The oxidation # (charge) of an element called "lindenium "Ld is + 1 and the oxidation # (charge) of an element called "mendezine symbol "Mz, is -2. What is the chemical formula for the compound called lindenium mendezide?

Ld₂Mz

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Compounds

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

"Lindenium" Ld w/ oxidation charge of +1

"Mendezine" Mz w/ oxidation charge of -2

Step 2: Write Compound

To balance out the charges to be neutral (0), we must counter balance the amount of Ld's with Mz's. We need 2 Ld's with 1 Mz to create a compound with a neutral charge:

2Ld¹⁺ + Mz²⁻

2(+1) + (-2) = (+2) + (-2) = 0 (neutral charge)

Therefore, our compound must be Ld₂Mz.

he uptake of drugs from the intestine is often strongly influenced by diffusion. for example, consider a water-insoluble steroid for treating inflammation that is solubilized in aggregates of detergent molecules, called micelles. these micelles, aggregates of 80 soap molecules, have a molecular weight of 24,000, a diameter of 2.6 nm, and a charge of -27. the positively charge ions (counterions) in this system are na".
