Answer:

XPO4

Explanation:

First off, what is the chemical formula of the phosphate ion?

The formula of a phosphate ion is given as; (PO4)3−

The phosphate ion is a polyatomic ion with the empirical formula (PO4)3−

and a molar mass of 94.97 g/mol. It consists of one central phosphorus atom surrounded by four oxygen atoms in a tetrahedral arrangement. The phosphate ion carries a −3 formal charge.

With a formal charge of -3, it means the ion would have to gain 3 electrons when entering into a bond in order for it to be neutral.

X on the other hand as an electronic configuration of 2-8-3. The electron configuration reveals X has a valency (Number of electrons in the outermost electron shell) of 3. As such, X is a group 3 element (Aluminium to be much precise).

With valency of 3 it means X is willing and able to lose its 3 electrons to enter into a bond.

This leads to the formular between X and the phosphate ion to be X^{3}(PO4)^{-3}. XPO4

The formal charges balances each other (3 - 3 = 0). This means the total number of electrons lost by X is the total number of electrons received by the phosphate ion.

Answer:Ionic compounds form when positive and negative ions share electrons and form an ionic bond. ... The positive ion, called a cation, is listed first in an ionic compound formula, followed by the negative ion, called an anion. A balanced formula has a neutral electrical charge or net charge of zero.

What are the characteristics of the two systems of government in this region? Explain in detail.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

space agency of the Republic of India, headquartered in Bengaluru. It operates under Department of Space (DoS) which is directly overseen by the prime minister of India while chairman of ISRO acts as executive of DoS as well. ISRO is the primary agency in India to perform tasks related to space based applications, space exploration and development of related technologies.[6] It is one of six government space agencies in the world which possess full launch capabilities, deploy cryogenic engines, launch extraterrestrial missions and operate large fleets of artificial satellites.[7][b]

The Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) was established by Jawaharlal Nehru[8] under the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) in 1962, with the urging of scientist Vikram Sarabhai recognising the need in space research. INCOSPAR grew and became ISRO in 1969,[9] also under the DAE.[10][11] In 1972, the Government of India had set up a Space Commission and the Department of Space (DOS),[12] bringing ISRO under the DOS. The establishment of ISRO thus institutionalised space research activities in India.[13] It is managed by the DOS, which reports to the Prime Minister of India.[14]

ISRO built India's first satellite, Aryabhata, which was launched by the Soviet Union on 19 April 1975.[15] It was named after the mathematician Aryabhata. In 1980, Rohini became the first satellite to be placed in orbit by an Indian-made launch vehicle, SLV-3. ISRO subsequently developed two other rockets: the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) for launching satellites into polar orbits and the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) for placing satellites into geostationary orbits. These rockets have launched numerous communications satellites and Earth observation satellites. Satellite navigation systems like GAGAN and IRNSS have been deployed. In January 2014, ISRO used an indigenous cryogenic engine CE-7.5 in a GSLV-D5 launch of the GSAT-14.[16][17]

ISRO sent a lunar orbiter, Chandrayaan-1, on 22 October 2008, which discovered lunar water in the form of ice,[18] and the Mars Orbiter Mission, on 5 November 2013, which entered Mars orbit on 24 September 2014, making India the first nation to succeed on its maiden attempt to Mars, as well as the first space agency in Asia to reach Mars orbit.[19] On 18 June 2016, ISRO launched twenty satellites in a single vehicle,[20] and on 15 February 2017, ISRO launched one hundred and four satellites in a single rocket (PSLV-C37), a world record.[21][22] ISRO launched its heaviest rocket, Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-Mark III (GSLV-Mk III), on 5 June 2017 and placed a communications satellite GSAT-19 in orbit. With this launch, ISRO became capable of launching 4-tonne heavy satellites into GTO. On 22 July 2019, ISRO launched its second lunar mission Chandrayaan-2 to study the lunar geology and the distribution of lunar water.

Future plans include development of the Unified Launch Vehicle, Small Satellite Launch Vehicle, development of a reusable launch vehicle, human spaceflight, a space station, interplanetary probes, and a solar spacecraft mission.

Answer:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles and weighs equal to its molecular mass.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given molecules}}{\text {Avogadros number}}

a. moles in 14.08 g of C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} = \frac{14.08g}{342.3g/mol}=0.04113moles

molecules in 14.08 g of C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} = 0.04113\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=0.2477\times 10^{23}

b. moles in 17.75 g of NaCl = \frac{17.75g}{58.5g/mol}=0.3034moles

molecules in 17.75 g of NaCl = 0.3034\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=1.827\times 10^{23}

formula units 17.75 g of NaCl = 0.3034\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=1.827\times 10^{23}

c. moles in 20.06 g of  CuSO_4.5H_2O= \frac{20.06g}{249.68g/mol}=0.08034moles

formula units in 20.06 g of  CuSO_4.5H_2O= 0.08034\times 6.023\times 10^{23}=0.4839\times 10^{23}
