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

How would you test a colorless crystalline compound to determine if it was a hydrate?
Cloud [144]

A hydrate is a substance where in it contains water and other constituent elements. To know whether if that compound was a hydrate,you should record its mass, then put it in a test tube and heat it with a Bunsen burner. If the compound is a hydrate, the water in the compound will discharge in the form of water vapor. At the next 5-10 minutes, remove it in the test tube and weigh it up again. If the mass is now fewer, that means that there was water existing that has now evaporated, and the compound was a hydrate.

A total of 25.0 mL of 0.150 M potassium hydroxide (KOH) was required to neutralize 15.0 mL of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) of unknown c
Kamila [148]
We are told that KOH is being used to completely neutral H₂SO₄ according to the following reaction:

KOH + H₂SO₄ → H₂O + KHSO₄

If KOH can completely neutralize H₂SO₄, then there must be an equal amount of moles of each as they are in a 1:1 ratio:

0.025 L x 0.150 mol/L = .00375 mol KOH

0.00375 mol KOH x 1 mole H₂SO₄/1 mole KOH = 0.00375 mol H₂SO₄

We are told we have 15 mL of H₂SO₄ initially, so now we can find the original concentration:

0.00375 mol / 0.015 L = 0.25 mol/L

The concentration of H₂SO₄ being neutralized is 0.25 M.

Explain the Anchoring Phenomenon (summary)
Virty [35]
An anchoring phenomenon anchors all of the learning within a unit. So, it is a unit level event that the classroom is trying to make sense of as they engage in a series of lessons.

Since the questions the students ask about the anchor drive the learning within the unit, the anchor should be complex and require an understanding of several big science ideas to explain.

At strategic moments, the class revisits the anchoring phenomenon to review their initial questions to see which they have answered, which they are making progress on, and what new questions they may have to help us continue learning about the phenomenon.

Throughout the unit, the classroom and each student should be given opportunities to share their thinking and how it relates to the anchoring phenomenon.
