PLS help
viktelen [127]

Answer:

d . Sc2O5

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, when forming oxides from a metal and oxygen, for us to find out each element's subscript, we must exchange them as shown below, considering +5 for scandium:

Sc^{+5}_2O^{-2}_5

For that reason, the answer is d . Sc2O5

Best regards.

Determine the mass in grams of 3.75 x 10^21 atoms of zinc. (the mass of one mole of zinc is 65.39 g)
Nastasia [14]

Answer: The mass in 3.75 \times 10^{21} atoms of zinc is 0.405 g.

Explanation:

Given: Atoms of zinc = 3.75 \times 10^{21}

It is known that 1 mole of every substance contains 6.022 \times 10^{23} atoms. So, the number of moles in given number of atoms is as follows.

Moles = \frac{3.75 \times 10^{21}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}\\= 0.622 \times 10^{-2}\\= 0.0062 mol

As moles is the mass of a substance divided by its molar mass. So, mass of zinc (molar mass = 65.39 g/mol) is calculated as follows.

Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\0.0062 mol = \frac{mass}{65.39 g}\\mass = 0.405 g

Thus, we can conclude that the mass in 3.75 \times 10^{21} atoms of zinc is 0.405 g.

Write the formula for potassium oxide. why do you not need prefixes in the name ​
Molodets [167]

Potassium oxide: K₂O.

There's no need for prefixes since K₂O is an ionic compound.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Find the two elements on a periodic table:

  • Potassium- K- on the left end of period four.
  • Oxygen- O- near the right end of periodic two.

Elements on the bottom-left corner of the periodic table are metals. Those on the top-right corner are nonmetals.

  • Potassium is a metal,
  • Oxygen is a nonmetal.

A metal and a nonmetal combine to form an ionic compound. Potassium oxide is likely to be an ionic compound. It contains two types of ions:

  • Potassium ions: Potassium is group 1 of the periodic table. It is an alkaline metal. Like other alkaline metals such as sodium Na, potassium K tends to lose one electron and form ions of charge +1 in compounds. The ion would be K⁺.
  • Oxide ions from oxygen: Oxygen is the second most electronegative element on the periodic table. It tends to gain two electrons and form the oxide ion \text{O}^{2-} when it combines with metals.

The two types of ions carry opposite charges. They shall pair up at a certain ratio such that they balance the charge on each other. The charge on each \text{O}^{2-} ion is twice that on a \text{K}^{+} ion. Each \text{K}^{+} would pair up with two \text{O}^{2-}. Hence the subscript in the formula: \text{K}_{\bf 2}\text{O}.

There are two classes of compounds:

  • Covalent compounds, which need prefixes, and
  • Ionic compounds, which need no prefix.

Prefixes are needed only in covalent compounds. For instance in the covalent compound carbon dioxide \text{CO}_2, the prefix di- indicates that there are two oxygen atoms in the formula \text{CO}_2. However, there's no need for prefix in ionic compounds such as \text{K}_2\text{O}.
