P4O9 is an oxide of phosphorous

so it will named accordingly

There are four phosphorous atoms and nine oxygen atoms

four will be represented as "tetra"

Nine will represented as "non"

so the name of the compound will be

tetraphosphorous nonoxide

What occurs in dissociation

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:- B. Solvent molecules surround solute ions.

Explanations:- When an ionic solute that has positive and negative ions is dissolved in a solvent like water then the solute ions are surrounded by the water molecules in a way so that the highly electron negative oxygen atom of water is towards the positively charged ion of the solute and less electron negative which is hydrogen atom that has partial positive charge, surrounds the negatively charged ion of the solute.

Due to these forces made by the solvent molecules, the solute is broken into the ions and get dissolved in solvent.

2Na + I2 —> 2NaI

No. of mol of 4.0g I2 = 4/(35.5x2) = 0.0563

No. of mol of NaI = 2 x 0.0563 = 0.113

No. of molecules of NaI = 0.113 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 6.78 x 10^22

Answer:

1g Hydrogen

Explanation:

<h3>Getting to the equation:</h3>

Calcium in water reacts vigorously to give a cloudy white Precipitate (compound) called Calcium hydroxide alongwith the evolution of Hydrogen gas.

$\boxed{ \mathsf{Ca + H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2}}$

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Balancing the equation: </h3>

This reaction is not in it's balanced form! The number of atoms of Hydrogen on the left is 2 while that on the right is 4,I.e.,they're not equal.

Adding a 2 in front of H2O solves the problem by making the number of atoms of each element on both the sides equal.

$\mathsf{Ca +2 H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2}$

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Observations:</h3>

Looking into the equation more carefully, we see:

1 atom of Calcium reacts with 2 molecules of water to give 1 molecule of Calcium Hydroxide alongwith 1 molecule of Hydrogen gas.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Gram atomic and molecular masses </h3>

Mass of one atom of Calcium = it's gram atomic mass

= 40 g

Mass of one "molecule" of Hydrogen

= it's Gram molecular mass

= gram mass of one atom × number of atoms in one molecule

= 1 × 2

= 2 g

So,

according to our observation:

One atoms of Calcium gives one molecule of Hydrogen (during the particular reaction)

=> 40g of Calcium gives = 2g of Hydrogen

•°• 1 g of Calcium gives = $\frac{2}{40}$

= $\frac{1}{20}$ g Hydrogen

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Answer:</h3>

We're provided with 20g of Calcium,

=> 20g of Calcium gives = 20 × $\frac{1}{20}$ g H2

= 1 g H2

Hope this helps!
