8+10) = 18

This is 18O - isotope.

<em>e) contains 28 protons and 30 neutrons:</em>

An atom with 28 protons and 30 neutrons has an atomic number of 28 and a mass number of (30+28) = 58.

The atom with atomic number 28 is Ni.

<em>f) contains 22 protons and 21 neutrons:</em>

An atom containing 22 protons and 21 neutrons has an atomic number of 22 and an atomic mass of (22+21) = 43

The atom with atomic number 22 is Titanium (Ti).

This is the 43Ti isotope of titanium

<em>g) contains 15 electrons and 19 neutrons:</em>

An atom with 15 electrons would have the same amount of , 15 protons (considering it to be neutral) and has 19 neutrons.

Thus, the atomic number of the atom would be 15 and the mass number would be (15+19) = 34

The atom with atomic number 15 is phosphorus (P).

This is the 34P isotope of phosphorus

<em>h) an oxygen atom with 10 neutrons:</em>

Oxygen has an atomic number of 8, thus there are 8 protons in an atom of oxygen.

The mass number of the oxygen atom with 10 neutrons would be (8+10) = 18

This is 18O - isotope.

<em>i) The atomic number of Cr is 24 </em>

The mass number is given to be 54.

This is the 54Cr isotope and has 24 protons and 30 neutrons
