If barium was to react with oxygen to form ionic compounds, how many oxygen atoms would be needed? Explain.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dafna11 [192]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

1 oxygen atoms

Explanation:

When barium combines with oxygen to form an ionic compound, it will only require just an oxygen atom.

An ionic compound is formed due to the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions

A metal loses electrons to be gained by the non - metal and in the process they attract each other with a force.

 Barium has two valence electrons, to be stable, it loses the two;

 Oxygen has six valence electrons, to be stable it will gain two valence electrons to form an octet.

 So;

     One barium atom will successfully bind with One oxygen atom to form

               BaO

Using a molar heat of combustion of hexane (C6H14) –4163 kJ/mol, the mass of hexane required to increase the temperature of 1.76
pshichka [43]

Answer:

7.46 g.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the amount of heat needed to warm 5.64 kg of water from 21.0°C to 70.0°C using the relation:

<em>Q = m.c.ΔT,</em>

where, Q is the amount of heat absorbed by water (Q = ??? J).

m is the mass of water <u><em>(m: we will determine).</em></u>

c is the specific heat capacity of water (c = 4.186 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the temperature difference (final T - initial T) (ΔT =  70.0 °C - 21.0 °C = 49.0 °C).

  • To determine the mass of 1.76 L of water we can use the relation:

mass = density x volume.

density of water = 1000 g/L & V = 1.76 L.

∴ mass = density x volume = (1000 g/L)(1.76 L) = 1760.0 g.

∵ Q = m.c.ΔT

<em>∴ Q = m.c.ΔT </em>= (1760.0 g)(4.186 J/g.°C)(49.0 °C) = 360483.2 J ≅ 360.4832 kJ.

  • As mentioned in the problem the molar heat of combustion of hexane is - 4163.0 kJ/mol.

<em>Using cross multiplication we can get the no. of moles of hexane that are needed to be burned to release 360.4832 kJ:</em>

Combustion of 1.0 mole of methane releases → - 4163.0 kJ.

Combustion of ??? mole of methane releases → - 360.4832 kJ.

∴ The no. of moles of hexane that are needed to be burned to release 360.4832 kJ = (- 360.4832 kJ)(1.0 mol)/(- 4163.0 kJ) = 0.0866 mol.

  • Now, we can get the mass of hexane that must be burned to warm 1.76 L of water from 21.0°C to 70.0°C:

<em>∴ mass = (no. of moles needed)(molar mass of hexane)</em> = (0.0866 mol)(86.18  g/mol) = <em>7.46 g.</em>

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

\°C=5.8x10^3\°C

\°F=1.1x10^4\°F

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the calculation of the temperature in degree Celsius we subtract 273.15 to the given temperature in kelvins:

\°C=6100-273.15\\\\\°C=5.8x10^3\°C

Next, by applying the following equation we compute it in degree Fahrenheit:

\°F=(5.8x10^{3}*9/5) + 32\\\\\°F=1.1x10^4\°F

Clearly, since the initial unit has two significant figures the computed units also show two significant figures.

Regards.
