I know what you're asking but I don't think the question is stated properly. Technically, an atom will not join with an "oxide" ion; i.e., the oxide ion is an atom of oxygen to which two electrons have been added. An oxide ion will add to 2 K ions or 1 Ca ion. The K ion has lost just one electron so it takes two of them to equal the 2- charge on the oxide ion whereas the Ca ion has lost two electrons and it takes only one of them to equal the charge on the oxide ion.
£ is not a molecule. It is a currency. That is pounds sterling, used in the U.K.
Answer:
Five
Explanation:
Valance electrons are the outermost electrons in an atom. There are five electrons in the third layer of the phosphorus atom. So your answer is five valance electrons.
Iodine is going to form anions capturing electrons from some other element more electropositive
Answer:
a) 24.7 mol
b) 790 g
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Volume of the chamber (V): 200. L
- Room temperature (T): 23 °C
- Pressure of the gas (P): 3.00 atm
Step 2: Convert "T" to Kelvin
We will use the following expression.
K = °C + 273.15
K = 23°C + 273.15 = 296 K
Step 3: Calculate the moles (n) of oxygen
We will use the ideal gas equation.
P × V = n × R × T
n = P × V/R × T
n = 3.00 atm × 200. L/(0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 296 K = 24.7 mol
Step 4: Calculate the mass (m) corresponding to 24.7 moles of oxygen
The molar mass (M) of oxygen ga sis 32.00 g/mol. We will calculate the mass of oxygen using the following expression.
m = n × M
m = 24.7 mol × 32.00 g/mol = 790 g
