The chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.

<h3>Ionic compounds</h3>

Ionic compounds are compounds which are formed from the combination of negatively charged and positively charged ion.
Positively charged ions are formed by loss of electrons
Negatively-charged ions are formed from gain of electrons

<h3>Formation of ionic compounds</h3>

During the formation of the ionic compound between an ion X that has a charge of 2+ and ion Y has a charge of 1-, two negatively charged ions of Y are required to form a neutral ionic ionic compound when they react with X.

The chemical the formula of the ionic compound they form is as follows;

X²⁺ + 2Y⁻ ---> XY₂

Therefore, the chemical formula of the ionic compound is XY₂.

1) If the pressure on 2.6 liters of a gas at 860 Torr is increased to 1000 Torr,

LenKa [72]

2.24 liters is the volume of the gas if pressure is increased to 1000 Torr.

Explanation:

Data given:

Initial volume of the gas V1 = 2.6 liters

Initial pressure of the gas P1 = 860 Torr 1.13 atm

final pressure on the gas P2 = 1000 Torr 1.315 atm

final volume of the gas after pressure change V2 =?

From the data given above, the law used is :

Boyles Law equation:

P1V1 = P2V2

V2 = P1V1/P2

= 1.13 X 2.6/ 1.31

= 2.24 Liters

If the pressure is increased to 1000 Torr or 1.315 atm the volume changes to 2.24 liters. Initially the volume was 2.6 litres and the pressure was 860 torr.

How many grams of solute are needed to order to prepare 100.00 mL of a 0.1000 M solution of a compound with a molecular weight o

Troyanec [42]

The grams of solute are required.

The mass of solute is 3.5 g

c = Molarity = 0.1 M

M = Molar mass = 350 g/mol

V = Volume of solution = 100 mL = 0.1 L

n = Number of moles

m = Mass of solute

Molarity is given by
