Answer:

The empirical formula is Ag2O.

The empirical formula is Ag2O.Explanation:

The empirical formula is Ag2O.Explanation:The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.

The empirical formula is Ag2O.Explanation:The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles. So our job is to calculate the molar ratio of Ag to 2O.

do the steps ...

To get this into an integer ratio, we divide both numbers by the smaller value.

From this point on, I like to summarize the calculations in a table.

There are 2 mol of Ag for 1 mol of O.

How do you know if a compound will dissociate or ionize in water?

Ivenika [448]

when an ionic or covalent compound is dissolved in water they break apart into ions through process called dissociation ..the ions get attracted by the water molecules and hence they carry polar charges ..and if there is a conduction of electricity. .then we get to know that a compound is dissociated ..

Balancing Chemical Equation Na+Br2=NaBr

solniwko [45]

Answer:

2Na + Br2 = 2NaBr

Explanation:

In order to balance a chemical equation you make the make sure both sides have the same number of atoms on each side, you do this by multiplying on both sides as if it was a algebraic equation.

Na+ Br2 = NaBr

Na × 2 = Na2

Br × 2 = Br2

2Na + Br2 = 2NaBr

Hope this helps.

Phosphorus can be stable with 12 electrons in its valence structure while nitrogen can never have more than 8 electrons in its v

dolphi86 [110]

Here we have explain that the maximum possible electrons present in nitrogen valence shell is 8 whereas in phosphorous 12 valence electrons are present.

Although both nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) belongs to the same series there are several properties which are different between both the element. The number of electrons present in nitrogen is seven which are present in the -s and -p orbitals. The electronic configuration of nitrogen is 1s²2s²2p³. In which the outermost electrons are the valence electrons i.e. 5 valence electrons are present. The maximum orbitals are possible under the principal quantum number 2 are -s and -p orbitals. Now the maximum capacity of the p orbital to contain 6 electrons, as it is half filled in nitrogen another 3 electrons can be incorporated. Thus the maximum number of electrons can be present in nitrogen is 10 among which 8 is the valence electrons.

On the other hand there are 15 electrons in phosphorous the electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p³. Now the principal quantum number 3 can have three orbitals -s, -p and -d. So another 13 electrons can be incorporated (3 in -p orbital and 10 in -d orbital) among which upto 12 electrons can be its valence electrons.
