What is the correct formula for combining Mg2+ and Br1+
1 answer:
Answer: The correct formula is
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 cation and bromine
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
.
The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.

-20.16 KJ of heat are released by the reaction of 25.0 g of Na2O2.
Explanation:
Given:
mass of Na2O2 = 25 grams
atomic mass of Na2O2 = 78 gram/mole
number of mole =
=
=0. 32 moles
The balanced equation for the reaction:
2 Na2O2(s) + 2 H2O(l) → 4 NaOH(aq) + O2(g) ∆Hο = −126 kJ
It can be seen that 126 KJ of energy is released when 2 moles of Na2O2 undergoes reaction.
similarly 0.3 moles of Na2O2 on reaction would give:
=
x =
= -20.16 KJ
Thus, - 20.16 KJ of energy will be released.
Below is the distribution of given elements and additional elements in their respective bins.
Iron, Magnesium, Aluminium, Calcium, Chromium and Indium are classified as Metals due to their hardness, conduction of current and heat, Solid state, formation of metallic bonding and prefers to form cations e.t.c
Oxygen, Neon and Bromine are classified as non-metals. Non-metals are mostly gases except for Bromine. They are highly volatile and prefers to form anions.
Semimetals are those metals which have both properties of metals and non-metals and are also called as metalloids.
