So,

Ionic compounds are compounds composed of ions.  The following are soluble ionic compounds (they dissolve in water):

NaCl(s) --> Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)
NaOH(s) --> Na⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The following are insoluble ionic compounds (they have low solubilities):

Al₂O₃ --> 2Al³⁺+3O²⁻
AgCl --> Ag⁺ + Cl⁻

These compounds can only be appreciably separated by melting or by dissolving them in enormous amounts of water (the concentration will still be very low).

Ionic compounds have electrons that are locked in place because of the strong ionic attractions between the ions.  A charge is produced by moving electrons.  Since the ions in melted ionic compounds are free to move, their electrons are no longer locked, allowing the ionic liquid to conduct electricity.

NaCl(s) --> Na⁺(l) + Cl⁻(l)

The answer is D.

In a percentage composition investigation a compound was decomposed into its elements: 20.0 g of calcium, 6.0 g of carbon, and 2
inysia [295]

The percentage composition of this compound : 40%Ca, 12%C and 48%O

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

20.0 g of calcium,

6.0 g of carbon,

and 24.0 g of oxygen.

Required

The percentage composition

Solution

Total mass of compound :

=mass calcium + mass carbon + mass oxygen

=20 g + 6 g + 24 g

=50 g

Percentage composition :

  • Ca-calcium

\tt \dfrac{20}{50}\times 100\%=40\%

  • C-carbon

\tt \dfrac{6}{50}\times 100\%=12\%

  • O-oxygen

\tt \dfrac{24}{50}\times 100\%=48\%

How many grams of Na2So4 would be formed if 0.75 moles of NaOH reacted?
Nata [24]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{53 g }}

Explanation:

You don't give the reaction, but we can get by just by balancing atoms of Na.

We know we will need the partially balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses, so let’s gather all the information in one place.

M_r:                                 142.04  

             2NaOH + … ⟶ Na₂SO₄ + …  

n/mol:      0.75

1. Use the molar ratio of Na₂SO₄ to NaOH to calculate the moles of NaF.

Moles of Na₂SO₄ = 0.75 mol NaOH × (1 mol Na₂SO₄/2 mol NaOH

= 0.375 mol Na₂SO₄

2. Use the molar mass of Na₂SO₄ to calculate the mass of Na₂SO₄.

Mass of Na₂SO₄ = 0.375 mol Na₂SO₄ × (142.04 g Na₂SO₄/1 mol Na₂SO₄) = 53 g Na₂SO₄

The reaction produces \boxed{\text{53 g }} of Na₂SO₄.
