How do u get the formulae for sodium oxide​

Chemistry
2 answers:
Maslowich3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The Chemical formula of sodium is Na.

The Chemical formula of oxide is O.

Explanation:

Therefore we know that the term 'valency' is called as the combining capacity of an atom of an element.

So by taking the valency of Sodium and  Oxide, we get  

Sodium with valency '1' and Oxide with valency '2'.

Na         O

1             2

When you cross over you get 'Na2O' as the formula for sodium oxide.

Hope this is helpful for you!

Answer:

The formula is gotten by exchange of valency between Na and O

Explanation:

To obtain the formula of a compound form by two elements, we must bear in mind their valency

Sodium(Na) has 1 valency

Oxygen(O) has 2 valency

For Na and O to form compound, they will exchange their valency i.e Na will give O is 1 valency and O will give Na it's 2 valency as shown below

Na + O —> Na2O

When iron reacts with oxygen, it forms iron oxide, or rust.
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Mass of iron oxide: 79.85 g  

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron = 112 g

Mass of O₂ = 24 g

Mass of iron oxide formed = ?

Solution:

4Fe + 3O₂         →       2Fe₂O₃

Number of moles of Fe:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 112 g/ 55.85 g/mol

Number of moles =  2 mol

Number of moles of O₂:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 24 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles =  0.75 mol

Now we will compare the moles of oxygen and iron with iron oxide.

                 Fe           :             Fe₂O₃

                 4             :                2

                 2             :                2/4×2 =  1

                O₂            :             Fe₂O₃

                 3             :                2

                 0.75       :                2/3×0.75 =  0.5

The number of moles of iron oxide formed by oxygen are less thus it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of iron oxide:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.5 mol  × 159.69 g/mol

Mass = 79.85 g

Select the true statement:
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Bonds are broken and new bonds are formed during chemical reactions only.

Explanation:

  • A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is.
  • In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.
  • Physical changes can be reversed, chemical changes cannot be reversed with the substance changed back without extraordinary means, if at all. For example, a cup of water can be frozen when cooled and then can be returned to a liquid form when heated.

So, the right choice is:

Bonds are broken and new bonds are formed during chemical reactions only.
