Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The ions and the number of each are present in
Concept Introduction:
An atom or a molecule having a net electrical charge is known as atom. Charge of the electron is negative and charge of the proton is positive. Both electron and proton have the same magnitude. Positively charged ion is called cation and negatively charged ion is called anion. Because of the opposite charge of cation and anion they will readily form ionic compounds. Iona consisting of only a single atom known as monoatomic ions and more than two atoms form polyatomic ions.

- If you heat Al with an element from Group 6A, an ionic compound is formed that contains 18.55% Al by mass. (a) What is the likely charge on the nonmetal in the compound formed? (b) Using X to represent the nonmetal, what is the empirical formula for this ionic compound? (c) Which element in Group 6A has been combined with Al?arrow_forwardDetermine the simplest formulas of the following compounds: (a) tetraethyl lead, the banned gasoline anti-knock additive, which is composed of 29.71% C, 6.234% H, and 64.07% Pb (b) citric acid, present in most sour fruit, which is com- posed of 37.51% C, 4.20% H, and 58.29% O (c) cisplatin, a drug used in chemotherapy, which is composed of 9.34% N, 2.02% H, 23.36% Cl, and 65.50% Ptarrow_forward
