Predict the charge on the monatomic ions formed from the following atoms in binary ionic compounds: (a) |(b) sr(c) k(d) n(e) s(f) in

(a) I⁻ (charge 1-)

(b) Sr²⁺ (charge 2+)

(c) K⁺ (charge 1+)

(d) N³⁻ (charge 3-)

(e) S²⁻ (charge 2-)

(f) In³⁺ (charge 3+)

Explanation:

To predict the charge on a monoatomic ion we need to consider the octet rule: atoms will gain, lose or share electrons to complete their valence shell with 8 electrons.

(a) |

I has 7 valence electrons so it gains 1 electron to form I⁻ (charge 1-).

(b) Sr

Sr has 2 valence electrons so it loses 2 electrons to form Sr²⁺ (charge 2+).

(c) K

K has 1 valence electron so it loses 1 electron to form K⁺ (charge 1+).

(d) N

N has 5 valence electrons so it gains 3 electrons to form N³⁻ (charge 3-).

(e) S

S has 6 valence electrons so it gains 2 electrons to form S²⁻ (charge 2-).

(f) In

In has 3 valence electrons so it loses 3 electrons to form In³⁺ (charge 3+).

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation
