Ions are electrically charged particles formed when atoms lose or gain electrons. They have the same electronic structures as noble gases. Metal atoms form positive ions, while non-metal atoms form negative ions. The strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions are called ionic bonds.
<u>61.25 grams</u> of CO can be formed from 35 grams of oxygen.
The molecular mass of oxygen is <u>16 gmol⁻¹</u>
The molecular mass of carbon monoxide is<u> 28 gmol⁻¹</u>
Explanation:
The molar mass of carbon monoxide is molar mass of C added to that of O;
12 + 16 = 28
= 28g/mol
The molar mass of oxygen is 16 g/mol while that of oxygen gas (O₂) is 32 g/mol
Since the ration oxygen to carbon monoxide is 1: 2 moles, we begin to find out how many moles of carbon monoxide are formed by 35 g of oxygen;
35/32 * 2
= 70/32 moles
Then multiply by the molar mass of carbon monoxide;
70/32 * 28
= 61.25 g
