<h2>In the name, iron(III) oxide, the (III) represents: D) the electrical charge of iron</h2><h2>Explanation:</h2>

To attain stability the chemical bond is formed .

Chemical bond

It is a kind of linkage that binds one atom with the other .

The atoms do so in order to attain stable noble gas configuration .

To form chemical bond they either:

Loose electrons : when atoms loose electrons they acquire positive charge which is equal to the number of electrons lost .

Gain electrons: After gaining electrons they acquire negative charge which is equal to the number of electrons gained by an atom.

share electrons : With sharing no charges are develop .

<em>In the above asked question when iron combines with oxygen it forms iron oxide : where iron looses 3 electrons and oxygen gains 2 electrons .That is the reason ,III here represents the electrical charge of iron</em>

you find that 7.36g of a compound has decomposed to give 6.93g of oxygen. the only other element in the compound is hydrogen. if

slavikrds [6]

First solve the moles of oxgen present in the compound

mol O = 6.93 g O ( 1 mol O / 16 g O )
mol O = 0.43 mol H

then solve the moles of hydrogen present
mol H = ( 7.36 - 6.93) g H ( 1 mol H / 1 g H)
mol H = 0.43 mol H
so the O and H are in the same mole content so the molecular formula would be OH, but the molar mass will not satisfy. so the answer would be
H2O2

Which component is missing from the process of photosynthesis? Carbon Dioxide + Water + _________ → Glucose + Oxygen Group of an

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Sunlight

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process where by plants manufacture their own food through conversion of carbon(iv)oxide and water in presence to sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen as by product.

The reaction is photo-catalyzed and would only take place in the presence of sunlight.

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + sunlight → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Find [cu2+] in a solution saturated with cu4(oh)6(so4) if [oh − ] is fixed at 2.3 ✕ 10−6 m. note that cu4(oh)6(so4) gives 1 mol

<span>

</span> $Cu_4(OH)_6(SO_4)$
<span>
You have OH- conc = </span>2.3 ✕ 10−6 m
From the formula, you can observe the ratio of Cu2+ to OH- is 4 : 6 = 2:3

So, for 2.3 ✕ 10−6 m OH-
[Cu2+] = $\frac{2}{3} \times 2.3 \times 10^{-6}$

$= 1.53 \times 10^{-6}
