Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The chemical formulas of calcium nitrate, barium chloride and ammonium phosphate has to be written. Also, the names and charges of all the ions in the given three compounds has to be given.
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. Ions consisting of only a single atom known as monoatomic ions and more than two atoms form polyatomic ions.

- The oxyacids containing oxygen (O) and phosphorous (P) are named differently than the oxyanions on which they are based. You have just learned that in general -ite endings are changed to -ous while -ate endings are changed to -ic when naming the acid. However, for the acids of oxyanions based on phosphorus, the root also changes. The roots for the oxyanions and oxyacids of phosphorus are shown below. oxyanion root: phosph oxyacid root: phosphor Although the exception exists for the root, the prefixes and suffixes of these oxyacids still follow the conventions for naming oxyacids. Using the table of oxyanions given in the transition before Part B and the roots shown above, give the name of the oxyacid H3PO4 below. Spell out the full name of the acid.arrow_forwardMatter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Thus, the mass of the products of a chemical reaction must be equal to the mass of the starting materials. Formally, this concept is called the law of conservation of mass. When carbon is burned in air, it reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. When 16.8 g g of carbon were burned in the presence of 59.1 g of oxygen, 14.3 g of oxygen remained unreacted. What mass of carbon dioxide was produced?arrow_forwardGive the chemical symbol, including superscript indicating mass number, for (a) the ion with 22 protons, 26 neutrons,and 19 electrons; and (b) the ion of sulfur that has 16 neutrons and 18 electrons.arrow_forward
