SiO2 is the only possible choice because the other formulas contain metals. how do we know this? because the other formulas contain elements located on the left of the “staircase” on the periodic table that separates metals from non-metals.
Answer:
Number of Na ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
Number of Cl ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
Total number of ions = 1.49 × 10²³ + 1.49 × 10²³ = 2.98 × 10²³.
Explanation:
1 mole of any compound contains 6.023 × 10²³ molecules.
molecular weight of NaCl is 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g.
so, 58.5 grams of NaCl makes 1 mole
⇒ 14.5 g of NaCl =
= 0.248 moles.
⇒ 0.248 mole contains 0.248 × 6.023×10²³ molecules
= 1.49 × 10²³ molecules.
And 1 molecule contains 1 Na ion and 1 Cl ion.
⇒ number of Na ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
⇒ number of Cl ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.
Total number of ions = 1.49 × 10²³ + 1.49 × 10²³ = 2.98 × 10²³.
