Answer:

The correct answer is option d. a polyatomic anion.

Explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

The ending "ate" or "ite" indicates that there is a negative polyatomic ion (polyatomic anion). This means that the termination of the name will indicate the valence number of the element, if the number used is the highest or the lowest.

An example is:

CO-3: is the carbonate ion

SO-4: is the sulfate ion

We conclude that the correct answer is option d. a polyatomic anion.

If it requires 48.3 milliliters of 0.55 molar nitric acid to neutralize 15.0 milliliters of barium hydroxide, solve for the mola
Gemiola [76]
First you have to moles so multiply .0483L X .55M= .026565 Multiply moles by mole ratio which is 1/2, so the moles becomes .013283 now molarity=moles/volume; divide .013283/.015L=.885533M significant figures and you final answer is 0.89M
