The pH of a solution is 6.5 . What Is the pOH

Predict the products of La(s) + O2(aq) ->

mina [271]

Answer:

i. La (s) + O2 (g) => LaO2 (s)

ii. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O (s)

III. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O3 (s)

Explanation:

Hello there!

When you are given such a problem for completing the chemical equations, what you have to understand is that metals are found in groups I, II and III. While Oxygen is a group VI element.

From the above question I have considered that my La(s), solid is either Sodium (Na) - group I, Magnesium - group II and Aluminum - group III.

In a reaction, there is exchange of electrons given by their oxidation numbers (I, II and III - for our metals above)

The chemical equations are thus;

i. Na (s) + O2 (g) => NaO (s)

ii. Mg (s) + O2 (g) => Mg2O (s)

iii. Al (s) + O2 (g) => Al2O3 (s)

Relate this to the problem and it will be;

i. La (s) + O2 (g) => LaO2 (s)

ii. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O (s)

III. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O3 (s)

I hope this helps you to understand better. Enjoy your studies

What information is need to calculate the percent composition of a compound?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Molecular formula

Explanation:

Molecular formula in the first place is required to understand which compound we have. We then should refer to the periodic table and find the molecular weight for each atom. Adding individual molecular weights together would yield the molar mass of a compound.

Then, dividing the total molar mass of a specific atom by the molar mass of a compound and converting into percentage will provide us with the percentage of that specific atom.

E. g., calculate the percent composition of water:

molecular formula is $H_2O$ ;
calculate its molar mass: [tex]M = 2M_H + M_O = 2\cdot 1.00784 g/mol + 16.00 g/mol = 18.016 g/mol;
find the percentage of hydrogen: [tex]\omega_H = \frac{2\cdot 1.00784 g/mol}{18.016 g/mol}\cdot 100 \% = 11.19 %;
find the percentage of oxygen: [tex]\omega_O = \frac{16.00 g/mol}{18.016 g/mol}\cdot 100 \% = 88.81 %.

For which of the following elements would the most common ion be expected to have a larger radius than that of its corresponding

Andre45 [30]

Answer: The ion that is expected to have a larger radius than the corresponding atom is chlorine.

Explanation:

There are two types of ions:

Cations: They are formed when an atom looses its valence electrons. They are positive ions.
Anions: They are formed when an atom gain electrons in its outermost shell. They are negative ions.

For positive ions, the removal of electron increases the nuclear charge for an outermost electron because the outermost electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus. So, the effective nuclear charge increases for cations and thus, the size of the cation will be smaller than that of the corresponding atom.

For negative ions, the addition of electron decreases the nuclear charge for an outermost electron because the outermost electrons are less strongly attracted by the nucleus. So, the effective nuclear charge decreases for anions and thus, the size of the anion will be larger than that of the corresponding atom.

For the given options:

Option a: Chlorine

Chlorine gains 1 electron and form $Cl^-$ ion
