Answer:
15.Potassium oxide
16.Calcium chloride
17.Aluminium sulphide
18.CaS
Explanation:
15.K is the chemical symbol of Potassium and generally the name of the non-metal at the end of a formula has the suffix '-ide' and since O is oxygen, the name becomes Potassium oxide.
16. The same applies here. Ca is Calcium and Cl is Chlorine but since its the non-metal at the end, it ends in -ide. So Calcium chloride.
17.The same applies here too. Al is Aluminium and S is Sulphur so Aluminium sulphide.
18. Calcium's symbol is Ca and that of Sulphur is S and that gives the formula CaS.
The second option only.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
A base neutralizes an acid when the two reacts to produce water and a salt.
Sulfuric acid H₂SO₄ is the acid here. There are more than one classes of bases that can neutralize H₂SO₄. Among the options, there are:
Metal hydroxides
Metal hydroxides react with sulfuric acid to produce water and the sulfate salt of the metal.
.
The formula for calcium sulfate
in option A is spelled incorrectly. Why? The charge on each calcium
is +2. The charge on each sulfate ion
is -2. Unlike
ions, it takes only one
ion to balance the charge on each
ion. As a result,
and
ions in calcium sulfate exist on a 1:1 ratio.
.
Ammonia, NH₃
Ammonia NH₃ can also act as a base and neutralize acids. NH₃ exists as NH₄OH in water:
.
The ion
acts like a metal cation. Similarly to the metal hydroxides, NH₃ (or NH₄OH) neutralizes H₂SO₄ to produce water and a salt:
.
The formula of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄ in the fourth option spelled the ammonium ion incorrectly.
As part of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄, the ammonium ion NH₄⁺ is one of the products of this reaction and can't neutralize H₂SO₄ any further.
<h2>Answer </h2>
Matter
<u>Explanation </u>
A matter has distinct properties and composition that never vary. The matter is anything which possesses mass and occupies space. The matter has different characteristics and a distribution that does not change from unit to unit. Materials which cannot be disintegrated into simpler materials. Each is made of only one kind of atom in subatomic level. For example, a chair, table, and similar everything that has mass and occupies space is matter.
Answer :
The atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
Explanation :
Atomic number : it is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons.
Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons
Mass number or atomic mass : It is defined as the sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons.
Mass number or atomic mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
For example :
Number of protons in carbon = 6
Number of neutrons in carbon = 6
Mass number or atomic mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
Mass number or atomic mass = 6 + 6
Mass number or atomic mass = 12
Thus, the atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
Its FeSO3 or iron(iii)sulfite = Fe2(SO3)3
