Why are there 2 chloride ions for every 1 calcium in calcium chloride

Chemistry

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Calcium is divalent. This means that it donates two electrons during ionic bond formation. Since chlorine atom can only accept one electron during ionic bond formation, two chlorine atoms must accept the two electrons donated by calcium.

For this purpose, each time CaCl2 is formed, there must be two chlorine atoms for each calcium atom.

Four grams of hydrogen react completely with 32 grams of oxygen. Based on the law of conservation of mass how many grams of wate
neonofarm [45]

Se producirán 36 gramos de agua

Explicación: Ya que en una reacción química no puede descubrir ningún cambio en masa total de las sustancias que en ella intervienen, pues en una reacción química ni se gana ni se pierde masa.

Metallic elements can be recovered from ores that are oxides, carbonates, halides, or sulfides. Give an example of each type.
vredina [299]

Metallic elements which can be recovered from ores that are oxides, carbonates, halides, or sulfides are iron, zinc, silver and lead respectively.

Ores which is deposited in earth's crust which contain minerals and metals. Metals can be obtained economically and sold commercially.

<h3>How metals obtained from sulphide or carbonate ore? </h3>

As we get to know that it is easy to obtain metals from their oxides. So, firstly ores which is found in the form of carbonates and sulphide are converted into their oxides by using the process of calcination and roasting.

The metals which is in the middle of the activity series are moderately reactive. These metals are found in the crust of the earth is mainly found as oxides, sulphides, or carbonates.

A metal which can occur in the form of sulphide ore is lead.

A metal which can occur in the form of oxide ore is iron.

A metal which can occur in the form of carbonate ore is zinc.

A metal which can occur in the form of halides ore is silver.

Thus, we concluded that the metallic elements which can be recovered from ores that are oxides, carbonates, halides, or sulfides are iron, zinc, silver and lead respectively.

HELP PLEASE! <br> Picture for question provided
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

The first one is CrO.  The Chromium has the same charge as the oxygen so mol numbers are dropped.

The Second one is CrO2 The two oxygens have a charge of 2(-2) = -4. To balance this, the Chromium must have a charge of +4 Cr(Iv)O2

The third one is can be set up like this

Cr + 3(-2) = 0

Cr - 6 = 0

Cr = 6

Therefore the formula is Cr(vi)O3

The last one is a bit tricky. Follow this carefully. There are 2 Crs and 3Os.

The formula looks like this

2Cr + 3(-2) = 0

2Cr - 6 = 0

2Cr = 6

Cr = 3

The formula is Cr(iii)2 O3
