How to find the valency of a polyatomic ion?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lemur [1.5K]3 years ago
3 0

The valencies of the constituent atoms are combined by the poly atomic ion, carbonate, has a formula of CO3 the valence state it is in of oxygen ions is -2 the periodic table group it’s in Group 16 the two to the left of Group 18, the noble gases: 16–18 = -2) and their are 3 oxygen atoms in the poly atomic ion, so the oxygen atoms contribute -6 to the valency of the poly atomic ion. The one carbon atom has a valency of 4+. The overall charge on the carbonate ion is -6 +4 = -2. So carbonate has a charge of -2.

How many liters of CO2 gas can be produced at 30.0 °C and 1.50 atm from the reaction of 5.00 mol of C3H8 and an excess of O2 acc
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

249 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

C₃H₈(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 3 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(g)

Step 2: Calculate the moles of CO₂ produced from 5.00 moles of C₃H₈

The molar ratio of C₃H₈ to CO₂ is 1:3. The moles of CO₂ produced are 3/1 × 5.00 mol = 15.0 mol

Step 3: Convert "30.0°C" to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15

K = 30.0°C + 273.15 = 303.2 K

Step 4: Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

V = n × R × T/P

V = 15.0 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 303.2 K/1.50 atm

V = 249 L

Rank the compounds in each set in order of increasing acid strength.
Viktor [21]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember the effect of an atom with high <u>electronegativity</u> as "Br". If the "Br" atom is closer to the carboxylic acid group (COOH) we will have an <u>inductive effect</u>. Due to the electronegativity of Br, the electrons of the C-H bond would be to the Br, then this bond would be <u>weaker</u> and the compound will be more acid (because is easier to produce the hydronium ion H^+).

With this in mind, for A in the last compound, we have <u>2 Br atoms</u> near to the acid carboxylic group, so, we will have a high inductive effect, then the C-H would be weaker and we will have <u>more acidity</u>. Then we will have the compound with only 1 Br atom and finally, the last compound would be the one without Br atoms.

In B, the difference between the molecules is the <u>position</u> of the "Br" atom in the molecule. If the Br atom is closer to the acid group we will have a <u>higher inductive effect</u> and more <u>acidity</u>.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

In the nuclear transmutation, 168O (?, α)137N, what is the bombarding particle? In the nuclear transmutation, O (?, )N, what is
xeze [42]

Answer:

The bombarding particle is a Proton

Explanation:

A Nuclear transmutation reaction occurs when radioactive element decay, usually converting them from one element/isotope into another element. Transmutation is the process which causes decay, generally, alpha or beta.

¹⁶₈O(P,alpha) ¹³₇N, can be written as

¹⁶₈O + x goes to ¹³₇N + ⁴₂He

Where x can be anything, balancing the equation in order to give us the correct amount of proton number and nucleus number

16 + x = 13 + 4

x = 17 – 16 = 1, Hence we can say that x = ¹₁P

<u>¹⁶₈O + ¹₁P goes to ¹³₇N + ⁴₂He</u>

Here we can clearly see the bombarding particle is ¹₁P (proton). The ejected particle being ⁴₂He which is also known as an alpha particle

An atom has 9 electrons and 9 protons at the start. If it loses 2 electrons, the net charge on the atom will be 8-2-2+8+. If the
Mrrafil [7]

Answer: 1) p⁺ = 22; number of protons.

e⁻ = 19 - 1 = 18; number of electrons.

Net charge is +4, because atom has 4 protons more than electrons.

Proton is a subatomic particle with a positive electric charge of +1e elementary charge.

2) p⁺ = 22; number of protons.

e⁻ = 19 + 3 = 22; number of electrons.

Net charge is 0 (neutral charge), because atom has same number of protons and electrons.

Hope this helps :)
