Answer:
Halogen / salt-former
Explanation:
Bromine is classified as an element in the 'Halogens' section which can be located in group 7 of the Periodic Table. The term "halogen" means "salt-former" and compounds containing halogens are called "salts".
1. Write out the formula
Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2HCl (aq) ----> PbCl2 + 2HNO3
2. Use solubility guidelines (gotta memorize 'em) for the products to see if a solid forms
Nitrates are always soluble so 2HNO3 (aq)
Chlorides (Cl) are always soluble except for when you mix them with copper, lead, mercury, or silver.
Since you mixed it with lead (Pb) it is solid and forms a precipitate. PbCl2 (s)
Answer:
polyatomic, ionic
Explanation:
unit that contains two or more atoms covalently bonded together but that has an overall charge is called a(n) polyatomic ion. Many ionic compounds contain such units.
The empirical formula for a compound is KClO3
Explanation
find the moles of each element
moles = % composition/molar mass
molar mass of of potassium =39g/mol ,chlorine = 35.5 g/mol, oxygen =16 g/mol
moles of potassium = 31.9 / 39 = 0.818 moles
moles of chlorine = 28.9/35.5 = 0.814 moles
moles of oxygen = 39.2/ 16 = 2.45 moles
find the mole ratio by dividing with the smallest mole = 0.814 moles
potassium = 0.818/0.814 =1
chlorine = 0.814/0.814 = 1
oxygen = 2.45 /0.814 =3
the empirical formula is therefore = KClO3
