The anion in sulphates is the SO42-.
Yes, sulfur is present in sulfates. Sulfates are chemical compounds that contain the sulfate ion, which is made up of sulfur and oxygen atoms.
The chemical formula for the sulfate ion is SO42-
Rule 4
There are two parts to this question:1) What is a sulfate? -- A sulfate is any molecule that has the ion SO42- in it. That ion is called "sulfate".2) What chemical properties are conferred on sulfates? -- There are no consistent properties across all sulfates, and many more relevant properties derive from the atom paired with the sulfate in an ionic compound. That being said, most sulfates will dissolve easily in water, especially sulfiric acid (H2SO4) which is a strong acid. However, the most commonly used sulfates, like gypsum and barium sulfate are not actually very soluable. Sulfates can often serve as ligands in certain instances.
The SO42- ion is named sulfate.
The formal charge of the SO42- ion is -2.
Sulfates contain the sulfate ion SO42- the sulf- comes from the fact that sulfur is the central atom in this ion and distinguishes it from other oxygen containing ions. the -ate part of the name shows that the sulfur in the ion is in its highest oxidation state.
The sulfates.
The formal charge of the sulfate ion (SO42-) is -2.
No. Sulfates get their name primarily from sulfur (S), not calcium.
Sulfates are naturally occurring substances found in food and water. Ingesting sulfates in moderate amounts is generally safe for most people. However, for some individuals with sensitivities or allergies, high levels of sulfates can cause digestive issues like diarrhea.
