The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Electrovalency is characterized with the transferring of one or more electrons from one atom to another together with the formation of ions and as well as the number of positive and negative charges.
The Lewis and Langmuir theory of electrovalency (and as well as Kossel's) is dealing with Ionic bonds.
Lewis: electron-pair sharing, octet rule, Lewis Symbols or StructureLangmuir: introduced term "covalent" bond, and popularized Lewis's ideas
<span>The Lewis-Langmuir electron-pair or covalent bond is referred as the homopolar bond, where the complete transfer of electrons give rise to ionic, or electrovalent bond (1) through attraction of opposite charges.</span>
We need to keep in mind that the compound is neutral.
H2SO3
2(+1)+S+3(-2)=0 (since its neutral)
2+S-6=0
S-4=0
S=4
Therefore the oxidation number for sulfur is +4.
Answer:
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
Explanation:
The decomposition reaction always make two compounds from one.
The products always have simpler chemical structure, originated from a determined compound. This can happens spontaneously or by a third party.
A notable example of decomposition is hydrolysis. As for example the case of water, which decomposes and generates oxygen and hydrogen gas
2H₂O (l) → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)
In this case, the calium carbonate decomposes into CaO and CO₂
These two, are the products of the decomposition.
Of course, the unique reactant is the Calcium Carbonate
The balanced equation is:
CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
The correct formula for nickel (II) oxide is NiO.
Answer:
0.07 g/s.
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass lost = 9.85 g
Time taken = 2 min 30 s
Mean rate =?
Next, we shall convert 2 min 30 s to seconds (s). This can be obtained as follow:
1 min = 60 s
Thus,
2 min = 2 × 60 = 120 s
Therefore,
2 min 30 s = 120 s + 30 s = 150 s
Finally, we shall determine the mean rate of the reaction. This can be obtained as illustrated below:
Mass lost = 9.85 g
Time taken = 150 s
Mean rate =?
Mean rate = mass lost / time taken
Mean rate = 9.85 / 150
Mean rate = 0.07 g/s
Therefore, the mean rate of the reaction is 0.07 g/s
