Answer:

K₂CrO₅

Explanation:

The empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. To find the empirical formula, we follow the procedure below:

Elements                         Potassium                 Chromium         Oxygen

Mass                                  6.52                             4.34                  5.34

Molar mass                          39                               60                      16

Number of moles             6.52/39                     4.34/60             5.34/16

                                             0.167                          0.072              0.333

Divide through by

the smallest                      0.167/0.072             0.072/0.072          0.333/0.072

                                            2.3                               1                                4.6

                                             2                                 1                                  5

Empirical formula K₂CrO₅

The shielding of electrons gives rise to an effective nuclear charge, Zeff, which explains why boron is larger than oxygen. Esti
Vesna [10]

Zeff = Z - S

Here, Z is the number of protons in the nucleus, that is, atomic number, and S is the number of nonvalence electrons.

For boron, the electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 5, S = 2

Zeff = 5-2 = +3

For O, electronic configuration is 1s₂ 2s₂ 2p₄

Z = 8, S = 2

Zeff = 8-2 = +6

Hence, the correct answer is second option, that is, +3 and +6, the Zeff of boron is smaller in comparison to O, thus, boron exhibits a bigger size than O.

Use the solubility rules to determine if:
xenn [34]

<u>Answer:</u>

A reaction is said to occur if there is a formation of an insoluble solid or a precipitate(s) or a liquid (l) or a gas(g).

If both the reactants and products are in aqueous state, No reaction takes place.

$2 \mathrm{NaCl}(a q)+M g B r_{2}(a q)>M g C l_{2}(a q)+2 \mathrm{NaBr}(a q)(\mathrm{NO} \text { REACTION })$

All chlorides and Bromides are soluble except that of Ag, Hg and Pb.

Hence, No reaction takes place since all the reactants and products are in aqueous states.

${KOH}(a q)+{NaCl}(a q)>K C l(a q)+{NaOH}(a q)(\mathrm{NO} \text { REACTION })$

Salts  of Group IA are soluble. Hence No reaction takes place

$M g S(a q)+2 {NaOH}(a q)>M g(O H)_{2}(s)+N a_{2} S(a q)$

(REACTION TAKES PLACE)

All hydroxides are insoluble except that of Group IA, ammonium ion and  Group IIA down from Calcium.

Hence Reaction takes place with the formation of Mg(OH)_2 precipitate
