Answer:

F

Explanation:

When an atom lose or gain electrons ions are formed.

There are two types of ions. Cation and anion.

Cation:

Cations are formed when atom lose electrons. For example:

X → X⁺ + e⁻

Anion:

It is formed when an atom gain electrons. For example:

X + e⁻  → X⁻

Fluorine is present in group seventeen. It has seven valance electrons. It gain one electron to complete the octet and form anion with charge of -1.

Calcium is alkaline earth metal. It is present in group two it loses two valance electrons and form cation with charge of +2.

Neon is noble gas. It already have complete octet. It can not form ions. To remove the electrons from noble gases very high temperature is required.

Zinc is present in group 12. It usually form cation by losing its two valance electrons but it can also show oxidation state -2.

A substance is 89.2% carbon by mass. how much of the substance would be needed to recover 34.6 mol of pure carbon?
kari74 [83]
1 mole of carbon contains 12 g
Thus, 34.6 moles will contain; 34.6 × 12 = 415.2 g
If a substance contains 89.2 % carbon, 
then, (415.2/89.2) ×100 =  465.47 g of the substance will be required to yield 34.6 moles of carbon.

What volume of a 0.716 m kbr solution is needed to provide 30.5 g of kbr?
Jlenok [28]
Answer is: volume of KBr is 357 mL.
c(KBr) = 0,716 M = 0,716 mol/L.
m(KBr) = 30,5 g.
n(KBr) = m(KBr) ÷ M(KBr).
n(KBr) = 30,5 g ÷ 119 g/mol.
n(KBr) = 0,256 mol.
V(KBr) = n(KBr) ÷ c(KBr).
V(KBr) = 0,256 mol ÷ 0,716 mol/L.
V(KBr) = 0,357 L · 1000 mL/L = 357 mL.

Ronch [10]

Answer:

The coefficient of O2 is 11

Explanation:

Step 1:

The equation for the reaction:

FeS2 + O2 → SO2 + Fe2O3

Step 2:

Balancing the equation. The equation can be balance as follow:

FeS2 + O2 → SO2 + Fe2O3

There are 2 atoms of Fe on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of FeS2 as shown below:

2FeS2 + O2 → SO2 + Fe2O3

There are 4 atoms of S on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of SO2 as shown below:

2FeS2 + O2 → 4SO2 + Fe2O3

Now, there are a total of 11 atoms of O on the right side and 2 atoms on the left side. It can be balance by putting 11/2 in front of O2 as shown below:

2FeS2 + 11/2O2 → 4SO2 + Fe2O3

Multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction as shown below:

4FeS2 + 11O2 → 8SO2 + 2Fe2O3

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficient of O2 is 11
