Answer:

[Cr(NH3)6.]C13

Explanation:

Alfred Werner's coordination theory (1893) recognized two kinds of valency;

Primary valency which are nondirectional and secondary valency which are directional.

Hence, the number of counter ions precipitated from a complex depends on the primary valency of the central metal ion in the complex.

We must note that it is only these counter ions that occur outside the coordination sphere that can be precipitated by AgNO3.

If we consider the options carefully, only [Cr(NH3)6.]C13 possess counter ions outside the coordination sphere which can be precipitated when treated with aqueous AgNO3.

Write the net ionic equation for the reaction of aqueous solutions of ammonium chloride and iron(III) hydroxide.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

$Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^-(aq)$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, for the reaction between aqueous solutions of ammonium chloride and iron (III) hydroxide, we have the following complete molecular reaction:

$3NH_4Cl(aq)+Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow 3NH_4OH+FeCl_3$

And the full ionic equation, taking into account that the iron (III) hydroxide cannot be dissolved as it is insoluble in water:

$3NH_4^+(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)+Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow 3NH_4^+(aq)+3OH^-(aq)+Fe^{3+}(aq)+3Cl^-(aq)$

Finally, the net ionic equation, considering that spectator ions are NH₄⁺, Cl⁻ as they are both the left and right side, therefore, the net ionic equation is:

$Fe(OH)_3(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}(aq)+3OH^-(aq)$

Best regards.

Since all atoms have negatively charged electrons, shouldn’t every sample of matter have a negative charge ? Explain

Salsk061 [2.6K]

The three sub-atomic particles that made up an atom are electron, proton and neutron. The proton and neutron are present in the nucleus of an atom whereas electrons revolve around the nucleus in the orbits. The atoms are electrically neutral that is they have no charge due to the presence of equal number of protons (which is positively charged) and electrons (which is negatively charged).

All the atoms have negatively charged electrons which are counter balanced by the presence of equal number of protons in the nucleus of an atom and thus, the element is neutral in nature and possess no charge.

One beaker contains 19.93 mL, another contains 14.0 mL and a third contains 10.6 mL. What is the total volume of the three beake

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{44.5 mL}}$

Explanation:

When adding or subtracting values, you must round your answer to the same "place" as the measurement with its last significant figure furthest to the left.

That is, you round off to the same number of decimal places as the measurement with the fewest decimal places.

$\begin{array}{r|r}19.9& \text{3 mL}\\14.0&\text{mL}\\10.6&\text{mL} \\\mathbf{44.5} &\textbf{3 mL}\\\end{array}$

The measurements of 14.0 and 10.6 have one digit after the decimal point, so you round the sum to have only one digit to the right of the decimal.

The number to be dropped (3) is less than 5, so you drop it.

$\text{The total volume of the three beakers is $\large \boxed{\textbf{44.5 mL}}$}$
