When, it donates electons.
as for example take
NaCl ( sodium chloride)
it's an ionic compund,
that means it is formed by donating or gaining electrons
Na is writen first than, it must be electropositive i.e it has donated electons which made it positive and the clorine gains electron so it's electronegative.
Na is positive because
as we know it's atomic number is 11 that means it has 11 protons and 11 electrons
now, when it donate electon it has, greater number of protons whose change is +ve so the atom becomes overall positively charged ion or cation.
and something same happens in clorine and because it gains one electron and the number of electrons increase in it by 1 whise charge is -ve so, the atom becomes negatively charged ion or anion which has a -1 charge.
Answer:
No limiting reagent. There is an exact amount of each.
Explanation:
Start by getting the equation
Fe + O2 -> Fe2O3
If you balance the oxygens the Fe will easily follow.
Fe + 3O2 => 2Fe2O3
So far what you have is 6 oxygens on the right and 6 on the left. Now all you need do is balance the irons. The are 4 on the right (2Fe2). So you must have 4 on the left.
4Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3
Now to your question if you have 4 mols of iron, you need 3 mols of O2. Those are the balance numbers of the equation. They also represent mols.
There is no limiting reagent in the theoretical world of chemistry. All the iron will be used up and so will the given amount of oxygen.
It depends on which manner the formulae is being asked but the answer is: KNO3
