Chapter 4, Problem 4.59EP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To complete the following table of chemical formulas for ionic compounds.  For each compound, the positive ion present is listed on the left side of the table and the negative ion present is listed at the top.

  F-O2-N3-C4-Ca2+

Concept Introduction:

Ions are formed by the loss or gain of electrons.  The formation of ion requires the presence of two elements, these two elements are: one is metal atom and another one is non-metal atom. Metal atom loses electron and non-metal atom accepts electron.

The ratio in which positive and negative ions combine is the ratio which achieves charge neutrality for the resulting compound.

There three rules to remember while writing the chemical formulas.  They are as follows:

  • First write the symbol for positive ion.
  • The charges of the ions are not shown in the formula.
  • The numbers in the formula give the combining ratio for the ions.

Answer to Problem 4.59EP

The chemical formulas of a compound when combines with given ions are as follows:

  F-O2-N3-C4-Ca2+CaF2CaOCa3N2Ca2C

Explanation of Solution

Ca2+ ion combines with  F- ions combine in 1 to 2 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  One Ca2+ ion give two units of positive charges.  One F- ion results in one unit of negative charge.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is CaF2.

Ca2+ ion combines with O2- ions combine in 1 to 1 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  One Ca2+ ion give one unit of positive charge.  One O2- ion results in one unit of negative charge.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is CaO.

Ca2+ ion combines with N3- ions combine in 3 to 2 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  Three Ca2+ ion give three units of positive charges.  Two N3- ion results in two units of negative charges.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is Ca3N2.

Ca2+ ion combines with  C4- ions combine in 2 to 1 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  Two Ca2+ ions give three units of positive charges.  One C4- ion results in one unit of negative charge.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is Ca2C.

Answer to Problem 4.59EP

The chemical formulas of a compound when combines given ions are as follows:

  F-O2-N3-C4-Al3+AlF3Al2O3AlNAl4C3

Explanation of Solution

Al3+ ion combines with  F- ions combine in 1 to 3 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  One Al3+ ion give three units of positive charges.  Three F- ions result in three units of negative charges.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is AlF3.

Al3+ ion combines with O2- ions combine in 2 to 3 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  Two Al3+ ions give six units of positive charges.  Three O2- ions result in six units of negative charges.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is Al2O3.

Al3+ ion combines with  N3- ions combine in 1 to 1 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  One Al3+ ion give three units of positive charges.  One N3- ion results in three units of negative charges.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is AlN.

Al3+ ion combines with  C4- ions combine in 4 to 3 ratio because this combination causes the resultant charges to zero.  Four Al3+ ions give twelve units of positive charges.  Three C4- ion result in twelve units of negative charges.  Thus, the chemical formula for the compound is Al4C3.
