Write the formula of aluminium chloride ,Sodium oxide,hydrocloric acid, Calcium carbonate?
Answers
Answer:
aluminum chloride = AlCl3
sodium oxygen = Na2O
calcium carbonate = CaCo3
Aluminium Chloride
Aluminium has 13 electrons and has 3 valence electrons (2+8+3=13)
Aluminium has valency of +3
Similarly Chlorine has valency of -1 (Valence electrons = 7)
Al Cl
+3 -1
Thus the compound formed will have formula of
or simply
Sodium Oxide
Sodium has valency of +1
and oxygen has valency of -2
Na O
+1 -2
Thus the compound formed will have formula of
Hydrochloric Acid
Hydrogen has valency of +1
( -1 as well w.r.t electronegativity, Higher standard concepts
Here chlorine is more electronegative so valency of Hydrogen is +1)
Chlorine has valency of -1
H Cl
+1 -1
Thus the compound formed will have formula of
HCl
Calcium Carbonate
Calcium has valency of +2
and Carbonate has valency of -2
Ca CO3
+2 -2
Thus the compound formed will have formula of
