Answer:

it is called an ion

Explanation:

if it gains electrons then it is an anion

if it gains protons it is a cation

typically non metals are anions and metals are cations

In a lab experiment 80.0 g of ammonia [NH3] and 120 g of oxygen are placed in a reaction vessel. At the end of the reaction 72.2

valentinak56 [21]

The percent yield of the reaction : 89.14%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction of Ammonia and Oxygen in a lab :

4 NH₃ (g) + 5 O₂ (g) ⇒ 4 NO(g)+ 6 H₂O(g)

mass NH₃ = 80 g

mol NH₃ (MW=17 g/mol):

$\dfrac{80}{17}=4.706$

mass O₂ = 120 g

mol O₂(MW=32 g/mol) :

$\tt \dfrac{120}{32}=3.75$

Mol ratio of reactants(to find limiting reatants) :

$\tt \dfrac{4.706}{4}\div \dfrac{3.75}{5}=1.1765\div 0.75\rightarrow O_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)$

mol of H₂O based on O₂ as limiting reactants :

mol H₂O :

$\tt \dfrac{6}{5}\times 3.75=4.5$

mass H₂O :

4.5 x 18 g/mol = 81 g

The percent yield :

$\tt \%yield=\dfrac{actual}{theoretical}\times 100\%\\\\\%yield=\dfrac{72.2}{81}\times 100\%=89.14\%$

Which pair of elements form an ionic bond with each other?

kherson [118]

1) KCl
Potassium Chloride is an ionic bond because it exists between a metal and a nonmetal. The Potassium ion is a cation, carrying a +1 charge; the Chlorine is an anion, carrying a -1 charge.

Which of the following is the requirement for the intramolecular Sn2 reaction (intramolecular William Ether Synthesis) to occur

balandron [24]

Answer:

D. Anti-periplanar

Explanation:

In the second step of the intramolecular William Ether Synthesis mechanism (figure 1) we will have the attack of the negative charge of the oxygen to the carbon bond to the Br. At the same time the Br leaves, so a bond would be broken (the C-Br bond) and a bond would be formed (the C-O bond).

Now, this process can happen only if the attack and the leaving group has an anti configuration (figure 2). In an anti configuration the nucleophile and the leaving group would have opposite directions.
