Answer:

A cation is formed when a metal ion loses a valence electron while an anion is formed when a non-metal gains a valence electron. They both achieve a more stable electronic configuration through this exchange.

a mixture of carbon and sulfur has a mass of 9.0 g. complete combustion with excess o2 gives 22.5 g of a mixture of co2 and so2.
photoshop1234 [79]
S + O2 → SO2 
<span>z / (32.0655 g S/mol) x (1 mol SO2 / 1 mol S) x (64.0638 g SO2/mol) = (1.9979 z) g SO2 </span>

<span>C + O2 → CO2 </span>
<span>(9.0-z) / (12.01078 g C/mol) x (1 mol CO2 / 1 mol C) x (44.00964 g CO2/mol) = (32.9776 - 3.66418 z) g CO2 </span>

<span>Add the two masses of SO2 and CO2 and set them equal to the amount given in the problem: </span>
<span>(1.9979 z) + (32.9776 - 3.66418 z) = 27.9 </span>
<span>Solve for z algebraically: </span>
<span>z = 3.0 g S</span>

How many moles of nitrogen gas are there in 16.8 L of this gas at STP?
sweet-ann [11.9K]
According to Avogadro's Law, same volume of any gas at standard temperature and pressure will occupy same volume. And one mole of any Ideal gas occupies 22.4 dm³ (1 dm³ = 1 L).

Data Given:

                  n = moles = ?
                  V = Volume = 16.8 L

Solution:
               
As 22.4 L volume is occupied by one mole of gas then the 16.8 L of this gas will contain....

                           = ( 1 mole × 16.8 L) ÷ 22.4 L
                    
                           = 0.75 moles

Result:
           
16.8 L of Nitrogen gas will contain 0.75 moles at standard temperature and pressure.

On a summer day, you take a road trip through Death Valley, California, in an antique car. You start out at a temperature of 21°
MrRissso [65]
<span>There is only one formula to use and we should assume ideal gas. This equation is: PV=nRT. For the following questions manipulate this equation to get the answer.
 1. n = PV/RT = (249*1000 Pa)(15.6 L)(1 m^3/1000 L)/(8.314 Pa-m^3/mol-K))(21+273) = 1.59 mol
 2. P = nRT/V = (1.59)(8.314)(51+273)/(15.6/1000)(1000) = 274.55 kPa
 3. Since the answer in #2 is more than 269 kPa, then the tires will likely burst. 4. Reduce pressure way below the limit 269 kPa.</span>
