N = PV = (190 atm)(35 L) = 260 moles of gas RT (0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(315 K)
I think the correct answers are X2Y and X3Y, X2Y5 and X3Y5, and X4Y2 and X3Y,
for the following reason:
If you look at the combining masses of X and Y in
each of the two compounds,
The first compound contains 0.25g of X combined with
0.75g of Y
so the ratio (by mass) of X to Y = 1 : 3
The second compound contains 0.33 g of X combined with
0.67 g of Y
so the ratio (by mass) of X to Y = 1 : 2
Now, you suppose to prepare each of these two
compounds, starting with the same fixed mass of element Y ( I will choose 12g
of Y for an easy calculation!)
The first compound will then contain 4g of X and 12g
of Y
The second compound will then contain 6g of X and
12g of Y
<span>The ratio which combined
the masses of X and the fixed mass (12g) of Y
= 4 : 6
<span>or 2 : 3 </span>
So, the ratio of MOLES of X which combined with the
fixed amount of Y in the two compounds is also = 2 : 3 </span>
The two compounds given with the plausible formula must therefore contain
the same ratio.
<u>Answer:</u> Yes, metals and non-metals forms ionic bonds.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Ionic bond is defined as the bond which is formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another atom.
The atom which looses the electron is known as electropositive atom and the atom which gains the electron is known as electronegative atom. This bond is usually formed between a metal and a non-metal.
<u>For Example:</u> Formation of sodium chloride
Sodium is a metal and is the 11th element of periodic table having electronic configuration of ![[Ne]3s^1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E1)
To form 
ion, this element will loose 1 electron.
Chlorine is a non-metal and is the 17th element of periodic table having electronic configuration of ![[Ne]3s^23p^5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E23p%5E5)
.
To form 
ion, this element will gain 1 electron.
By criss-cross method, the oxidation state of the ions gets exchanged and they form the subscripts of the other ions. This results in the formation of a neutral compound.
So, the compound formed between sodium and chlorine atom is NaCl
Hence, metals and non-metals forms ionic bonds.
