Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Which of the five memorized -ic acids serve as models for family relationships in the nomenclature of acids, and which stand alone is to be stated. For those that serve as models, the non-hydrogen, non-oxygen element or elements follow(s) the model of each model acid is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Widely, the number of each kind of atom which makes up the particle is called as the composition and it is denoted by the chemical formula. Besides, at normal temperature seven elements are found as two atoms. Physical observation tells us the acid is a substance having sour taste. Chemically, acid is a substance which is having a proton (H+ ion) and it can be detached by a water molecule when the acid meets water.

- Classify the following compounds as electrolytes or nonelectrolytes. (a) potassium chloride, KCL (b) hydrogen peroxide, H2O2 (c) methane, CH4 (d) barium nitrate, Ba(NO3)2arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true about an individual atom? Explain. a. An individual atom should be considered to be a solid. b.An individual atom should be considered to be a liquid. c. An individual atom should be considered to be a gas. d. The state of the atom depends on which element it is. e. An individual atom cannot be considered to be a solid, liquid, or gas. Justify your choice, and for choices you did not pick, explain what is wrong with them.arrow_forwardThe “Chemistry in Focus” segment Sugar of Lead discusses Pb(C2H3O2)2 , which originally was known as sugar of lead. Why was it called sugar of lead? What is the systematic name for Pb(C2H3O2)2? Why is it necessary to have a system for the naming of chemical compounds?arrow_forward
- I need the answer as soon as possiblearrow_forwardPlease helparrow_forwardSome of the names below are incorrect. Beside each name, write an “X” for an incorrect name and a “✔” for a correct name. For each incorrect name, explain what is wrong and why it is incorrect. I attatched the chart as well as my answers. I was unsure if the ending of the polyatomic names were changed to "ide" or not. I have also found that some periodic tables have more charges on elements than others, so I wasn't sure if Chlorine was a multivalent metal or not, as different periodic tables said different things. Thanks.arrow_forward
- Define the following terms: acids, bases, oxoacids,oxoanions, and hydrates.arrow_forwardings ools Molecular compounds are usually composed solely of nonmetals. A binary molecular compound is one in which the compound contains only two elements (regardless of how many atoms are present of each). When naming binary molecular compounds, prefixes are used to specify the number of atoms of each element. Take a moment to review some of the prefixes shown here. Prefix Number mono di nona one three tetra four penta five hexa six hepta seven octa eight nine deca two ten For example, SF6 is named sulfur hexafluoride. Note that the prefix mono is not used in naming the first element. Also note that the second element in the name should end with the suffix ide. ▼ Part A Using the rules for naming molecular compounds described in the introduction, what is the name for the compound PC15? Spell out the full name of the compound. ►View Available Hint(s) Submit Part B Using the rules for naming molecular compounds described in the introduction, what is the name for the compound N₂ CL?…arrow_forwardWater and sodium chloride are both considered substances as well as compounds, but water exists as molecules while sodium chloride does not. (i) Explain this difference in the behavior of water and sodium chloride. As part of your explanation, (ii) define the terms substance, molecule, and compound.arrow_forward
- Give the chemical formula of the acid. Your answer will be marked incorrect if you did not spelled the compound's name correctly. Please remember to include (aq) to your answer. Nitric acid Sulfuric acidarrow_forwardWrite formulas for these acids: (a) acetic acid (d) boric acid (b) hydrofluoric acid (e) nitrous acid (c) hydrosulfuric acid (f) hypochlorous acidarrow_forwardIn order to correctly name a compound, you must first be able to classify the type of compound. Identify the following compounds as one of the following within the list of 4 types. The abbreviations are shown in the parenthesis. Notice this on this assignment, binary and polyatomic binary are catagorized as a single category. lonic (1), molecular (M), binary acid (BA), oxyacid (OA) 1. CBr3 M 2. KCI 1 3. HCI [Select] 4.
