Fe3N2, also known as Iron (II) nitride, is an ionic compound.
Ionic compounds are compounds that consists of metals and non-metals bonded with ionic bonds. The metal ion gives up electron(s) to the non-metals.
Since iron is a metal and nitrogen is an non-metal, the bond they would form would be an ionic bond. Iron gives up 2 electrons to form iron(II) ion, while nitrogen gains 3 electrons to form nitride ion. Since one iron cannot let a nitrogen gain 3 electrons, so in the compound, there would be 3 iron (ii) ions that has given up 6 electrons in total while 2 nitride ions have gained 6 electrons in total.
No. When water first begins to cool down, it contracts. However, as it gets colder and eventually freezes, it begins to expand.
You can test this by freezing water in a water bottle: when you take it out of the freezer, the cap might have popped off or cracks may have formed in the sides of the bottle.
Answer: Water expands when frozen, not contracts.
The scientist thought that the
atom was the smallest particle in the universe is John Dalton. He established
the atomic theory which consists of five; elements are made of extremely small
particles called atoms, atoms of different element have different sizes, mass
and physic – chemical properties, atoms cannot be divided further, destroyed or
created, atoms can combine to form compounds and in chemical reaction, atoms
can be combined, separated or rearranged.
40.0 g ( 1 mole ) --------------- 6.02x10²³ molecules
? ? --------------------------- 2.90x10²² molecules
mass = 2.90x10²² * 40.0 / 6.02x10²³
mass = 1.16x10²⁴ / 6.02x10²³
mass = 1.9269 g
hope this helps!
