When writing an ionic compound formula, a "molecular" form is used. The formula is made with allowance for ion charges.
For example,
Ca²⁺ and NO₃⁻ ⇒ Ca(NO₃)₂
Al³⁺ and SO₄²⁻ ⇒ Al₂(SO₄)₃
The formula that would represent an ionic compound that is composed of calcium and iodide ions is CaI2
Explanation
Ionic compound CaI₂ is formed when Calcium form cation ( <em>a positively charged ion</em>) by losing 2 electrons while two iodine atoms form anion ( <em>a negatively charged ion</em>) by gaining one electron each.
When writing down formula of ionic compound, the formula of cation is written first followed by anion formula. therefore Ca is written first followed by I.
The numeric subscript 2 after I(iodine) indicate that 2 atoms of iodine are involved in bonding.
Answer: 20.775 g S
Explanation: 3.9x10^23 atoms = 0.648 mol
Atomic mass S = 32.08
S in grams = 20.775
Answer:
B. False is the rite answer
In 1 molecule of the compound C₆H₁₂O₂ there are 12 moles of hydrogen atoms
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
C₆H₁₂O₂ compound
Required
moles of Hydrogen
Solution
In a compound, there is a mole ratio of the constituent elements.
The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.
A molecular formula is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.
In the C₆H₁₂O₂ compound, there are 3 forming elements: C, H and O
The number of each element is indicated by its subscript
C: 6 moles
H = 12 moles
O = 2 moles
