Answer:

When naming molecular compounds prefixes are used to dictate the number of a given element present in the compound. ” Mono-” indicates one, “Di-” indicates two, “Tri-” is three, “Tetra-” is four, “Penta-” is five, and “Hexa-” is six, “Hepta-” is seven, “Octo-” is eight, “Nona-” is nine, and “Deca-” is ten.

The valences of metal x,y and z are 1,2 and 3 respectively. What are the formulae of their;a) hydroxides, b) sulphates, c) hydro
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

AS we know that the valence for those metals X, Y, and Z are 1, 2 and 3, we can determine the formula of each compound.

1. Hydroxides.

An hydroxide is formed when an oxyde of a metal reacts with water. When this happens, the general molecular formula is:

Meₐ(OH)ₙ

Where:

a: valence or charge of the hydroxide (Which is -1)

n: valence of the metal.

Following this, the formula for X, Y and Z would be:

XOH

Y(OH)₂

Z(OH)₃

2. Sulphates

Sulphates follow a similar rule of hydroxide in the general molecular formula, but instead of having a charge of -1, it has a charge of -2 so:

Mₐ(SO₄)ₙ

So, following the rule:

X₂SO₄

Y₂(SO₄)₂ ------> YSO₄

Z₂(SO₄)₃

3. Hydrogens

Following the same rule as the previous, hydrogens works with a charge of -1, so:

MₐHₙ

Then:

XH

YH₂

ZH₃

4. Carbonates.

This follows the same rule as sulphates, with the same charge so:

Mₐ(CO₃)ₙ

Then:

X₂CO₃

YCO₃

Z₂(CO₃)₃

5. Nitrates

Follow the same rule as the hydroxides, with the same charge of -1.

Mₐ(NO₃)ₙ

Then:

XNO₃

Y(NO₃)₂

Z(NO₃)₂

6. Phosphates

In the case of phosphates, these have a charge of -3 so:

Mₐ(PO₄)ₙ

Then:

X₃PO₄

Y₃(PO₄)₂

Z₃(PO₄)₃ ----> ZPO₄

Hope this helps

A balloon occupies 1.50 L with 0.205 mol of carbon dioxide. How many moles would be required to increase the size of the balloon
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

0.683 moles of the gas are required

Explanation:

Avogadro's law relates the moles of a gas with its volume. The volume of a gas is directely proportional to its moles when temperature and pressure of the gas remains constant. The law is:

V₁n₂ = V₂n₁

<em>Where V is volume and n are moles of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas.</em>

<em />

Computing the values of the problem:

1.50Ln₂ = 5L*0.205mol

n₂ = 0.683 moles of the gas are required

Identify the classification of milk a aerosol b solid emulsion c solid aerosol d foam e emulsion
enot [183]

option (c) emulsion is the right answer

Emulsion is a classification of milk.

<h3>Describe an emulsion.</h3>

In physical chemistry, an emulsion is a combination of two or more liquids in which one of the liquids is present as microscopic or ultramicroscopic droplets dispersed throughout the other.

<h3>How is emulsion used?</h3>

Emulsions form as a result of the cleansing action of soaps.

(ii) The emulsification process is how lipids are broken down in the intestines.

(iii) Disinfectants and antiseptics combine with water to generate emulsions.

(iv) The emulsification technique is utilized to create medications.

<h3>How is an emulsion created?</h3>

When two immiscible liquids, such as oil and water, are stirred together with an emulsifier—which might be a protein, phospholipid, or even a nanoparticle—emulsion is created.
