An ionic compound is a compound between a metal and a non metal where the metal (normally from group 1 or 2) transferrs an electron to the non metal ( most commonly from group 6 or 7) . this is so that both atoms have a full outer shell of electrons. the metal gains a positive charge and the non metal a negative charge. they are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction. an example would be sodium chloride (salt) sodium is in group 1 and chlorine in group 7 so sodium transfers one electron :)

Which tool was used to collect the solid product of the chemical reaction? the balance the funnel with the filter paper the Erle
Serggg [28]

Answer:

the funnel with the filter paper

Explanation:

When the mixture of solution is poured through the funnel with filter paper, the liquid solution can pass through the filter paper and gets collected in the beaker (filtrate) while the solid products are too large to pass through the filter paper, so they remain on the funnel (residue).

With this tool, the solid product could be separated from the mixture.

What mass of h2o will be produced if 9.5 g of h2 reacts with 1.2 g of o2?
ahrayia [7]
Answer is: mass of water is 1,35 grams.
Chemical reaction: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O.
m(H₂) = 9,5 g.
n(H₂) = m(H₂) ÷ M(H₂).
n(H₂) = 9,5 g ÷ 2 g/mol.
n(H₂) = 4,75 mol.
m(O₂) = 1,2 g.
n(O₂) = 1,2 g ÷ 32 g/mol.
n(O₂) = 0,0375 mol; limiting reactant.
From chemical reaction: n(O₂) : n(H₂O) = 1 : 2.
n(H₂O) = 0,0375 mol · 2 = 0,075 mol.
m(H₂O) = 0,075 mol · 18 g/mol.
m(H₂O) = 1,35 g.
