Answer:
The high melting point is also consistent with its description as an ionic solid. In the crystal, each S2− ion is surrounded by an octahedron of six Ca2+ ions, and complementarity, each Ca2+ ion surrounded by six S2− ions.
Explanation:
You can use the periodic table to predict whether an atom will form an anion or a cation, and you can often predict the charge of the resulting ion. Atoms of many main-group metals lose enough electrons to leave them with the same number of electrons as an atom of the preceding noble gas. To illustrate, an atom of an alkali metal (group 1) loses one electron and forms a cation with a 1+ charge; an alkaline earth metal (group 2) loses two electrons and forms a cation with a 2+ charge, and so on. For example, a neutral calcium atom, with 20 protons and 20 electrons, readily loses two electrons. This results in a cation with 20 protons, 18 electrons, and a 2+ charge. It has the same number of electrons as atoms of the preceding noble gas, argon, and is symbolized Ca2+. The name of a metal ion is the same as the name of the metal atom from which it forms, so Ca2+ is called a calcium ion.
When atoms of nonmetal elements form ions, they generally gain enough electrons to give them the same number of electrons as an atom of the next noble gas in the periodic table. Atoms of group 17 gain one electron and form anions with a 1− charge; atoms of group 16 gain two electrons and form ions with a 2− charge, and so on. For example, the neutral bromine atom, with 35 protons and 35 electrons, can gain one electron to provide it with 36 electrons. This results in an anion with 35 protons, 36 electrons, and a 1− charge. It has the same number of electrons as atoms of the next noble gas, krypton, and is symbolized Br−. (A discussion of the theory supporting the favored status of noble gas electron numbers reflected in these predictive rules for ion formation is provided in a later chapter of this text.)
PV / T = P'V' / T'
V = V'
P / T = P' / T'
P = 630 mmHg
T = 100 K
P' = 1760 mmHg
T' = ?
630 / 100 = 1760 / T'
T' = 1760 / 6,3
T' = 279,36 K
T' ≈ 280 K
Molarity = Moles / Liters! So in this instance, if you have 0.45 moles of NaCl, and we convert 300.0 mL to 0.3 L, we would plug in M = 0.45/0.3. The answer would be 1.5 M NaCl!
<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option B.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Molar mass is defined as the mass (in grams) of 1 mole of a substance. It is expressed in grams per mole.
Phosphorous is the 15th element in the periodic table, which belongs to Group 15 and Period 3. The molar mass of phosphorus element is 30.97 g/mol.
Hence, the correct answer is Option B.
The mass in a chemical reaction remains (mostly) the same.
(except for radiation/nuclear fission, in which mass gets converted into energy)
