The product of a reaction between these two elements is
.
Explanation:
The oxidation state of an ion in a compound is equal to its charge.
The aluminum having a charge of +3 because oxidation state is +3
The oxide is having charge of -2
The product of these reactants will produce a chemical compound.
The compound formed is
i.e Aluminium oxide. The compound while getting formed will share the charge and cation A+ will have the charge of anion and anion will have the charge of cation. This will result in a compound as there should be a neutral charge on the compound formed.
The <em>+</em><em>3 charge of the cation Al+ will go to anion oxide O2- and the charge of anion -2 will go with cation Al+. </em>

It begins by trying to solve a problem and or making a hypothesis.
Answer:
1.75M
Explanation:
The problem deals with finding the molarity of the given compound.
The compound is:
Na₂SO₄.10H₂O
Mass of the compound = 10.5kg = 10500g
Volume of the compound = 18.6L
Molarity is the number of moles of solute in a solution;
Molarity =
Number of moles =
Molar mass of Na₂SO₄.10H₂O = 2(23) + 32 + 4(16) + 10[2(1) + 16]
= 322g/mol
Now;
Number of moles =
= 32.6mole
So;
Molarity =
= 1.75M
Because 25% is half of 0.5 and the half life of
is given as 5,715, the time it takes to reach this amount should just be double the half life: 11430 years.
However, in other cases the problem may not have easy numbers, so below is a more mathematical approach.
The half life formula is
.
Solving for t gives:

Given information:

Plug in given values and solve for t.

With correct significant figures, this would be 11000 years.
