Re: Charge on ligands? [ENDORSED]

Don't you find the oxidation of the metal then match it equally and with an opposite charge for the ligand?

It's better to do it this way... but does anybody know if it's a necessity to be correct?

Re: Formal Charge Meaning

Does that mean that formal charge and the dipole movement are related/similar concepts?

Re: Lewis acid vs. base

Also if you do a Lewis structure, and there are unbonded valence electrons on the central atom, it's a Lewis base

Re: Formal charge?

Would the equation:

valence electrons - non-bonding valence electrons - (bonding electrons/2)

also work?

Re: E=R(1/n-1/n)?

E=R(1/n2^2-1/n1^2) is the equation to specifically find the change in energy. The E= -hR/n^2 is for one specific energy level

Re: De Broglie Equation in Heisenberg Uncertainty Equation

I would assume it's possible because both involve the wave-like nature of light. I would think you could possibly include Schrodinger's in there as well with them.

Re: Q. G5

a) First, you convert the mmol to mol - keeping in mind since there's 2 Na in Na2CO3 the molarity will be doubled. Then you can divide the values in the formula: 0.002015/0.16 --> 0.013 L

Empirical Formula

Polyethylene is a hydrocarbon polymer used to produce food-storage bags and many other flexible plastic items. A combustion analysis of a 0.00126-g sample of polyethylene yields 0.00394-g of CO2 and 0.00161-g of H20. What is the empirical formula of polyethylene? I've balanced the equation but now I...

Re: H.5: Balancing Equations

So the best thing that I found, was to make a chart of the elements as I go Fe2P(s)+S(s)-->P4S10(s)+FeS(s) 2 - Fe - 1 1 - P - 4 1 - S - 11 The left has the number of elements in the reactant side and the right is the product side. As I balance one, I change it all the ones affected. For example, sta...

Re: Module 3: Limiting Reactant Calculations, Question 19

Jocelyn is right, you can't do anything with this problem without balancing the equation first to make sure to account for the Law of Conservation of Mass. The next step would be calculating the number of moles that are actually given from the mass in grams. Use this information to determine which i...
