What is the ionic compound of Na^+ and CO3^2-

Chemistry

maksim [4K]3 years ago

To find the chemical formula of an ionic compound, the first step is to find the charge of the 2 ions. As given already, the charge of sodium ion is 1+, and carbonate ion has a charge of 2-. We can picture it like that: Sodium ion loses 1 electron and carbonate ion gains 2.

The next step is to find how the 2 ions can lose and gain electrons equally. In this case, since each Na ion only loses 1 electron, it cannot satisfy the need of one carbonate ion, since they need 2, not 1. Therefore, 2 Na ions can cover the need of one carbonate ion. So, the ratio of Na to CO3 ion should be 2:1.

Now just combine the 2 ions, positive one at the front, which makes it NaCO3, make sure you do not add the charge and notice that CO3 is a molecule itself so do not remove the 3. Now because the ratio is 2:1, so the final formula is Na2CO3, no need to add 1 if the ratio is 1.

Your answer should be Na2CO3.

What energy sources boil the water in geothermal energy
GREYUIT [131]
The steam rotates a turbine that activates a generator, which produces electricity. Many power plants still use fossil fuels to boil water for steam. Geothermal power plants, however, use steam produced from reservoirs of hot water found a couple of miles or more below the Earth's surface.

The absorbance (????)(A) of a solution is defined as ????=log10(????0????) A=log10⁡(I0I) where ????0I0 is the incident‑light int
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The absorbance of the myoglobin solution across a 1 cm path is 0.84.

Explanation:

Beer-Lambert's law :

Formula used :

A=\epsilon \times c\times l

A=\log \frac{I_o}{I}

\log \frac{I_o}{I}=\epsilon \times c\times l

where,

A = absorbance of solution

c = concentration of solution

\epsilon = Molar absorption coefficient

l = path length

I_o = incident light

I = transmitted light

Given :

l = 1 cm, c = 1 mg/mL ,\epsilon = 15,000 M^{-1}cm^{-1}

Molar mass of myoglobin = 17.8 kDa = 17.8 kg/mol=17800 g/mol

(1 Da = 1 g/mol)

c = 1 mg /mL = {1mg /mL}{\text{Molar mass of myoglobin}}

c = \frac{1 mg/mL}{ 17800 g/mol} = 5.6179\times 10^{-5} mol/L

1 mg = 0.001 g, 1 mL = 0.001 L

A= 15,000 M^{-1}cm^{-1}\times 5.6179\times 10^{-5} mol/L\times 1 cm

A=0.8426 \approx 0.84

The absorbance of the myoglobin solution across a 1 cm path is 0.84.

Choose the correct statement regarding the behavior of water.Group of answer choicesThe heat capacity of liquid water is greater
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The water phase with the smallest temperature increase when adding 10 kcal of heat is solid ice.

Explanation:

The rest of the statements are incorrect. The density of ice is lower than the density of water. The heat capacity of solid ice is greater almost twice the heat capacity of the liquid water. The heat capacity of vapors is less than heat capacity of liquid.
