Identify the kinds of ions that form each ionic compound

1 answer:

4 0

Ionic compounds are formed by a positive ion called cation and a negative ion called anion.

I will show you some examples:

NaCl is formed by the cation Na+ and the anion Cl -

CaF2 is formed by the cation Ca 2+ and the anion F -

Li2O if formd by the cation Li + and the anion O 2-.

To tell that you use the oxidation number of each element. I did it this way

Ca F2 => Ca has oxidation number 2+ and F has oxidation number 1- then the ions have that very same charge number.

What is the difference between water and alcohol

Rudik [331]

Answer:

water is H2O having different structure than alcohol R-OH which means they have different properties too.

Explanation:

In water one oxygen atom is covalently bound with two hydrogen atoms while alcohol is an organic compound having Oh group attached to the carbon chain.

Other than liquid water can occur in solid form that is ice and in gaseous form that is vapors too while alcohol only present in liquid form.

heat of evaporation of alcohol is lower than water means water need more heat to evaporate than alcohol that is why we can say alcohol having more cooling effect than water.

Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes(Mg-24, Mg-25, and Mg-26). The atomic mass and natural abundance of Mg-24 are 23

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

Atomic mass Abundance

Mg -24 = 23.9850 79%

Mg -25 = 24.9858 10%

Mg - 26= ? ?

Process

1.- Find the abundance of Mg-26

The sum of the abundance of the three isotopes equals 100%

Abundance Mg-24 + Abundance-Mg-25 + Abundance-26 = 100

79 + 10 + Abundance-26 = 100

Abundance Mg-26 = 100 -89

Abundance Mg-26 = 11%

2.- Find the atomic mass of Mg-26, the average atomic mass is 24.31 amu

Average atomic mass = (abundance)(atomic mass- 24) + (abundance)

(atomic mass-25) + (abundance)(atomic mass-26)

24.31 = (0.79)(23.9850)+ (0.10)(24.9858) + (Atomic mass-26)(0.11)

24.31 = 18.94815 + 2.4986 + 0.11(atomic mass-26)

24.31 = 21.4342 + 0.11(atomic mass- 26)

0.11(atomic mass-26) = 24.31 - 21.4342

0.11(atomic mass-26) = 2.8758

Atomic mass-26 = 2.8758/0.11

Atomic mass-26 = 26.1436 amu

How would changing the proportions of substance in an alloy change its properties?

sammy [17]

An alloy is a mixture of two or more metals which is produced with a specific proportion between metals. So, if the proportion is changed the physical characteristic would be changed as well. For example, brass musical instruments are made of brass which is a mixture (an alloy) of zinc and copper in a specific proportion. If you change a proportion, you will change the physical characteristic of brass musical instruments, and a sound they produce will be different.

What does heat mean in chemistry

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Heat is the transfer of energy that results from the difference in temperature between a system and its surroundings. At a molecular level, heat is the transfer of energy that makes use of or stimulates disorderly molecular motion in the surroundings.
