Answer:
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.
Explanation:
Given data:
Percentage of calcium =29.44%
Percentage of sulfur = 23.55%
Percentage of oxygen = 47.01%
Empirical formula = ?
Solution:
Number of gram atoms of Ca = 29.44 / 40 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of S = 23.55 / 32 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of O = 47.01 / 16 = 3
Atomic ratio:
Ca : S : O
0.74/0.74 : 0.74/0.74 : 3/0.74
1 : 1 : 4
Ca : S : O = 1 : 1 : 4
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.
W=Fd
Work is equal to the force multiplied by the distance travelled.
Aluminum atomic number 13 becomes Neon with an atomic number of 10 when it loses three valence electrons.
Answer:
Only the number of neutrons change.
Answer:
d. The gold(III) ion is most easily reduced.
Explanation:
The standard reduction potentials are
Au³⁺ + 3e⁻ ⟶ Au; 1.50 V
Hg²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Hg; 0.85 V
Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Zn; -0.76 V
Na⁺ + e⁻ ⟶ Na; -2.71 V
A <em>more positive voltage</em> means that there is a <em>stronger driving force</em> for the reaction.
Thus, Au³⁺ is the best acceptor of electrons.
Reduction Is Gain of electrons and, Au³⁺ is gaining electrons, so
Au³⁺ is most easily reduced.
