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 :)

Name the type of ion formed by the atom when it loses three electrons. Show by illustration
Nimfa-mama [501]
The atoms of elements can gain or lose electrons and become ions. Ions are charged particles that have gained or lost electrons. The atoms of elements can gain or lose electrons to form monatomic ions (made from a single atom of an element).

Calculate the number of liters in 3.25 g of ammonia
il63 [147K]

 The liters in   3.25 g   of  ammonia  4.28 L


  <u><em>calculation</em></u>

 Step 1: find moles of ammonia

 moles = mass÷ molar  mass

 From  periodic    table  the molar mass  of ammonia (NH₃)  =  14 +(1×3 ) = 17  g/mol

3.25 g÷ 17 g/mol = 0.191   moles

Step 2: find the number of liters of ammonia

 that is at STP  1  moles = 22.4 L

                        0.191 moles = ? L

<em>by cross  multiplication</em>

 ={( 0.191   moles  ×22.4 L) / 1 mole}  = 4.28 L
