Answer:

There are two chloride ions for each calcium ion

Explanation:

The compound has to have an overall neutral charge. Meaning that the positive charges from calcium have to be canceled out by the negative charges of chlorine.

If there are two chloride ions for each calcium ion, the charges would cancel themselves out (2 * -1 would cancel out with +2).

Calculate the number of moles in 7.41 X 1017 atoms Ag.
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

1.23x10^-6 mole

Explanation:

A clear understanding of Avogadro's hypothesis proved that 1mole of any substance contains 6.02x10^23 atoms. This indicates that 1mole of Ag contains 6.02x10^23 atoms.

Now, 1f 1mole of Ag contains 6.02x10^23 atoms, then Xmol of Ag will contain 7.41x10^17 atoms i.e

Xmol of Ag = 7.41x10^17/6.02x10^23 = 1.23x10^-6 mole

Which is the correct name of a compound that is formed by Si and O? silicon dioxide silicon trioxygen disilicon dioxygen monosil
Flauer [41]

The correct is tricky, be careful. The right is silicon dioxyde (SiO2)

Silicon Oxides are written in the form SiOx, (0 <x <2), so:

there is no silicon trioxygen and disilicon dioxygen.

SiO is called silicon monoxide and not monosiicon oxygen, so this proposition is false.

All that remains is the silicon dioxide (SiO2) that is written correctly.

Silicon dioxide can be synthesized but also exists in abundance in nature. Silicon (Si) represents about 26% of the Earth's crust. Silica (SiO2), the natural form of silicon dioxide, accounts for about 60%.

What is the expected ionic charge when group VI elements participate in ionic bonds?
valina [46]
Group 6 elements usually have extra electrons to make give them an octet. So, they have 6 electrons to start and when they have an octet, they have 8.

We can find the charge by doing simple math 6 - 8 = -2

Answer is D)
