Why are atoms attracted to each other in an ionic bond?

Answer:

opposite charges attract

Explanation: Ionic bonding is the attraction between positive and negative charge ions electrostatics explains why this happens: opposite charges attract and like charges repel. when many ions attract each other, they form large, ordered, crystal lattices in which each ion is surrounded by ions of the opposite charge.

Answer:

The answer is C. Inversely, when this atom gains a positively charged ion. (The atom) becomes a negatively charged atom or an "anion".

Explanation:

Since electrons are negatively charged, an atom that loses one or more electrons will become positively charged, an atom that gains one or more electrons becomes negatively charged. The oppositely charged ions attract each other to form ionic networks (or lattices)

if 20.2g of NO and 13.8g of O2 are used to form NO2, how many moles of excess reactant will be left over
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

0.095 moles of O₂ are left over.

Explanation:

First of all, state the balanced reaction:

2NO + O₂ → 2NO₂

We determine moles of each reactant:

20.2 g . 1mol / 30g =  0.673 moles of NO

13.8g . 1mol / 32g = 0.431 moles of oxygen

Oxygen is the excess reactant. Let's see.

For 2 moles of NO I need 1 mol of O₂

Then, for 0.673 moles of NO I may use (0.673 .1) /2 = 0.336 moles

I have 0.431 moles of O₂ and I only need 0.336 mol. According to reaction, stoichiometry is 2:1.

In conclussion, the moles of excess reactant that will be left over:

0.431 - 0.336 = 0.095 moles

PLEASE HELP!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
Andrew [12]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

                                         Trial 1                   Trial 2

mass of Mg                      0.255 g                0.353 g

mass of MgO                   0.418 g                 0.576 g

Chemical reaction

                                2Mg(s)    +  O₂(g)     ⇒   2MgO(s)

Question 1.

Atomic mass of Mg = 24.31 x 2 = 48.62 g

Molecular mass of MgO = 2(24.31 + 16) = 80.62 g

Trial 1

                          48.62 g of Mg ----------------- 80.62 g of MgO

                          0.255 g            ----------------   x

                          x = (0.255 x 80.62)/48.62

                          x = 0.422 g of MgO

Trial 2                48.62 g of Mg ----------------- 80.62 g of MgO

                          0.353 g            ----------------   x

                          x = (0.353 x 80.62)/48.62

                          x = 0.585 g of MgO

Question 2

Trial 1          

Percent yield = 0.418/0.422 x 100 = 99%

Trial 2

Percent yield = 0.576/0.585 x 100 = 98.5%

Question 3

Average = (99 + 98.5)/2

              = 98.75%
