Predict the formulas for calcium chloride and potassium phosphate

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sauron [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

CaCl2

And

potasium phosphate is a general name for salt of potassium and phosphate ions . The compounds can exist as

K3PO4 (Tripotassium phosphate)

K2HPO4 (di potassium phosphate)

KH2PO4 (mono potassium phosphate)

Explanation:

Calcium chloride salt is an ionic compound. so it contains both cations and anions. That means it has a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion. In an ionic compound their is a transfer of electron. The valence electron or the charge ion present in an atom can be use to predict the chemical formula of this compound . Base on the compound the positive end is calcium while the negative end is chlorine .

Ca2+  and Cl-

cross multiply the charges

CaCl2

The charge of phosphate ions are (PO4)3−, (HPO4)2− and (H2PO4)−. And base on the valence electron potassium has a stable charge of +1 (K+). The phosphate ion produces the negative charge when it reacts with potassium.

If potassium goes into reaction with any of the phosphate ion it will be as follows.

K+  and  (PO4)3−

cross multiply the charge as usual

K3PO4(tripotassium phosphate)

K+ and (HPO4)2−

cross multiply the charge as usual

K2HPO4(di potassium phosphate)

K+ and (H2PO4)−

cross multiply the charge as usual

KH2PO4 (mono potassium phosphate)

Explain the following phenomena. why Fluorine has lower electron affinity than chlorine​
Radda [10]

Electron affinity for fluorine is than chlorine most likely , due to the electron repulsion that occur between the electron where n= 2 . the elements in the second period have such small electron clouds that electron repulsion is greater than that of the rest of the family.

Which equation can be used to convert from Celsius to Kelvin? O Celsius + 459.67 O (Celsius)x1.8+32 O (Celsius-32)x5/9 Celsius+2
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Celsius +273.15

Explanation:

The two scales have the same size degree, but Kelvin is an absolute scale based on absolute zero while 0° in Celsius is based on the melting point of water. So, in order to convert from Celsius degrees to Kelvin we only need to add 273.15 to the given temperature:

K= °C + 273.15
