Answer:
B. the products have a smaller number of available energy microstates than the reactants.
Answer:
sodium sulfate
Explanation:
For naming an ionic compound with polyatomic anion, the metal is written first using its element name followed by name of the polyatomic anion. Therefore, the compound with Na+Na+ cation and SO2−4SO42− anion is named as sodium sulfate.
Answer:
1. The electronic configuration of X is: 1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
2. The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
3. The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given as: XY
Explanation:
For X to loss two electrons, it means X is a group 2 element. X can be any element in group 2. The electronic configuration of X is:
1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
To get the electronic configuration of the anion of element Y, let us find the configuration of element Y. This is done as follows:
Y receives two electrons from X to complete its octet. Therefore Y is a group 6 element. The electronic configuration of Y is given below
1s2 2s2 2p4
The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given below :
X^2+ + Y^2- —> XY
Their valency will cancel out thus forming XY
CuCl2+F2—>CuF2+Cl2.
This is a single replacement because there is one compound and one element. Picture Cu as ‘A’ Cl2 as ‘B’ and F2 as ‘C.’ So AB+C—>AC+B. A and B “broke up” and that resulted to A going with C to create the compound CuF2 leaving Cl2 alone.
