Answer:An oxygen atom usually has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons. Looking at the periodic table, oxygen has atomic number 8 and atomic weight 15.999.
Explanation:
The mass of hydrated salt - 2.123 g
mass of anhydrous salt - 1.861 g
mass that has been reduced is the mass of water that has been heated and lost from the compound thereby making the salt anhydrous.
therefore mass of water lost - 2.123 - 1.861 = 0.262 g
number of moles of water lost - 0.262 g / 18 g/mol = 0.0146 mol
number of moles of salt - 1.861 g / 380.6 g/mol = 0.00490 mol
molar ratio of moles of water to moles of salt
molar ratio = 0.146 mol / 0.00490 mol = 2.98 rounded off to 3
for every 1 mol of salt there are 3 moles of water
therefore empirical formula - Cu₃(PO₄)₂.3H₂O
Answer:
They all contain switches
Calcium forms an ion with a positive 2 charge and chlorine forms an ion with a negative one charg, so the formula is <span>CaC<span>l2</span></span>
Group 1 metals and group 2 metals form positive ions by losing 1 and 2 electrons respectively. Non-metals in group 17 gain 1, group 16 gain 2 and group 15 gain 3. Elements which lose electrons form positive ions while elements that gain electrons form negative ions.
To write a formula, you must balance charges so the overall charge is zero. A simple way to do this is to swap the # of the ion's charge and make it the subscript of the other ion. However, leave off the number 1 and reduce to lowest whole number ratio.
Answer: 1.997 M
Explanation:
molarity = moles of solute/liters of solution or 
first we have to find our moles of solute (mol), which you can find by dividing the mass of solute by molar mass of solute
mass of solute: 92 g
molar mass of solute: 46.08 g/mol
let's plug it in:
next, we plug it into our original equation:
