When a compound such as X2Z4 is created, what would be the correct simplified chemical formula?

Chemistry

Shtirlitz [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

XZ2

Explanation:

There are different ways in which compounds can be represented. Broadly, we have three different types of formula;

- Structural formular: This shows how th atoms in te compound are connected to each other.

- Molecular formular: This shows the actual number of atoms of element present in the compound

- Empirical Formular: This is the simplest formular of a compound. It basically shows the number of atoms in simple ration to each other.

This question requires us to input the empirical formular;

X2Z4

The ratio of the elements is; 2 : 4 which can be simplified into 1 : 2

This means the empirical formular is XZ2

Describe what happens to the size of atoms of the elements as you go across a row and down a column in the periodic table. expla
ipn [44]
Atom size increases down a group because there is an increase in the number of shells so the attraction between electrons and protons decreases. Atom size decreases across a period because the number of protons increases meaning that there is more attraction between the protons and electrons therefore drawing the outer shells closer to the nucleus.

What mechanical and chemical digestion occur in the stomach?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

See the answe below, please.

Explanation:

In the stomach, during digestion there are two types of:

-Mechanics: the degradation of food occurs, distension of the stomach walls is performed when they arrive, producing the Chyme.

Chemistry: through the participation of enzymes (pepsin activated by hydrochloric acid, which digests proteins in shorter amino acid chains and; gastric lipase that breaks fat giving glycerin products and fatty acids)

A scientist observed a 5-mL sample of an unknown substance. It is a blue liquid with a density of 1.2 g/cm. the substance reacts
LenaWriter [7]
Characteristic properties can be used to describe and identify the substances, while non-characteristic properties, although can be used to describe the substances, cannot be used to identify them.

Temperature, mass, color, shape and volume are examples of non-characteristic properties.

Density, boiling point, melting point, chemical reactivity are examples of characteristic properties.

List of the properties observed by the scientist:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Property                                     Type of property
----------------------------------------------------------------
Volume: 5 ml                              non-characteristic
----------------------------------------------------------------
Color: blue                                 non-characteristic
----------------------------------------------------------------
State: liquid                                characteristic
------------------------------------------------------------
density: 1.2 g/cm                        characteristic
------------------------------------------------------------
Reaction: reacts with CO2         characteristic
