Show how the total charge sodium oxide is zero

Chemistry
1 answer:
coldgirl [10]4 years ago
6 0
First, the symbol for sodium oxide is Na₂O

Each Na (sodium) has a charge of 1+, and each O has a charge of 2-  :

Na₂¹⁺O²⁻

There are two Na's, however, and each one is 1+, however, so the Na₂ has a total charge of 2+.  Because of this, the 2+ from the 2 Na's and the 2- from the O cancel each other out to make 0.

Can you explain why the elements on the right hand side of the periodic table receive electrons instead of giving them up?
aleksandrvk [35]

Due to the Octet Rule ...

Elements on the right side of the Periodic Table gain electrons in order to get the 8 valence electrons and form negative ions.

And elements on the left side of the Periodic Table lose electrons in order and form positive ions.

The reaction:L-glutarmate + pyruvate → α-ketoglutarate + L-alanine is catalyzed by the enzyme L-glutamate-pyruvate aminotransfer
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Reaction Quotient, Kq = {[a-ketoglutarate]x[L-alanine]}/{[L-glutamate]x[pyruvate]}

or, Kq = {(1.6x10-2)x(6.25x10∧-3)}/{(3x10∧-5)x(3.3x10-4)} = 1.01 x 10∧4

Since Kq > Keqb ; therefore the reaction will proceed in the backward direction, in order words the reaction will not occur in forward direction. i.e formation of reactants will be favored.

How to keep pipes from freezing during power outage?.
Maurinko [17]

Answer: <em>Running water, even at a trickle, helps prevent pipes from freezing. If you decide to use fuel-burning equipment, such as a kerosene heater, ensure it is vented to outside and kept clear of any vents. Keep garage doors closed if there are water supply lines in the garage.</em>
