Add electron dots and charges as necessary to show the reaction of calcium and oxygen to form an ionic compound.

1 answer:

7 0

The two atoms shown in the equation are CALCIUM and oxygen.

You start off with a neutral calcium atom with a shell of two electrons, a shell of 8 around that, a shell of 8 around that, and a shell containing 2...with no charge. 
20 protons + 20 electrons. 

You also have an oxygen atom with a shell of 2, and a shell of 6...with no charge. 
8 protons + 8 electrons. 

Each ionizes to form a calcium ion with 2 electrons removed (from the outer shell), leaving a +2 charge (20 protons, 18 electrons)... 
and an oxygen ion with 2 electrons added (to the outer shell), leaving a -2 charge (8 protons, 10 electrons). 

Their electrostatic attraction causes them to come together to form an ionic compound of CaO in a crystal lattice.

Explanation:

From the periodic table, the element designated as Sn is tin. Sn is derieved from a latin name of the metal called Stanum

Selenium Se is a group 6 element. It belongs to the same group with oxygen, sulfur and tellurium. This substance has an atomic weight of 78.96g/mol

Oxygen is a group 6 element with an atomic mass of 16. The atomic mass is the number of protons in the nucleus of this atom.

iragen [17]

Answer:

The answer is "Option B"

Explanation:

From the query, the following knowledge is derived:

Yield in percentage = 47%

Performance of theory = 4860 g

Actual yield Rate =?

The percentage return is defined simply by the ratio between both the real return as well as the conceptual return multiplied by the 100. It's also represented as numerically:

$Rate = \frac{Existing \ Rate} {Theoretical \ Rate} \times 100$

Now We can obtain the percent yield as followed using the above formula:

$\text{Yield in percentage}= \frac{Actual \ yield \ Rate} {Theorical \ Rate} \times 100$

$47\% = \frac{Actual \ yield \ Rate}{4860}$

The value of the Actual yield Rate = $47\% \times 4860$

$= \frac{47}{100} \times 4860 \\\\ = 2284.2 g$

The Actual yield Rate= 2284.2 g.
