What is the correct formula for combining Mg2+ and Br1+

Chemistry
1 answer:
True [87]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: The correct formula is MgBr_2

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here magnesium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as Mg^{2+} cation and bromine Br^{-} is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral MgBr_2.

The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.

An actacide tablet containing Mg(OH)2 (MM = 58.3g / (mol)) is titrated with a 0.100 M solution of HNO3. The end point is determi
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

0.0583g

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

2HNO3(aq) + Mg(OH)2(aq) -------> Mg(NO3)2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

From the question, number of moles of HNO3 reacted= concentration × volume

Concentration of HNO3= 0.100 M

Volume of HNO3 = 20.00mL

Number of moles of HNO3= 0.100 × 20/1000

Number of moles of HNO3 = 2×10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

2 moles of HNO3 reacts with 1 mole of Mg(OH)2

2×10^-3 moles reacts with 2×10^-3 moles ×1/2 = 1 ×10^-3 moles of Mg(OH)2

But

n= m/M

Where;

n= number of moles of Mg(OH)2

m= mass of Mg(OH)2

M= molar mass of Mg(OH)2

m= n×M

m= 1×10^-3 moles × 58.3 gmol-1

m = 0.0583g

If the copper is drawn into wire whose diameter is 9.50 mm, how many feet of copper can be obtained from the ingot? The density
ankoles [38]

Answer:

The length of the wire = 352.66 feet.

Explanation:

A copper refinery produces a copper ingot weighing 150 lb. If the copper is drawn into wire whose diameter is 9.50 mm, how many feet of copper can be obtained from the ingot? The density of copper is 8.94 g/cm3. (Assume that the wire is a cylinder whose volume is V = πr2h, where r is the radius and h is its height or length.)

Step 1: Convert lb to kg

150 lb = 68.0389 kg

Step 2: Calculate volume of copper

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 68038.9 grams / 8.94 g/cm³

Volume = 7610.6 cm³ Cu

Step 3: Calculate length of wire

The diameter of the wire is 9.50 mm, so the radius is half of that (4.75 mm), or 0.475 cm.

The total "volume" of the wire is πr²h = (π)*(0.475 cm)²(h) = 0.708h = 7610 cm^3

7610 = 0.708h

h = 10749 cm = length of wire

The length of the wire = 352.66 feet.

A sample of argon gas has a volume of 73 mL at a pressure of 1.20 atm and a temperature of 112 degrees Celsius. What is the fina
NeX [460]

Answer:

V₂ → 106.6 mL

Explanation:

We apply the Ideal Gases Law to solve the problem. For the two situations:

P . V = n . R . T

Moles are still the same so → P. V / R. T = n

As R is a constant, the formula to solve this is: P . V / T

P₁ . V₁ / T₁ = P₂ .V₂ / T₂   Let's replace data:

(1.20 atm . 73mL) / 112°C = (0.55 atm . V₂) / 75°C

((87.6 mL.atm) / 112°C) . 75°C = 0.55 atm . V₂

58.66 mL.atm = 0.55 atm . V₂

58.66 mL.atm / 0.55 atm = V₂ → 106.6 mL

1. Which of the following indicates the number of protons?
Leokris [45]

Answer:

a)Atomic number

Explanation:

Element symbol signifies the element. For eg, Na is sodium. Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons of an atom of an element. Atomic mass is the molar mass of the given element. Finally, atomic number is unique to each element because it signifies the number of protons of that element. EACH ELEMENT has their UNIQUE number of protons. For eg, atomic number of hydrogen is 1 because it has 1 proton, NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS ATOMIC NUMBER 1 because NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS 1 proton.
