Answer:

MnO > Ni₂O₃ > ZnO> Cu₂O > V₂O₃

Explanation:

To answer this question you must know the smallest ion with the highest charge will be the most acidic. For the oxides:

ZnO: Charge Zn⁺²; radium: 74pm

Ni₂O₃: Charge Ni⁺³; radium: 74pm

V₂O₃: Charge V⁺³; radium: 78pm

Cu₂O: Charge Cu⁺¹; radium: 77pm

MnO: Charge Mn⁺²; radium: 70pm

As the smallest ion is Mn⁺², MnO will be the most acidic, then Ni₂O₃ because is the samllest ion with ZnO but has a highest charge, then Cu₂O and V₂O₃

The order is:

MnO > Ni₂O₃ > ZnO> Cu₂O > V₂O₃

I hope it helps!

A 23.0g sample of a compound contains 12.0g of C, 3.0g of H, and 8.0g of O.What the empirical formula of the compound
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The empirical formula of compound is C₂H₆O.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of carbon = 12 g

Mass of hydrogen = 3 g

Mass of oxygen = 8 g

Empirical formula of compound = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the gram atom of each elements.

no of gram atom of carbon = 12 g / 12 g/mol = 1 g atoms

no of gram atom of hydrogen = 3 g / 1 g/mol = 3 g atoms

no of gram atom of oxygen = 8 g / 16 g/mol = 0.5 g atoms

Now we will calculate the atomic ratio by dividing the gram atoms with the 0.5 because it is the smallest number among these three.

          C:H:O  =     1/0.5  :   3/0.5  :   0.5/0.5

          C:H:O  =     2      :     6      :     1

The empirical formula of compound will be C₂H₆O

Identify the conjugate acid base pair <br> H3PO4(ag)+CO32=HCO3-(ag)+HPO42-(ag)
viktelen [127]

Answer:

H₃PO₄/H₂PO₄⁻ and HCO₃⁻/CO₃²⁻

Explanation:

An acid is a proton donor; a base is a proton acceptor.

Thus, H₃PO₄ is the acid, because it donates a proton to the carbonate ion.

CO₃²⁻ is the base, because it accepts a proton from the phosphoric acid.

The conjugate base is what's left after the acid has given up its proton.

The conjugate acid is what's formed when the base has accepted a proton.

H₃PO₄/H₂PO₄⁻ make one conjugate acid/base pair, and HCO₃⁻/CO₃²⁻ are the other conjugate acid/base pair.

H₃PO₄ + CO₃²⁻ ⇌ H₂PO₄⁻ + HCO₃⁻

Magnesium reacts with a certain element to form a compound with the general formula MgX. What would the most likely formula be f
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

K2X

Explanation:

Valency can be defined as the combining power of an element. It is the valency that dictates the value an element will have when writing a chemical formula for its compound.

MgX is a compound of magnesium and an element X. The valency of magnesium in most of its compound is +2. Now for the 2 to have been absent in the chemical formula, this shows that the element X itself have a valency if -2 for the valencies of both to have canceled out.

Now considering the element potassium, it is an alkaline metal belonging to group 1 of the periodic table. Hence, it is expected that it has a valency of +1

Forming a compound with element X means there would be an exchange of valencies between the two. We have established that x has a valency of -2. The formula of the compound thus formed by exchanging the valencies of both element would be K2X

Suppose that the microwave radiation has a wavelength of 12.4 cm . How many photons are required to heat 255 mL of coffee from 2
vivado [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

wavelength λ = 12.4 x 10⁻² m .

energy of one photon = h c / λ

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ /  12.4 x 10⁻²

= 1.6 x 10⁻²⁴ J .

Let density of coffee be equal to density of water .

mass of coffee = 255 x 1 = 255 g

heat required to heat up coffee = mass x specific heat x rise in temp

= 255 x 4.18 x ( 62-25 )

= 39438.3 J  .

No of photons required = heat energy required / energy of one photon

= 39438.3 / 1.6 x 10⁻²⁴

= 24649 x 10²⁴

= 24.65 x 10²⁷ .

What mass (g) of barium iodide is contained in 188 ml of a barium iodide solution that has an iodide ion concentration of 0.532m
Katarina [22]

Answer:

What mass (g) of barium iodide is contained in 188 mL of a barium iodide solution that has an iodide ion concentration of 0.532 M?

A) 19.6

B) 39.1

C) 19,600

D) 39,100

E) 276

The correct answer to the question is

B) 39.1  grams

Explanation:

To solve the question

The molarity ratio is given by

188 ml of 0.532 M solution of iodide.

Therefore we have number of moles = 0.188 × 0.532 M = 0.100016 Moles

To find the mass, we note that the Number of moles = \frac{Mass}{Molar Mass} from which we have

Mass = Number of moles × molar mass

Where the molar mass of Barium Iodide = 391.136 g/mol

= 0.100016 moles ×391.136 g/mol = 39.12 g
