If the ligand has a negative charge at a particular location, what would happen if you tried to put electrons from the metal nea

Answer:

The two would end up repelling each other very strongly and more energy would ultimately be required to keep the metal-ligand system in place

Explanation:

A complex is made up a central metal atom or ion and ligands. Ligands are lewis bases and they possess lone pairs of electrons. A complex is formed when electrons are donated from ligand species to metals.

However, if the ligand has a negative charge at a particular location and we try to put electrons from the metal near the electrons from the ligand, the two would end up repelling each other very strongly and more energy would ultimately be required to keep the metal-ligand system in place.

A compound has the following percentages by mass: barium, 58.8%; sulfur, 13.74%; oxygen, 27.43%. Determine the empirical formula
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

BaSO₄

Explanation:

Let's assume we have 100 g of the compound. If that's the case we would have:

  • 58.8 g of Ba
  • 13.74 g of S
  • 27.43 g of O

Now we <u>convert the masses of each element into moles</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:

  • 58.8 g Ba ÷ 137.327 g/mol = 0.428 mol Ba
  • 13.74 g S ÷ 32 g/mol = 0.429 mol S
  • 27.43 g O ÷ 16 g/mol = 1.71 mol O

We <u>divide those moles by the lowest number among them</u>:

  • 0.428 mol Ba / 0.428 = 1
  • 0.429 mol S / 0.428 ≈ 1
  • 1.71 mol O / 0.428 = 4

We can express those results as Ba₁S₁O₄, meaning the empirical formula is thus BaSO₄.

What are ionic bonds composed of?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:Ionic compounds are compounds composed of ions, charged particles that form when an atom (or group of atoms) gains or loses electrons. (A cation is a positively charged ion; an anion is a negatively charged ion.) Covalent or molecular compounds form when elements share electrons in a covalent bond to form molecules.

What is the volume of 9.5 g fluorine gas, F2, at STP?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

5.6L

Explanation:

At STP, the pressure and temperature of an ideal gas is

P = 1 atm

T = 273.15k

Volume =?

Mass = 9.5g

From ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = ideal gas constant =0.082J/mol.K

T = temperature of the ideal gas

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Molar mass of F2 = 37.99g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 9.5 / 37.99

Number of moles = 0.25moles

PV = nRT

V = nRT/ P

V = (0.25 × 0.082 × 273.15) / 1

V = 5.599L = 5.6L

The volume of the gas is 5.6L
