Name two events involving electrons that can result in the formation of chemical bonds between atoms.
Alona [7]

Explanation:

Two events involving electrons are gain and loss of electrons.

When there is gain or loss of electrons between two atoms then it results in the formation of ionic bond.

Whereas when there is sharing of electrons between two atoms then it results in the formation of covalent bond.

Therefore, the chemical bonds formed can be ionic or covalent bonds.

Determine the empirical and molecular formula for chrysotile asbestos. Chrysotile has the following percent composition: 28.03%
nlexa [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The empirical and molecular formula of chrysotile is Mg_3Si_2H_3O_4 and Mg_6Si_4H_6O_{16}

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Percentage of Mg = 28.03 %

Percentage of Si = 21.60 %

Percentage of H = 1.16 %

Percentage of O = 49.21 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of Mg = 28.03 g

Mass of Si = 21.60 g

Mass of H = 1.16 g

Mass of O = 49.21 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Magnesium = \frac{\text{Given mass of Magnesium}}{\text{Molar mass of Magnesium}}=\frac{28.03g}{24g/mole}=1.17moles

Moles of Silicon = \frac{\text{Given mass of Silicon}}{\text{Molar mass of Silicon}}=\frac{21.06g}{28g/mole}=0.752moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{1.16g}{1g/mole}=1.16moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{49.21g}{16g/mole}=3.07moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.752 moles.

For Magnesium = \frac{1.17}{0.752}=1.5

For Silicon = \frac{0.752}{0.752}=1

For Hydrogen = \frac{1.16}{0.752}=1.5

For Oxygen = \frac{3.07}{0.485}=4.08\approx 4

To convert the mole ratios into whole numbers, we multiply individual mole ratios by 2

Mole ratio of Magnesium = (2 × 1.5) = 3

Mole ratio of Silicon = (2 × 1) = 2

Mole ratio of Hydrogen = (2 × 1.5) = 3

Mole ratio of Oxygen = (2 × 4) = 8

  • <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of Mg : Si : H : O = 3 : 2 : 3 : 8

The empirical formula for the given compound is Mg_3Si_2H_3O_8

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 520.8 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = [(24 × 3) + (28 × 2) + (1 × 3) + (16 × 8)] = 259 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

n=\frac{520.8g/mol}{259g/mol}=2

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

Mg_{(3\times 2)}Si_{(2\times 2)}H_{(3\times 2)}O_{(8\times 2)}=Mg_6Si_4H_6O_{16}

Hence, the empirical and molecular formula of chrysotile is Mg_3Si_2H_3O_4 and Mg_6Si_4H_6O_{16}
