Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the given nonmetal ion is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The species that are formed by losing or gaining the electrons are known as ions. The cations are formed by losing one or more than one electron from the outer most shell of an atom. Anions are formed by gaining one or more than one electron to the outer most shell of an atom.
The naming of non-metal ions is done by the addition of suffix –ide at the end of the element’s name.

- Is it possible for the same Iwo elements to form more than one compound? Is this consistent with Dalton’s atomic theory? Give an example.arrow_forwardThe formulas MgO and CO look very similar. What is the name for each compound? Why do we name them differently?arrow_forwardWrite the formula for each of the following compounds: a. chromium(VI) oxide b. disulfur dichloride c. nickel(II) fluoride d. potassium hydrogen phosphate e. aluminum nitride f. ammonia g. manganese(IV) sulfide h. sodium dichromate i. ammonium sulfite j. carbon tetraiodidearrow_forward
- Write the formula for each of the following compounds: a. ammonium hydrogen phosphate b. mercury(I) sulfide c. silicon dioxide d. sodium sulfite e. aluminum hydrogen sulfate f. nitrogen trichloride g. hydrobromic acid h. bromous acid i. perbromic acid j. potassium hydrogen sulfide k. calcium iodide l. cesium perchloratearrow_forwardThese questions concern the work of J. J. Thomson: From Thomson’s work, which particles do you think he would feel are most important in the formation of compounds (chemical changes) and why? Of the remaining two subatomic particles, which do you place second in importance for forming compounds and why? Come up with three models that explain Thomson’s findings and evaluate them. To be complete you should include Thomson’s findings.arrow_forwardZinc phosphate is used as a dental cement. A 50.00-mg sample is broken down into its constituent elements and gives 16.58 mg oxygen, 8.02 mg phosphorus, and 25.40 mg zinc. Determine the empirical formula of zinc phosphate.arrow_forward
