Chapter 2: Problem 61

Give the chemical formula for (a) chlorite ion, (b) chloride ion, (c) chlorate ion, (d) perchlorate ion, (e) hypochlorite ion.

Short Answer

Expert verified
(a) ClO鈧傗伝, (b) Cl鈦�, (c) ClO鈧冣伝, (d) ClO鈧勨伝, (e) ClO鈦�

Step by step solution

01

(a) Chlorite Ion

To write the chemical formula for the chlorite ion, first recognize that it is an oxyanion of chlorine. The suffix "-ite" tells us that it has a lower oxidation state than the "-ate" ion. In this case, the chlorite ion has a -1 charge while the chlorate has a -1 charge as well. The oxidation number of chlorine in the chlorite ion is +3. The chemical formula of the chlorite ion is: ClO鈧傗伝.
02

(b) Chloride Ion

The chloride ion is simply a chlorine atom that has gained one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. As a result, it carries a -1 charge. The chemical formula for the chloride ion is: Cl鈦�.
03

(c) Chlorate Ion

The chlorate ion is an oxyanion of chlorine with the ending "-ate," indicating a higher oxidation state than the chlorite ion. The oxidation number of chlorine in the chlorate ion is +5. The chemical formula for the chlorate ion is: ClO鈧冣伝.
04

(d) Perchlorate Ion

The perchlorate ion is also an oxyanion of chlorine, but the prefix "per-" indicates it has the highest oxidation state among oxyanions of the same element. The oxidation number of chlorine in the perchlorate ion is +7. The chemical formula for the perchlorate ion is: ClO鈧勨伝.
05

(e) Hypochlorite Ion

The hypochlorite ion is another oxyanion of chlorine. The prefix "hypo-" indicates it has the lowest oxidation state among oxyanions of the same element. The oxidation number of chlorine in the hypochlorite ion is +1. The chemical formula for the hypochlorite ion is: ClO鈦�.

How many hydrogen atoms are in each of the following: (a) \(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}\), (b) \(\mathrm{Ca}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COO}\right)_{2}\) (c) \(\left(\mathrm{NH}_{4}\right)_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4} ?\)

The first atoms of seaborgium (Sg) were identified in 1974 . The longest-lived isotope of \(S g\) has a mass number of 266. (a) How many protons, electrons, and neutrons are in an \({ }^{266} \mathrm{Sg}\) atom? (b) Atoms of \(\mathrm{Sg}\) are very unstable, and it is therefore difficult to study this element's properties. Based on the position of \(S g\) in the periodic table, what element should it most closely resemble in its chemical properties?

In a series of experiments, a chemist prepared three different compounds that contain only iodine and fluorine and determined the mass of each element in each compound: \(\begin{array}{ccc} \text { Compound } & \text { Mass of Iodine (g) } & \text { Mass of Fluorine (g) } \\ \hline 1 & 4.75 & 3.56 \\ 2 & 7.64 & 3.43 \\ 3 & 9.41 & 9.86 \end{array}\) (a) Calculate the mass of fluorine per gram of iodine in each compound. (b) How do the numbers in part (a) support the atomic theory?

Predict whether each of the following compounds is molecular or ionic: (a) \(\mathrm{B}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6}\), (b) \(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}\), (c) \(\mathrm{LiNO}_{3}\) (d) \(\mathrm{Sc}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3},(\mathrm{e}) \mathrm{CsBr}\), (f) \(\mathrm{NOCl}\), \((\mathrm{g}) \mathrm{NF}_{3}\), (h) \(\mathrm{Ag}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\).

Assume that you encounter the following sentences in your reading. What is the chemical formula for each substance mentioned? (a) Sodium hydrogen carbonate is used as a deodorant. (b) Calcium hypochlorite is used in some bleaching solutions. (c) Hydrogen cyanide is a very poisonous gas. (d) Magnesium hydroxide is used as a cathartic. (e) Tin(II) fluoride has been used as a fluoride additive in toothpastes. (f) When cadmium sulfide is treated with sulfuric acid, fumes of hydrogen sulfide are given off.
