Explain how a metal and a non-metal form an ION when they chemically react together.

Answer:

When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms, forming ions. The resulting compound is called an ionic compound. In all of these reactions, the metal atoms give electrons to the non-metal atoms.

Write a net ionic equation to show that acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), hc9h7o4, behaves as a brønsted-lowry acid in water.
Thepotemich [5.8K]
By definition, Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor in the acid-base neutralization reaction. When a weak acid like acetylsalicylic acid is reacted with water, the water here acts as the Bronsted-Lowry base. This is possible because water has properties of amphoterism - can act as an acid or base. In this case, acetylsalicylic acid would have to donate its H+ atom to water, so that it would yield a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. The complete net ionic reaction is shown in the picture.

So, in the reaction, the products yield are the acetylsalicylate ion and the hydronium ion.

Sulfur burns in the air to form 33.6L of sulfur dioxide. (S = 32, O =16, 64g of sulfur dioxide has 22.4L, 32g of oxygen has 22.4
ivolga24 [154]

The mass of oxygen reacted/required in this reaction is obtained as 48g.

<h3>What is stoichiometry?</h3>

The term stoichiometry has to do with mass- volume or mass - mole relationship which ultimately depends on the balanced reaction equation.

Now, we have the reaction; S + O2 ------>SO2

If 1 mole of sulfur dioxide contains 22.4 L

x moles of sulfur dioxide contains 33.6L

x = 1.5 moles of sulfur dioxide.

Since the reaction is 1:1, the number if moles of oxygen required/reacted is 1.5 moles.

Mass of oxygen required/reacted = 1.5 moles * 32 g/mol = 48g
