Chemistry

Answer:

By the result of the formation of positive and negative ions, Ionic compounds are formed.

Explanation:

Electrons are actually transferred from one atom to another to form rare gas electron structures for each ion. The atom which forms a positive ion loses electrons to the atom which gains electrons to form a negative ion. A compound is not stable unless the number of electrons which are lost and gained are equal

Zinc would be considered the strongest reducing agent.

<h3>Reducing agent</h3>

A reducing agent is a chemical species that "donates" one electron to another chemical species in chemistry (called the oxidizing agent, oxidant, oxidizer, or electron acceptor). Earth metals, formic acid, oxalic acid, and sulfite compounds are a few examples of common reducing agents.

Reducers have excess electrons (i.e., they are already reduced) in their pre-reaction states, whereas oxidizers do not. Usually, a reducing agent is in one of the lowest oxidation states it can be in. The oxidation state of the oxidizer drops while the oxidizer's oxidation state, which measures the amount of electron loss, increases. The agent in a redox process whose oxidation state rises, which "loses/donates electrons," which "oxidizes," and which "reduces" is known as the reducer or reducing agent.

The analysis of a compound gives the following percent composition by mass: C: 52.14 percent; H: 9.946 percent; S: 12.66 percent

wariber [46]

Answer:

C11H25SO4

Explanation:

The total mass of the compound is 253.4 g, so, the mass of each element will be:

C: 52.14% of 253.4 = 0.5214x253.4 = 132.12 g

H: 9.946% of 253.4 = 0.09946x253.4 = 25.20 g

S: 12.66% of 253.4 = 0.1266x253.4 = 32.08 g

O: 25.26% of 253.4 = 0.2526x253.4 = 64.00 g

The molar mass are: C = 12 g/mol, H 1 g/mol, S = 32 g/mol, and O = 16 g/mol

So, to know how much moles will be, just divide the mass calculated above for the molar mass:

C: 132.12/12 = 11 moles

H: 25.20/ 1 = 25 moles

S: 32.08/32 = 1 mol

O: 64.00/16 = 4 moles

So the molecular formula is C11H25SO4

Power is the rate at which energy is?

Mrrafil [7]

In physics, power is the rate of doing work. It is the amount of energy consumed per unit time. Having no direction, it is a scalar quantity. In the SI system, the unit of power is the joule per second (J/s), known as the watt in honour of James Watt, the eighteenth-century developer of the steam engine.
