Ca3(PO4)2 is the answer.

Minchanka [31]2 years ago

Answer : The formula for the compound is Ca_3(PO_4)_2

Explanation :

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced.

The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non-metals.

In the given question, the calcium metal forms an ionic compound with polyatomic anion (phosphate) PO_4^{3-}.

Here, calcium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as Ca^{2+} cation and phosphate PO_4^{3-} is an anion with oxidation state of -3. The charges are not balanced. So, the charges are balanced by the cris-cross method. Thus, the compound formed will be, Ca_3(PO_4)_2

Hence, the formula for the compound is Ca_3(PO_4)_2

During a lab experiment performed at STP conditions, you prepare HCl by reacting 100. ml of Cl2 gas with an excess of H2 gas.
Brrunno [24]

Answer: 19.4 mL Ba(OH)2

Explanation:

H2(g) + Cl2(g) --> 2HCl(aq) (make sure this equation is balanced first)

At STP, 1 mol gas = 22.4 L gas. Use this conversion factor to convert the 100. mL of Cl2 to moles.

0.100 L Cl2 • (1 mol / 22.4 L) = 0.00446 mol Cl2

Use the mole ratio of 2 mol HCl for every 1 mol Cl2 to find moles of HCl produced.

0.00446 mol Cl2 • (2 mol HCl / 1 mol Cl2) = 0.00892 mol HCl

HCl is a strong acid and Ba(OH)2 is a strong base so both will completely ionize to release H+ and OH- respectively. You need 0.00892 mol OH- to neutralize all of the HCl. Note that one mole of Ba(OH)2 contains 2 moles of OH-.

0.00892 mol OH- • (1 mol Ba(OH)2 / 2 mol OH-) • (1 L Ba(OH)2 / 0.230 M Ba(OH)2) = 0.0194 L = 19.4 mL Ba(OH)2

A gas occupies a volume of 72 ml at 400 k and 800 torr. if the temperature drops to 200 k and the pressure changes to 400 torr,
satela [25.4K]
We are tasked to solve for the volume of the gas that occupies when pressure and temperature changes to 400 Torr and 200 Kelvin from Torr and 400 Kelvin. We can use ideal gas law assuming constant gas composition and close system. The solution is shown below:
P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 / T2
V2 = P1V1T2 / T1P2
V2 = 800*72*200 / 400*400
V2 = 72 ml

The answer for the volume is 72 ml.

What is the best description of what has happened to flowers when they change color as they mature?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The answer is (A)

Explanation:

When the weather changes, nature also changes because most plants rely on photosynthesis and if they don't get as much light then they can't support as much as they used causing them to shut down parts of the plant.

Calcium-45 has a half-life of 162.7 days. If four half-lives have elapsed, how much time has passed?
vovikov84 [41]
Half-life<span> is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half its initial value. </span><span>If four half-lives have elapsed for calcium-45, then it would be 4x162.7 = 650.8 days have passed. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.</span>

Magnesium burns in air with a dazzling brilliance to produce magnesium oxide: 2Mg (s) + O2 (g) →→ 2MgO (s) When 4.50 g of magnes
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

7.46 g

Explanation:

From the balanced equation, 2 moles of Mg is required for 2 moles of MgO.

The mole ratio is 1:1

mole = mass/molar mass

mole of 4.50 g Mg = 4.50/24.3 = 0.185 mole

0.185 mole Mg will tiled 0.185 MgO

Hence, theoretical yield of MgO in g

mass = mole x molar mass

            0.185 x 40.3 = 7.46 g
