Answer:

If you're talking about a Sulfur ion, there are 13 electrons.

Explanation:

Sulfur originally had 16 electrons in its atom.

A charge of +3 means that sulfur must have lost 3 electrons, and therefore needs to gain back 3 electrons to achieve its atomic configuration.

Look at the diagram below , which shows gas particles in a container. If the piston was lowered, so that the size of the contain

raketka [301]

The pressure of the gas is expected to increase in accordance to Boyle's law.

<h3>What is Boyle's law?</h3>

Boyle's law states that, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.

By implication, when the piston is lowered and the volume of the gas is decreased, the pressure of the gas is expected to increase in accordance to Boyle's law.

Enter the formula for the compound cobalt(II) phosphate. Express your answer as a chemical formula.

alexira [117]

Answer:

$Co_3(PO_4)_2$

Explanation:

Naming of the ionic compounds:-

The name of the cation is written first and the the name of the anion is written after the name of the cation separated by single space.
The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written is '-ide'.
In case of transition metals, the oxidation state are written in roman numerals in bracket in front of positive ions.

Hence, given ionic compound:-

Cobalt(II) phosphate

So, Cobalt will have a positive charge of +2

Phosphate is $PO_4^{3-}$

So, the formula is :-

Co $PO_4^{3-}$

2 3

$Co_3(PO_4)_2$

What volume of benzene (C6H6, d= 0.88 g/mL, molar mass = 78.11 g/mol) is required to produce 1.5 x 103 kJ of heat according to t

Anton [14]

Answer:

We need 42.4 mL of benzene to produce 1.5 *10³ kJ of heat

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Density of benzene = 0.88 g/mL

Molar mass of benzene = 78.11 g/mol

Heat produced = 1.5 * 10³ kJ

Step 2: The balanced equation

2 C6H6(l) + 15 O2(g) → 12 CO2(g) + 6 H2O(g) ΔH°rxn = -6278 kJ

Step 3: Calculate moles of benzen

1.5 * 10³ kJ * (2 mol C6H6 / 6278 kJ) = 0.478 mol C6H6

Step 4: Calculate mass of benzene

Mass benzene : moles benzene * molar mass benzene

Mass benzene= 0.478 * 78.11 g

Mass of benzene = 37.34 grams

Step 5: Calculate volume of benzene

Volume benzene = mass / density

Volume benzene = 37.34 grams / 0.88g/mL

Volume benzene = 42.4 mL

We need 42.4 mL of benzene to produce 1.5 *10³ kJ of heat
