Suppose that in an ionic compound, "m" represents a metal that could form more than one type of ion. in the formula mf2 , the ch
geniusboy [140]
F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2

If the concentration of the stock (provided) Cu(NH3)42 was 0.041 M, what concentration will the Cu2 be in beaker?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

[Cu^{2+}]=0.041 M

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the molarity of a solution is defined in terms of the moles of the solute and the volume of solution, given that the concentration of Cu(NH₃)₄²⁺ is 0.041 M, and there is only one copper atom per Cu(NH₃)₄²⁺ ion, we can compute the concentration of Cu²⁺ as shown below:

[Cu^{2+}]=0.041\frac{molCu(NH_3)_4^{2+}}{L}*\frac{1molCu^{2+}}{1molCu(NH_3)_4^{2+}} =0.041 \frac{molCu(NH_3)_4^{2+}}{L}

[Cu^{2+}]=0.041 M

Best regards!

Can someone help me please and please show work
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Average of the trial is: 288.50 C

Percent Error: 3.83%

Explanation:

(291 + 287 + 295 + 281) : 4 = 288.50 C

Average: 288.50 C

Percent Error: {(300 - 288.50) : 300} x 100%  = 3.83 %

A group of students working in a high school chemistry lab believe they have discovered a new element! How exciting? Upon furthe
spayn [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Information given about the element:

Number of protons = 74

Number of neutrons = 110

For the atomic number:

Neutral atoms such as this one would have their atomic number to be the same with their number of electrons and protons:

     atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

The atomic number would therefore be 74

For the mass number:

The mass of an atom is centrally concentrated within the tiny nucleus. The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom. Protons and neutrons are nuclear particles and are called nucleons:

     Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons = 74+110=184

Is this a new element?

From the peroidic table, tungsten(W) perfectly fits this description of the atom. It has an atomic number of 74 and a mass number of approximately 184. The element is not a new element.

Is it solid, liquid, or gas?

The element is a hard metallic solid. It is a classified as a transition metal on the periodic table. Transition metals have very unique metals and are mostly solids.
