They have to form a chemical bond in order to brake them down first
From the periodic table:
molar mass of Sn = 118.71 grams
molar mass of F = 18.99 grams
This means that:
molar mass of SnF2 = 118.71 + 2(18.99) = 156.69 grams
Therefore, 156.69 grams of SnF2 contains 37.98 grams of F. To know the amount of F in 36.5 grams of the compound, we will simply do a cross multiplication as follows:
mass of F = (36.6 x 37.98) / 156.69 = 8.847 grams
B) Mg is the alkaline earth metal w/12 protons so following the periodic table to the halogen in the same period is
Cl: Chlorine
C) The Neutral noble has w/ 18 electrons is argon so the metal in the same row is
Na: Sodium
Also water H2O is made of H+ and OH- ions. so when an acidic substance is added to water the concentration of H+ ions increase.
