Chemistry
2 answers:
alexandr402 [8]2 years ago

Answer:

2

Explanation:

In calcium oxide, the calcium is electropositive in nature and to fulfil its octet, the calcium atoms lose two electrons to form the calcium cations whose valency is 2, hence the corresponding anion, i.e. the oxide anion must also have valency 2 to balance the positive charge on the calcium cation.

Lets look out the Electronic configuration of Calcium(Ca)

  • Z=20

EC:-

\\ \rm\longmapsto 1s^22s^22p^63s^2

  • Valency is 2

A substance is found to consist of 1.900g of silver, 0.250g of nitrogen, and 0.850g of oxygen. what is the percent by mass of ox
Galina-37 [17]
The  percentage  by mass  of  oxygen  in  the  compound

find  the total  mass=(  1.900+  0250 +0.850) =  3
the  percentage  mass  mass of  oxgyen/total  mass  x100

that  is  (0.850/3)  x100=28.33%

Separating techniques - Chromatography
vodomira [7]

The method that can be used to separate the mixture is chromatography.

<h3>What is chromatography?</h3>

"Chromatography" is obtained form a Greek word which literarily means, color writing. It is a method of separation which is common in separating a mixture of pigments.

To obtain the colors used, two solvents are mixed and the sample ink is dissolved in the solvents then spotted on a thin layer and put into a TLC chamber then the chromatogram is allowed to develop.

The various components of the pigment will appear on the chromatogram and can be identified using spectrophotometry. The Rf values of each component can also be used to identify it.'
