What element is in all sulfides and sulfates?
Sulfur is the element present in all sulfides and sulfates.
What element does sulfates and sulfides contain?
Sulfur.
Does the sulfates get their name from ca?
No. Sulfates get their name primarily from sulfur (S), not calcium.
Is cooper sulphate an element compound or mixture?
Copper sulfates are chemical compounds.
What element from the periodic table that is in an ordinary fertilizer?
Phosphorous! That's why there are no more sulfates in fertilizers because of environmental problems.
What kind of mineral is sufur?
Sulfur is a non-metallic element that can be found in both mineral and elemental forms. It is commonly found in mineral ores such as sulfides and sulfates.
From what elements do the sulfates the their names?
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.
What does the word 'sulfate' suggest about a chemical with that in its name?
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.
Compare and contrast sulfates and sulfides?
No, Sulphur is a gaseous element, commonly found as S8. Sulphate is a polyatomic ion (compound containing multiple elements with a charge on it) containing sulphur and oxygen, written as SO4-2
Is sulfur in sulfates?
Yes, sulfur is present in sulfates. Sulfates are chemical compounds that contain the sulfate ion, which is made up of sulfur and oxygen atoms.
What minerals make sulfur?
Sulfur is a chemical element and not composed of minerals. It is a naturally occurring element that can be found as a pure element or in compounds such as sulfides and sulfates in minerals like pyrite and gypsum.
Which group of rock minerals contains the mineral gypsum?
The sulfates.
