What is the net charge of the ionic compound calcium fluoride

Chemistry
1 answer:
yKpoI14uk [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  • <em>The net charge of the ionic compound calcium fluoride is </em><u><em>zero (0).</em></u>

<em>Explanation:</em>

<em>Ionic compounds,</em> such as covalent ones, have zero net charge; this is, they are neutral.

Substances with net positive charge are cations and substances with net negative charge are anions.

The charges in the <em>ionic compound calcium flouride</em> are distributed in this way:

  • Compound formula: CaF₂

  • Calcium charge: Ca²⁺: this is, each calcium ion has a 2 positive charge

  • Fluoride charge: F⁻: each fluoride ion has a 1 negative charge.

  • Then, the <em>net charge</em> is: 1 × (2+) + 2 × (1-) = +2 - 2 = 0.

So, a two positve charge, from one calcium ion, is equal to two negative charges, from two fluoride tions, yielding a <u>zero net charge</u>.

How to identify the number of protons neutrons and electrons and mass number?
jeka57 [31]
1. Look at the atomic number of the element(located in upper left corner of the element box).This number represent the number of  protons of the element.In same of the elements the number of electrons and protons are the same. in other (negative) you have to calculate
2. Look at the atomical mass( located underneath the element, which is a sum of neutrons and protons.Round the mass to the whole number and substract the atomic number. That will be number of neutrons.

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 25 g of HCl in 150 mL of solution??
Stels [109]
To find molarity 
1) number of mol of solute.
Solute is HCl.
M(HCl)= 1.0+35.5 =36.5 g/mol

25g *1 mol/36.5 g = 25/36.5 mol HCl

2) Molarity is number of mole of the solute in 1 L solution.
150 mL = 0.150 L

(25/36.5 mol HCl )/(0.150 L) = 25/(36.5*0.150) ≈ 4.57≈4.6 mol/L

How many grams are in 5.2 moles of Li2SO4
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

572 g

Explanation:

Molar mass is the mass of 1 mol of an element or compound

molar mass of Li₂SO₄ is the sum of the products of the molar masses of the elements by the number of atoms in the compound

molar masses of each element making up lithium sulphate

Li - 7 g/mol

S - 32 g/mol

O - 16 g/mol

molar mass of Li₂SO₄ - (7 g/mol x 2) + ( 32 g/mol x 1) + ( 16 g/mol x 4 )

molar mass = 110 g/mol

mass of 1 mol of Li₂SO₄ is 110 g

therefore mass of 5.2 mol of Li₂SO₄ is - 110 g/mol x 5.2 mol = 572 g

mass is 572 g
