Answer:

Phenolphthalein is often used as an indicator in acid–base titrations. For this application, it turns colorless in acidic solutions and pink in basic solutions. ... It is a weak acid, which can lose H+ ions in solution.

Chemical formula: C20H14O4

GHS precautionary statements: P201, P281

Atoms are attracted to each other because____

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Opposite charges attract therefore the electrons of one atom would be attracted by the nucleus (which contains protons). This heavily relies on a property called electronegativity. Which deals with the level of attraction a nucleus (the protons in the nucleus) have for electrons of other atoms.

If 5.58 g of iron reacts with sulfur to produce 8.79 g of iron sulfide, what is the mass of reacting sulfur? A) 3215 B) 14:37 C)

gogolik [260]

Answer: A) 3.21 g

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side.

$Fe+S\rightarrow FeS$

We are given:

Mass of iron = 5.58 g

Mass of iron sulphide = 8.79 g

Mass of sulphur = x g

Total mass on reactant side = 5.58 + x

Total mass on product side = 8.79 g

Applying law of conservation of mass, we get:

$5.58+x=8.79\\\\x=3.21g$

Hence, the mass of reacting sulfur is 3.21 g.

Name the following ionic compounds, keeping in mind that a transition metal cation must include its charge. ____________________

Lilit [14]

Answer :

(a) The name for $TiO_2$ is titanium(IV) oxide.

(b) The name for $BaCl_2$ is barium chloride.

(c) The name for $CuCl_3$ is copper(III) chloride.

(d) The name for $KI$ is potassium iodide.

(e) The name for $SrCl_2$ is strontium chloride.

(f) The name for $CuBr_2$ is copper(II) bromide.

Explanation :

Ionic compound : It is defined as the compound which is formed when electron gets transferred from one atom to another atom.

Ionic compound are usually formed when a metal reacts with a non-metal.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive ion is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.

3. In case of transition metals, the oxidation state are written in roman numerals in bracket in-front of positive ions.

(a) $TiO_2$

$TiO_2$ is an ionic compound because titanium element is a metal and oxygen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on tin is (+4) and the the charge on oxygen is (-2). Thus, the name for $TiO_2$ is titanium(IV) oxide.

(b) $BaCl_2$

$BaCl_2$ is an ionic compound because barium element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on barium is (+2) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for $BaCl_2$ is barium chloride.

(c) $CuCl_3$

$CuCl_3$ is an ionic compound because copper element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on copper is (+3) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for $CuCl_3$ is copper(III) chloride.

(d) $KI$

$KI$ is an ionic compound because potassium element is a metal and iodine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on potassium is (+1) and the the charge on iodine is (-1). Thus, the name for $KI$ is potassium iodide.

(e) $SrCl_2$

$SrCl_2$ is an ionic compound because strontium element is a metal and chlorine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on strontium is (+2) and the the charge on chlorine is (-1). Thus, the name for $SrCl_2$ is strontium chloride.

(f) $CuBr_2$

$CuBr_2$ is an ionic compound because copper element is a metal and bromine element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The charge on copper is (+2) and the the charge on bromine is (-1). Thus, the name for $CuBr_2$ is copper(II) bromide.

What is a substance consisting of two or more elements?

bixtya [17]

When two distinct elements are chemically combined—i.e., chemical bonds form between their atoms—the result is called a chemical compound<span>. Most elements on Earth bond with other elements to form chemical compounds, such as sodium (Na) and Chloride (Cl), which combine to form table salt (NaCl).

Hope this helps.</span>

Determine the chemical formulas for the two compounds below. (Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen).

tester [92]

Remember that any intersection of lines is a C, and that the number of hydrogens attached are the necessary to complet the 4 bonds.

1) CH3 - CH (OH) - CH (CH3) -CH3

2) CH3 - O - CH(CH3)-CH2 - CH3

I have used the parenthesis to indicate that the radical inside is in other branch, bonded by a single line -
