Why can't polyatomic ions ever stand alone?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Basile [38]3 years ago

The prefix "poly-" means "many," and "atomic" refers to atoms, so a polyatomic ion is made of 2+ atoms covalently bonded together. These ions are charged, which is why they can never stand alone.

Find the mass of 4.5 moles of H3PO4
Contact [7]

Hey there!

H₃PO₄

Find molar mass.

H: 3 x 1.008 = 3.024

P: 1 x 30.97 = 30.97

O: 4 x 16 = 64

---------------------------------

                  97.994 grams

The mass of 1 mole of H₃PO₄ is 97.994 grams.

We have 4.5 moles.

97.994 x 4.5 = 440

The mass of 4.5 moles of H₃PO₄ is 440 grams.

Hope this helps!

Identify the type of reaction described in the sentence below. then, write a chemical equation. be sure to specify the states of
natulia [17]

Answer : The type of reaction described in the sentence is Synthesis or Combination

Explanation :

The balanced equation for the reaction between Phosphorous and Oxygen gas can be written as

4P (s) + 5O_{2} (g) ------>  P_{4} O_{10}  (s)

From the above equation we can see that there are two different reactants ( P and O₂ ) which are combining with each other to give a single product.

This type of reaction is known as Combination or Synthesis.

A general form of Synthesis reaction is given below.

A + B ---->  AB

Here we can conclude that a synthesis / combination reaction is the one where 2 or more reactants combine together to give only one product .
