What is the total electric charge on molecules and compounds?
The total electric charge is always zero.
Explain why most carbon compounds are classified as organic compounds?
Organic compounds are compounds necessary to life, and most macromolecules necessary to life contain carbon.
In compounds does copper have a plus 2 charge CuSO3 CuOH CuS CuCl2 CuNO2 ( can be more than one)?
These compounds are CuSO3 CuS CuCl2..
What is an atom or molecule with electric charge?
In chemistry, particles with an overall electric charge are called ions.
What is the most likely charge that Zn will get?
Zn will most likely get a 2+ (positive) charge!
What is the overall chargefor compounds?
Generally, the overall charge for a compound is zero.
What is a compound that has a charge?
Some compounds have a charge. It depends on the charges of the components of the compound. For example, NO3- has a charge of -1 because the charge of its components are each O is 2- and the N is 5+,..
What is the charge of boron?
+3 is Boron's overall charge. Boron's ionic charge is +5.
Why do some compounds have no charge?
Strictly, all compounds have no charge. What would be a compound if neutral but actually has a charge should properly be called an ion. Some compounds, such as the diatomic molecules of the elements hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine, have perfectly symmetrical covalent bonds without even any polarity. Most covalent bonds between dissimilar atoms have some polarity, as do all ionicly bonded compounds, but this does not mean that the compounds themselves have net electrical charge.
Why ionic compounds are neutral even though thy are made up of charged particles?
Ionic compounds are neutral overall because the positive charge of the cations is balanced by the negative charge of the anions. In a solid ionic compound, the cations and anions are arranged in a lattice structure that balances out the charges. This results in an overall neutral charge for the compound.
What is the oxidation number for CN?
The oxidation number for CN is -1. This is because the oxidation number for nitrogen in most compounds is -3 and the overall charge of the CN ion is -1.
What is the electrical charge for boron?
Boron typically has a charge of +3 when it forms compounds, as it tends to lose three electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. In its elemental form, boron is neutral with no overall charge. However, in certain compounds, it can also exhibit a negative charge, particularly in complex anions.
What Is the overall charge on a molecules of water?
According to one physicist I know, most of the time the overall charge of a molecule of water is neutral.
What is the oxidation number for F2O?
The oxidation number for oxygen in most compounds is -2. Since there are two oxygen atoms in F2O, this gives a total charge of -4. Therefore, the oxidation number for each fluorine atom in F2O is +2 to balance out the overall charge to zero.
How do you find the charge on a chemical formula?
To find the charge on a chemical formula, first identify the oxidation states of the individual elements based on their typical charges in compounds. Sum these oxidation states to determine the overall charge of the compound. For ionic compounds, the total positive charge from cations should balance the total negative charge from anions, resulting in a neutral compound. If the compound is polyatomic, refer to the known charge of the polyatomic ion.
What ion is chlorine most likely to form in compounds?
Chlorine is most likely to form the chloride ion, which has a charge of -1.
What type of charge do compounds have-?
Compounds can have a neutral charge, a positive charge (cation), or a negative charge (anion), depending on the distribution of electrons within the atoms that make up the compound.
