Which statement is always true of the cathode in an electrochemical cell? Reduction occurs here. It is considered the "negative"
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

It Is Considered The "negative" Electrode

Explanation:

An electrochemical cell is an electrolytic cell that drives a non-spontaneous redox reaction through the application of electrical energy. This cell is used to decompose chemical compounds, in a process called electrolysis. An electrode at which reduction take place is called the cathode. In reduction, electrons travel toward the site of reduction such that the negative charge is on the cathode.

Give the name and formula of the compound formed from the following elements: (a) sodium and nitrogen; (b) oxygen and strontium;
lisov135 [29]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For a:</u> The chemical name and chemical formula formed is sodium nitride and Na_3N

<u>For b:</u> The chemical name and chemical formula formed is strontium oxide and SrO

<u>For c:</u> The chemical name and chemical formula formed is aluminium chloride and AlCl_3

<u>Explanation:</u>

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

  • <u>For a:</u> Sodium and nitrogen:

Sodium is the 11th element of periodic table having electronic configuration of [Ne]3s^1

To form Na^{+} ion, this element will loose 1 electron.

Nitrogen is the 7th element of periodic table having electronic configuration of [He]2s^22p^3.

To form N^{3-} ion, this element will gain 3 electrons.

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

So, the chemical formula for sodium nitride is Na_3N

  • <u>For b:</u> Oxygen and strontium

Strontium is the 38th element of periodic table having electronic configuration of [Kr]5s^2.

To form Sr^{2+} ion, this element will loose 2 electrons.

Oxygen is the 8th element of periodic table having electronic configuration of [He]2s^22p^4.

To form O^{2-} ion, this element will gain 2 electrons.  

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

So, the chemical formula for strontium oxide is SrO

  • <u>For c:</u> Aluminium and chlorine

Aluminium is the 13th element of periodic table having electronic configuration of [Ne]3s^23p^1

To form Al^{3+} ion, this element will loose 3 electrons.

Chlorine is the 17th element of the periodic table having electronic configuration of [Ne]3s^23p^5

To form Cl^{-} ion, this element will gain 1 electron.

By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.

So, the chemical formula for aluminium chloride is AlCl_3

What is the empirical formula of Fe?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The ratio is 1.000 mol of iron to 1.500 mol of oxygen (Fe1O1.5). Finally, multiply the ratio by two to get the smallest possible whole number subscripts while still maintaining the correct iron-to-oxygen ratio: The empirical formula is Fe2O3.
