The Calcium atom has 2 valence electrons but a Calcium ion will have no electrons because it is a cation ion. Meaning that there are more protons than electrons. Also, the normal calcium symbol is Ca but the calcium ion is Ca²⁺

I hope this wasn't too late

The permanent electric dipole moment of the water molecule 1H2O2 is 6.2 * 10-30 C m. What is the maximum possible torque on a wa
stellarik [79]

Answer:

3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

Explanation:  

When placed in an external electric filed, an electric dipole experiences a torque. and this torque is represented mathematically with the equation:

torque (τ) = dipole moment vector (P) x electric field vector (E)

τ = P. E . sin θ

where θ is the angle between the water molecule and the electric field, which in this case is 90° (because this is where the torque is maximum)

τ = 6.2x10⁻³⁰Cm . 5.0x10⁸ N/C . sin90

τ = 6.2x10⁻³⁰Cm . 5.0x10⁸ N/C . 1

solve for τ

τ = 3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

the maximum possible torque on the water molecule is therefore 3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

How many grams of barium sulfate, BaSO 4 , be precipitated when 2.25 moles of sodium sulfate , Na 2 SO 3 , reacts with an excess
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

525.1 g of BaSO₄ are produced.

Explanation:

The reaction of precipitation is:

Na₂SO₄ (aq) + BaCl₂ (aq) →  BaSO₄ (s) ↓  +  2NaCl (aq)

Ratio is 1:1. So 1 mol of sodium sulfate can make precipitate 1 mol of barium sulfate.

The excersise determines that the excess is the  BaCl₂.

After the reaction goes complete and, at 100 % yield reaction, 2.25 moles of BaSO₄ are produced.

We convert the moles to mass: 2.25 mol . 233.38 g/mol = 525.1 g

The precipitation's equilibrium is:

SO₄⁻² (aq)  +  Ba²⁺ (aq)  ⇄  BaSO₄ (s) ↓       Kps
