Name the following ionic compounds, keeping in mind that a transition metal cation must include its charge. ____________________
Lilit [14]

Answer :

(a) The name for TiO_2 is titanium(IV) oxide.

(b) The name for BaCl_2 is barium chloride.

(c) The name for CuCl_3 is copper(III) chloride.

(d) The name for KI is potassium iodide.

(e) The name for SrCl_2 is strontium chloride.

(f) The name for CuBr_2 is copper(II) bromide.

Explanation :

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

Ionic compound are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive ion is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

3. In case of transition metals, the oxidation state are written in roman numerals in bracket in-front of positive ions.

(a) TiO_2

TiO_2 is an ionic compound because titanium element is a metal and oxygen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on tin is (+4) and the the charge on oxygen is (-2). Thus, the name for TiO_2 is titanium(IV) oxide.

(b) BaCl_2

BaCl_2 is an ionic compound because barium element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on barium is (+2) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for BaCl_2 is barium chloride.

(c) CuCl_3

CuCl_3 is an ionic compound because copper element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on copper is (+3) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for CuCl_3 is copper(III) chloride.

(d) KI

KI is an ionic compound because potassium element is a metal and iodine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on potassium is (+1) and the the charge on iodine is (-1). Thus, the name for KI is potassium iodide.

(e) SrCl_2

SrCl_2 is an ionic compound because strontium element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on strontium is (+2) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for SrCl_2 is strontium chloride.

(f) CuBr_2

CuBr_2 is an ionic compound because copper element is a metal and bromine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on copper is (+2) and the the charge on bromine is (-1). Thus, the name for CuBr_2 is copper(II) bromide.

"How much NH4Cl, when present in 2.00 liters of 0.200 M ammonia, will give a solution with pH = 8.20? For NH3, Kb = 1.8 x 10-5"
Andru [333]

Answer:

245.66g of NH₄Cl is the mass we need to add to obtain the desire pH

Explanation:

The mixture of NH3/NH4Cl produce a buffer. We can find the pH of a buffer using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [A⁻] is the molar concentration of the base, NH₃, and [HA] molar concentration of the acid, NH₄⁺. This molar concentration can be taken as the moles of each chemical</em>

<em />

First, we need to find pKa of NH₃ using Kb. Then, the moles of NH₃ and finally replace these values in H-H equation to solve moles of NH₄Cl we need to obtain the desire pH.

  • <em>pKa NH₃/NH₄⁺</em>

pKb = - log Kb

pKb = -log 1.8x10⁻⁵ = <em>4.74</em>

pKa = 14 - pKb

pKa = 14 - 4.74

pKa = 9.26

  • <em>Moles NH₃</em>

<em>2.00L ₓ (0.200mol NH₃ / L) = 0.400 moles NH₃</em>

  • <em>H-H equation:</em>

pH = pKa + log [NH₃] / [NH₄Cl]

8.20 = 9.26 + log [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

-1.06 =  log [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

0.0087 =  [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

[NH₄Cl] = 0.400 moles / 0.0087

[NH₄Cl] = 4.59 moles of NH₄Cl we need to add to original solution to obtain a pH of 8.20. In grams (Using molar mass NH₄Cl=53.491g/mol):

4.59 moles NH₄Cl ₓ (53.491g / mol) =

<h3>245.66g of NH₄Cl is the mass we need to add to obtain the desire pH</h3>
