When monovalent cation (X) binds to divalent anion (Y) it will form

Chemistry
1 answer:
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]2 years ago
8 0

When a monovalent cation X binds to a divalent anion Y, a compound with the formula X_2Y would be formed.

A monovalent cation is an atom that has lost an electron. Hence, such cation has a single positive charge. A monovalent cation X will, thus, be X^+

A divalent anion is an atom that has gained two electrons. Such anion has 2 negative charge. Thus, divalent Y would be Y^2^-

Since Y is a divalent anion, it requires 2 electrons in order to successfully bind with another charged atom, a cation to be specific. Thus, two of  X^+ would be required to successfully bind  Y^2^-

   Y^2^- + X^+ + X^+ ----> X_2Y

Calculate the enthalpy for this reaction: 2C(s) + H2(g) ---&gt; C2H2(g) ΔH° = ??? kJ Given the following thermochemical equation
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The enthalpy for given reaction is 232 kilo Joules.

Explanation:

C_2H_2(g) + \frac{5}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g) + H_2O(l), \Delta H^o_{1} = -1,123 kJ...[1]

C(s) + O_2(g)\rightarrow CO2(g), \Delta H^o_{2} = -340 kJ..[2]

H_2(g) + \frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(l) ,\Delta H^o_{3} = -211 kJ..[3]

2C(s) + H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_2(g),\Delta H^o_{4} =?..[4]

2 × [2] + [3] - [1] ( Using Hess's law)

\Delta H^o_{4}=2\times \Delta H^o_{2}+\Delta H^o_{3} - \Delta H^o_{1}

\Delta H^o_{4}=2\times (-340 kJ) + (-211 kJ) - (-1,123 kJ)

\Delta H^o_{4}=232 kJ

The enthalpy for given reaction is 232 kilo Joules.

If you can help answer the question if you can't then don't
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Yes its both a physical and chemical change heres why.

When heated , the wax melts to form a liquid wax . The liquid wax then becomes a solid wax upon cooling ( Physical change )

When the candle is lit, the wax near the tip of the candle will melt . The wick then absorbs the liquid wax . The liquid wax then vapourizes due to the heat emitting from the flame . The wax vapour then burns to give off a black substance ( what we will to as CO₂ , soot ) , heat and water vapour

(Chemical change )
