Explain how an ionic compound made up of charged particles can be electrically neutral

Chemistry

Answer:

The charge of an ionic compound is neutral because the positive and negative molecules cancel out each other.

Explanation:

An ionic compound is composed of a cation(a positive ion) and a anion(negative ion). When + and - interact with each other, the overall charge is neutral since neither of the ion outweighs the other in terms of positivity or negativity. Hence, the overall charge of an ionic compound is neutral.

a substance did not change its chemical nature in a reaction. which most likely describes the reaction
Mkey [24]
This substance most likely is an inert. It is a substance that is not chemically reactive. It does not change its chemical nature in a reaction. It does not <span>easily react with other chemicals. Most of the group 8 gases in the periodic table are classified as inert, due to their having full outer electron shells. </span>

How many molecules are there in 79g of Fe2O3? how many atoms is this?
Leya [2.2K]
There are approximately 160 grams in 1 mol of Fe2O3 molecules. Therefore, there would be 79/160= 0.49375 mols of Fe2O3 molecules in 79 grams. There are 5 atoms in total for each molecule of Fe2O3, therefore 79/160 * 5 = 79/32 = 2.46875 mols of atoms.

How do chemical and nuclear reactions differ in(c) Effect on rate of higher reactant concentration?
DochEvi [55]

Nuclear reactions involve a change in an atom's nucleus, usually producing a different element. Chemical reactions, on the other hand, involve only a rearrangement of electrons and do not involve changes in the nuclei.

<h3>What affects the rate of nuclear reactions?</h3>

Reactant concentration, the physical state of the reactants, and surface area, temperature, and the presence of a catalyst are the four main factors that affect reaction rate.

<h3>What is the main difference between chemical reactions and nuclear reactions?</h3>

Chemical reaction normally occurs outside the nucleus. Nuclear reaction happens only inside the nucleus. When chemical reactions occur elements hold their identity and the nuclei of atoms also remains unchanged. During nuclear reactions, the nuclei of atoms changes completely and new elements are formed.

What is an ion? Describe and give an example.
Goshia [24]
An ion is a charged atom or molecule. It is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. An atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom. An example is Iron (III) , Iron (II) , lithium, and hydrogen.
