Answer:
In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O
Explanation:
Let's make some rules of three, to solve this problem:
1 mol of ethanol has 2 moles of C, 6 moles of H, and 1 mol of oxygen
Therefore, 0.75 moles of ethanol must have 0.75 mol of oyxgen
Let's convert the moles to mass → 0.75 mol . 16 g/ 1 mol = 12 g
1 mol of formic acid has 2 moles of H, 1 mol of C and 2 mol of oxygen
0.60 moles of formic acid must have (0.6 .2) / 1 = 1.2 mol of O
If we convert the amount to mass → 1.2 mol . 16 g/ 1mol = 19.2 g
1 mol of water has 1 mol of oyxgen
Therefore, we have 1 mol of oxygen with a mass of 16 g.
In conclussion, 0.60 moles of HCOOH contains the greatest mass of O
Answer:
- <u><em>Magnesium and fluorine.</em></u>
Explanation:
<em>Ionic compounds</em> are formed by the electrostatic attraction of cations and anions.
Cations, positive ions, are formed when atoms lose electrons, and anions, negative ions, are formed when atoms gain electrons.
When two different atoms have similar atraction for electrons (electronegativity) they will not donate to nor catch electrons from each other, so cations and anions will not be formed. Instead, the atoms would prefer to share electrons forming covalent bonds to complete their outermost shell (octet rule).
Then, in order to form ionic compounds the electronegativities have to substantially different. This situation does not happen between two nonmetal elements, which nitrogen and sulfur are. Then, you can predict safely that nitrogen and sulfur will not form an ionic compound.
Ionic compounds, then require the electronegativity difference that exist between some metals and nonmetals. Being magnesium an alkaline earth metal, its electronegativity is very low. On the other hand, fluorine the first element of the group 17, has the highest electronegativity of all the elements.Thus magnesium and fluorine will have enough electronegativity difference to justify the exchange of electrons, forming ions and, consequently, ionic compounds.
