Why are ionic compounds usually between metals and nonmetals?

Chemistry
1 answer:
poizon [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Nonmetals lose electrons to gain a negative charge and form anions, whereas metals lose electrons to gain a postive charge and form cations.

Atoms that gain or lose electrons are called ions and can have a negative charge or a postive charge.

What is the volume of an 2.3 solution with 212 grams of calcium chloride dissolved in it
Travka [436]

830 mL. A 2.3 mol/L solution of CaCl2 has a volume of 830 mL

I am guessing that the concentration of your solution is 2.3 mol/L.

a) Moles of CaCl2

MM of CaCl2 = 110.98 g/mol

Moles of CaCl2 = 212 g CaCl2 x (1 mol CaCl2/110.98 g CaCl2)

= 1.910 mol CaCl2

b) Volume of solution

V = 1.910 mol CaCl2 x (1 L solution/2.3 mol CaCl2) = 0.83 L solution

= 830 mL solution

Give the chemical symbol of an element in the third period (row) of the periodic table with four 3p electrons.
Ann [662]

<u>Answer: </u>The chemical symbol of the element is Sulfur.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The element which is present in third period of the periodic table having four 3p electrons is Sulfur. Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table which has 6 valance electrons.

The electronic configuration of this element is:  [Ne]3s^23p^4

This element is considered as a non-metal because it will accept electrons in order to attain stable electronic configuration.

Hence, the chemical symbol of the element is Sulfur.
