Concept introduction:
The compounds which are formed between two elements are known as binary compounds and if one element is metal and another is non-metal, then the binary compound are made up of ions, known as binary ionic compounds.
First, the name of the metal should be identified with the help of its symbol.
The name of the non-metal should be identified with the help of its symbol and it is modified to end in “−ide”.
Polyatomic ions are those ions in which two or more atoms are joined with each other by covalent bonds. These ions are common, especially among non-metals

Concept introduction:
The compounds which are formed between two elements are known as binary compounds and if one element is metal and another is non-metal, then the binary compound are made up of ions, known as binary ionic compounds.
If the binary compound is made up of two non-metals then the compound is known as molecular compound.
First, the name of the metal should be identified with the help of its symbol.
The name of the non-metal should be identified with the help of its symbol and it is modified to end in “−ide” and number of atoms is assigned by prefixes: mono =1, di = 2, tri =3 and so on.

- 4.104 When 2.750 g of the oxide Pb3O4 is heated to a high temperature, it decomposes to produce 0.0640 g of oxygen gas and 2.686 g of some new lead oxide compound. How can you use these data to determine the formula of the new compound?arrow_forwardThe present average concentration (mass percent) of magnesium ions in seawater is 0.13%. A chemistry textbook estimates that if 1.00 × 108 tons Mg were taken out of the sea each year, it would take one million years for the Mg concentration to drop to 0.12%. Do sufficient calculations to either verify or refute this statement. Assume that Earth is a sphere with a diameter of 8000 mi, 67% of which is covered by oceans to a depth of 1 mi, and that no Mg is washed back into the oceans at any time.arrow_forwardGiven that the density of argon is 1.78 g/L under standard conditions of temperature and pressure, how many argon atoms are present in a room with dimensions 4.0 m 5.0 m 2.4 m that is filled with pure argon under these conditions of temperature and pressure?arrow_forward
- Chlorine exists mainly as two isotopes, 37Cl and 33Cl. Which is more abundant? How do you know?arrow_forwardWhat is the mass of fish, in kilograms, that one would have to consume to obtain a fatal dose of mercury, if the fish contains 30 parts per million of mercury by weight? (Assume that all the mercury from the fish ends up as mercury (II) chloride in the body and that a fatal dose is 0.20 g of HgCl2.) How many pounds of fish is this?arrow_forwardYou take 1.00 g of an aspirin tablet (a compound consisting solely of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), burn it in air, and collect 2.20 g CO2 and 0.400 g H2O. You know that the molar mass of aspirin is between 170 and 190 g/mol. Reacting 1 mole of salicylic acid with I mole of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) gives you 1 mole of aspirin and 1 mole of acetic acid (C2H4O2). Use this information to determine the molecular formula of salicylic acid.arrow_forward
- The compound As2I4 is synthesized by reaction of arsenic metal with arsenic triiodide. If a solid cubic block of arsenic (d = 5.72 g/cm3) that is 3.00 cm on edge is allowed to react with 1.01 1024 molecules of arsenic triiodide, what mass of As2I4 can be prepared? If the percent yield of As2I4 was 75.6%, what mass of As2I4 was actually isolated?arrow_forward3.116 The simplest approximate chemical formula for the human body could be written as C728H4850O1970N104Ca24P16K4S4Na3Cl2Mg. Based on this formula, describe how you would rank by mass the ten most abundant elements in the human body.arrow_forwardNitrogen fixation in the root nodules of peas and other legumes occurs with a reaction involving a molybdenum-containing enzyme named nitrogenase. This enzyme contains two Mo atoms per molecule and is 0.0872% Mo by mass. Calculate the molar mass of the enzyme.arrow_forward
