How many electrons each atom gives or takes in KBr

What is the mathematical equation used when solving calorimetry problems? What does each variable in the equation represent?

liubo4ka [24]

Answer : The mathematical equation used when solving calorimetry problems is:

$q=m\times c\times \Delta T}$

Explanation :

Calorimetry : It is determining the changes in the energy of a system by measuring the heat transferred with surroundings.

Formula used :

$q=m\times c\times \Delta T}$

where,

c = specific heat capacity of calorimeter

m = mass of a substance

q = heat required

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature of substance

What are the groups on the periodic table let us predict how elements will react

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The vertical columns are called groups.

Explanation:

Periodic table consist of vertical columns and horizontal rows.

Vertical columns are called groups while horizontal rows are called periods.

There are seven periods and 18 groups in periodic table.

The elements in same group have similar properties and can react in a similar way.

The elements in same group have same number of valance electrons that's why their reactivity is same.

Consider the example of alkaline earth metals. They are present in group two and have same number of valance electrons (two valance electrons).

They react with oxygen and form oxide.

2Ba + O₂ → 2BaO

2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO

2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO

this oxide form hydroxide when react with water,

BaO + H₂O → Ba(OH)₂

MgO + H₂O → Mg(OH)₂

CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂

With sulfur,

Mg + S → MgS

Ca + S → CaS

Ba + S → BaS

a compound has a percent compostion of carbon equal to 48.8383%, hydrogen equal to 8.1636%, and oxygen equal to 43.1981%. what i

Margarita [4]

Answer:

C₂H₃O

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Carbon (C) = 48.8383%

Hydrogen (H) = 8.1636%

Oxygen (O) = 43.1981%

Empirical formula =?

The empirical formula of the compound can be obtained as follow:

C = 48.8383%

H = 8.1636%

O = 43.1981%

Divide by their molar mass

C = 48.8383 / 12 = 4.07

H = 8.1636 / 1 = 8.1636

O = 43.1981 / 16 = 2.7

Divide by the smallest

C = 4.07 / 2.7 = 2

H = 8.1636 / 2.7 = 3

O = 2.7 /2.7 = 1

Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is C₂H₃O

Why do atoms combine in an ionic bond

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Ionic bonds are formed through the exchange of valence electrons between atoms, typically a metal and a nonmetal. The loss or gain of valence electrons allows ions to obey the octet rule and become more stable. Therefore, ions combine in ways that neutralize their charges.

Solid NaI is slowly added to a solution that is 0.0079 M Cu+ and 0.0087 M Ag+.Which compound will begin to precipitate first?NaI

NeTakaya

Answer :

AgI should precipitate first.

The concentration of $Ag^+$ when CuI just begins to precipitate is, $6.64\times 10^{-7}M$

Percent of $Ag^+$ remains is, 0.0076 %

Explanation :

$K_{sp}$ for CuI is $1\times 10^{-12}$

$K_{sp}$ for AgI is $8.3\times 10^{-17}$

As we know that these two salts would both dissociate in the same way. So, we can say that as the Ksp value of AgI has a smaller than CuI then AgI should precipitate first.

Now we have to calculate the concentration of iodide ion.

The solubility equilibrium reaction will be:

$CuI\rightleftharpoons Cu^++I^-$
