The chemical reaction would be written as:
2HgO = 2Hg + O2
We use this reaction and the amount of the reactant to calculate for the moles of oxygen produced. THen, we use avogadro's number to convert it to molecules. We do as follows:
12.5 g HgO (1 mol / 216.59 g) (1 mol O2 / 2 mol HgO) ( 6.022x10^23 molecules O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 1.74x10^22 molecules O2 produced
According to the chemical equation, the ratio between Ca and HCl for a complete reaction is 1:2. The moles of Ca can be calculated by mass/molar mass, thus 60.0 g/40 g/mole = 1.5 mole. So the moles of HCl in the solution is 1.5mole*2 = 3 mole.
So the volume of HCl solution = Moles of HCl/ concentration of HCl = 3 mole/ 1.25 M = 2.4 L = 2400 mL
Answer:
Ionic bonds are formed through the exchange of valence electrons between atoms, typically a metal and a nonmetal. The loss or gain of valence electrons allows ions to obey the octet rule and become more stable. Therefore, ions combine in ways that neutralize their charges.
