Carbon disulfide ( S=C=S) is made up of one carbon atom and two sulfur atom.
Carbon has 4 valence electrons while sulfur has 6 electrons.
During bonding all the four carbon valence electrons are used in bonding while each sulfur atom contributes two electrons two the bond formation.
Therefore; 4 + 2(2) = 8 electrons are used for bonding, while 8 electrons ( four from each sulfur atom) are not used for bond formation.
Answer:
The cation Fe3+ is formed when a. an atom of iron loses two electrons.
Explanation:
Answer:
2 PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3 Fe²⁺(aq) ⇒ Fe₃(PO₄)₂
Explanation:
Let's consider the complete ionic equation between the ions present. It includes all the ions and the insoluble compounds (Fe₃(PO₄)₂ is insoluble).
Na⁺(aq) + 2 PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3 Fe²⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq) ⇒ Fe₃(PO₄)₂ + Na⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq)
The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction (not spectator ions) and the insoluble compounds.
2 PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3 Fe²⁺(aq) ⇒ Fe₃(PO₄)₂
Explanation:
Chloroform and silver powder react with each other and exchange the ions with each other to form acetylene molecules which are also called ethyne and silver chloride. The molecule C2H2is called acetylene which is a colourless gas with no odour.
