Question 22 Write the empirical formula for at least four ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions:

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ivenika [448]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

We can use the criss-cross method to work out the formulas.  

Explanation:

The steps are

  1. Write the symbols of the anion and cation.
  2. Criss-cross the numbers of the charges to become the subscripts of the other ion.
  3. Write the formula with the new subscripts.
  4. Divide the subscripts by their highest common factor.
  5. Omit all subscripts that are 1.

When we use this method, the formula for the compound formed from NH₄⁺ and PO₄³⁻ becomes (NH₄)₃PO₄.

The table below lists the formulas for the possible combinations.

\begin{array}{ccc}& \textbf{PO}_{4}^{3-} & \textbf{ClO}_{3}^{-}\\\textbf{NH}_{4}^{+} & \text{(NH$_{4}$)$_{3}$PO$_{4}$} & \text{NH$_{4}$ClO}_{3}\\\textbf{Fe}^{3+} & \text{FePO}_{4} & \text{Fe(ClO$_{3}$)}_{3}\\\end{array}

How many of the following atomic particles does a neutral magnesium
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{12 p, 12 n, and 12 e}}

Explanation:

No atoms of Mg have a mass of 24.3050 u. That is the average mass of all the isotopes of Mg.

However, the most common isotope of Mg is ₁₂²⁴Mg (mass = 23.99 u)

The atomic number of Mg is 12. It has 12 protons.

The atomic mass of ²⁴Mg is 24. That's the total number of protons and neutrons.

 p + n = 24

12 + n = 24

       n = 12

An atom of ²⁴Mg has 12 neutrons.

If the atom is neutral, the number of electrons equals the number of protons.

e = p = 12

\text{An atom of }$^{24}$\text{Mg contains }\boxed{\textbf{12 p, 12 n, and 12 e}}

I know the correct answer is either a or d. Can anyone explain which one it is and why? CH3C ≡ CCH2CH2Cl is named: a. 1-chloro-3
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

CH₃C≡ CCH₂CH₂Cl

Since there are 5 carbons so the suffix used is "pent"

There is a triple bond so its alkyne

So the compound becomes 2-pentyne (2 because the triple bond is with the 2nd carbon)

Then,

The functional group of chlorine is attached with 5th carbon So the compound becomes

5-chloro,2-pentyne

Does adding coefficients to a chemical equation disobey the law of definite proportions? Explain your answer.
Temka [501]

Answer:   No

Explanation:

- Law of definite proportions is a case from the Law of conservation of energy (matter) which states that "mass can neither be created nor destroyed, but changed from one form to another."

-  Adding coefficients to a chemical equation confirms that there is the same number of atoms on both sides of a reaction; therefore, matter has not been created or destroyed but reorganized to give new substrates.

Example :             2 Mg + O2 → 2 MgO              

In the balanced equation above, 2 moles of Mg reacts with 1 mole of O2 to produce 2 moles of MgO.

mass of 2 moles of Mg  = 24×2= 48 grams

mass of 1 mole of O2 = 16+16 = 32 grams

total mass of reactants = 48 + 32 = 80 grams


mass of 2 moles of MgO = (24+16) ×2 = 80 grams  

total mass of products = 80 grams

It is clear that the number of grams of matter before and after the reaction is the same and  equals to 80 grams, so obeys the law of definite proportions..

After mixing the solutions in a separatory funnel, the stopper should be ______ and the liquid should be _______ and the layers
maw [93]

Answer:

Hence,  

1) removed  

2) drained through the stopcock  

3) get eye level with  

4) slow the draining  

5) switch to a new flask

Explanation:

After mixing the solutions in a separatory funnel, the stopper should be removed and the liquid should be drained through the stopcock, and the layers allowed to separate. When you get close to the interface between the layers, get eye level with the funnel and turn over to slow the draining heat up until the first layer is collected. Switch to a new flask get eye level with it to collect the second layer.
