Which pair of elements is most apt to form an ionic compound with each other?

1 answer:

7 0

Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed together by a cation and an anion. A cation is an ion with a positive charge. For example, Na+ and Ca2+. An ion has a negative charge, like Cl- and OH-. There is a greater chance of forming an ionic compound when they have a great difference in electronegativity, the ability to attract electrons toward itself. In the periodic table, elements that are opposite to each other, more likely found in opposite sides, would be more apt to form an ionic compound. Example would be NaCl and CaCl2 or Ca(OH)2.

Question 6

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Acid/String Electrolyte

Explanation:

Litmus paper turning red means it is an acidic solution. A pH of more than 7 is Base while pH of less than 7 is an acid. Since the pH is 2, less than 7, it s is an acid. Since it has a high electrical conductivity, it must be a strong Electrolyte.

The formation of SO3 from SO2 and O2 is an intermediate step in the manufacture of sulfuric acid, and it is also responsible for

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

118.22 atm

Explanation:

2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇌ 2SO₃(g)

KP = 0.13 = $\frac{p(SO_{3})^{2}}{p(SO_{2})^{2}p(O_{2})}$

Where p(SO₃) is the partial pressure of SO₃, p(SO₂) is the partial pressure of SO₂ and p(O₂) is the partial pressure of O₂.

With 2.00 mol SO₂ and 2.00 mol O₂ if there was a 100% yield of SO₃, then 2 moles of SO₃ would be produced and 1.00 mol of O₂ would remain.
With a 71.0% yield, there are only 2*0.71 = 1.42 mol SO₃, the moles of SO₂ that didn't react would be 2 - 1.42 = 0.58; and the moles of O₂ that didn't react would be 2 - 1.42/2 = 1.29.

The total number of moles is 1.42 + 0.58 + 1.29 = 3.29. With that value we can calculate the molar fraction (X) of each component:

XSO₂ = 0.58/3.29 = 0.176

XO₂ = 1.29/3.29 = 0.392

XSO₃ = 1.42/3.29 = 0.432

The partial pressure of each gas is equal to the total pressure (PT) multiplied by the molar fraction of each component.

p(SO₂) = 0.176 * PT

p(O₂) = 0.392 * PT

p(SO₃) = 0.432 * PT

Rewriting KP and solving for PT:

$\frac{p(SO_{3})^{2}}{p(SO_{2})^{2}p(O_{2})}=0.13\\\frac{(0.432*P_{T})^{2}}{(0.176*P_{T})^{2}(0.392*P_{T})} =0.13\\\frac{0.1866*P_{T}^{2}}{0.0121*P_{T}^{3}} =0.13\\\frac{15.369}{P_{T}}=0.13\\P_{T}=118.22 atm$

Calculate the molarity of 0.850 mol of Na2S in 1.70 L of solution.

Basile [38]

Molarity is simply the ratio of the number of moles of a substance over the total volume of the solution. Assuming that the addition of 0.850 moles does not change the overall volume of 1.70 L, therefore molarity is simply:

Molarity = 0.850 moles / 1.70 L = 0.5 moles / L = 0.5 M
