Answer:
On the Moh's scale of hardness, aluminum oxide is positioned just below to diamond due to which it is considered as one of the hardest known compounds. This also shows that the compound exhibit an enormous amount of lattice energy, as to transform the oxide into its constituent ions, the energy is required to overcome.
Based on the chemical formula of the compound, that is, Al2O3, it is shown that the ions of Al3+ and O2- are kept close due to the activity of the strong electrostatic ionic bonds. The electrostatic forces and the ionic bonding between the ions are extremely robust due to the presence of the ions high charge density. Therefore, to dissociate the bonds, an enormous amount of energy is needed, and at the same time, a high amount of lattice energy is present.
Answer:
Percentage composition = 14.583%
Explanation:
In chemistry, the emprical formular of a compound is the simplest formular a compound can have. It shows the simplest ratio in which the elements are combined in the compound.
Percentage composition by mass of Nitrogen
Nitrogen = 14g/mol
In one mole of the compound;
Mass of Nitrogen = 1 mol * 14g/mol = 14g
Mass of compound = 1 mol * 96.0 g/mol = 96
Percentage composition of Nitrogen = (Mass of Nitrogen / Mass of compound) * 100
percentage composition = 14/96 * 100
Percentage composition = 0.14583 * 100
Percentage composition = 14.583%
Answer:
Explanation:
The elements in Group I of the periodic table are called alkali metals. They are called alkali metals because they react with water to form alkali solutions. These metals are very reactive; hence they have to be stored under oil to protect them from corrosion by air and waterwaterwater
Answer:
D) There must be equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.
Explanation:
The balancing equation must have equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.
The balance equation shoes mass is conserved thus followed the law of conservation of mas.
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
Explanation:
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
For example:
In given photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.
