See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello there!

3. In this case, according to the given question, it turns out possible for us to say that any chemical formula, for an ionic compound, has the cation (positive) on the left and the anion (negative) on the right; thus, since Mg is a metal, which tends to lose electrons and become positively charged whereas the Cl is a nonmetal, which tends to gain electrons and become negatively charged, we have the following:

$Mg^{2+}Cl^-\\\\Mg^{2+}Cl^-_2\\\\MgCl_2$

4. In this case, since lithium is a metal, as well as magnesium, it is not possible for them to switch around their charges as they will not be bonded because they will be repelled rather than attracted because of their equal positive charges.

Regards!

Calculate the molecular (formula) mass of each compound: (a) iron(ll) acetate tetrahydrate; (b) sulfur tetrachloride; (c) potass

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

a) Iron(ll) acetate tetrahydrate: 245,68 g/mol

b) Sulfur tetrachloride: 173,87 g/mol

c) Potassium ermanganate 158,034 g/mol

Explanation:

To solve this kind of exercises you must look for the number of atoms in each molecule first, then look on the periodic table the atom weight and the multiply the atom weight times the quantity of each atom. For instance:

The molecule of Iron(II) acetate itetrahydrate is (CH3COO)2Fe•4H2O, it means that you have:

2 atoms of carbon times the atomic weight of C (12.00g/mol)= 24g

14 atoms of Hidrogen times the atomic weight of H (1,00g/mol)= 14g

6 atoms of Oxigen times the atomic weight of O (16,0g/mol)= 96

2 atoms of Iron times the atomic weight of Fe (55,84g/mol)= 111,68g

At last, you only have to add the results: 24+14+96+11,68= 245,68g/mol. This example was for the first molecule.

See you,

A certain liquid X has a normal boiling point of 111.20 celsius and a boiling point elevation constant Kb=0.95. calculate the bo

Goshia [24]

Answer: the boiling point is = 137.325°C

Explanation:

From the formula: ∆Tb= Kb*m

From the question, Kb= 0.95, m= 27.5, T1= 111.2°C

Substitute into ∆Tb= Kb*m

∆Tb= 0.95*27.5= 26.125

∆Tb= T2-T1

Hence

T2- 111.2=26.125

T2= 26.125+ 111.2= 137.325°C

Which best describes the relative positions of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom?

Anastaziya [24]

Hello!

The center of an atom is called the nucleus; it is comprised of protons and neutrons, collectively known as nucleons. The electrons float around the nucleus in a cloud.

Answer:
A) Protons and neutrons are in the center of the atom, and electrons move around in the cloud.

In humans, infections by fungi and protists are usually more difficult to treat than bacteria infections. Suggest an explanation

Basile [38]

<span>Fungal diseases are difficult to treat mainly because they are eukaryotic organisms just like us humans, and therefore have less differences for drugs to target without harming the human body as well. Most antibiotics target e.g. the peptidoglycan layer in the bacterial (a prokaryote) cell wall, which is a safe target since eukaryotic cells do not have equivalent structures. Similarly many differences in metabolic pathways between humans and prokaryotes is often targeted by antibiotics, but metabolism of fungi and humans is much more uniform, and hence it is difficult to exclusively target the fungi only.

HOPE THIS HELPS!
