2. The following data was collected. If it is known that experiment 1
has the formula XY what is the formula of experiment 2.
Set up a ratio of X/Y for each experiment – expt 1 => 2.55gX/12.75g Y
= 0.2 where as expt 2 => 1.7 g X/4.25 gY = 0.4 Since expt 2 has a
ratio that is twice as much of X then the formula is X2Y
Ch 1 - Answer Key
3. (Ch 2 – problem 77) Two elements R and Q, combine to form two
binary compounds. In the first compound, 14.0 g of R
combines with 3.00 g of Q. In the second compound, 7.00 g of
R combines with 4.5 g of Q. Show that these data are in accord
with the law of multiple proportions. If the formula of the
second compound is RQ, what is the formula of the first?
Set up a ratio of R/Q for each experiment – for expt 1 => 14gR/3gQ =
4.67 and for expt 2 => 7gR/4.5gQ = 1.55 since experiment 1 has 3
times more R the formula is R3Q
Ch 2 - Answer Key
4. a. Atomic number => # protons in an atom
b. Mass number => # protons and # neutrons
c. Charge => # protons – # electrons

number of protons however they differ by the number of neutrons
or mass number

7. What are ions? How are ions generated? Ions are charged atoms
(monoatomic) or charged groups of atoms (polyatomic) – ions are
generated due the gain or loss of electrons producing anions
(negative) and cations (positive)
8. Metals tend to gain or lose electrons?
What charge do group 1 metals form? 1+
What charge do group 2 metals form? 2+
What charge do group 3 metals form? 3+

10. How could you distinguish between ionic compounds, covalent
compounds and acids?
Ionic compounds => cation (typically metal or NH4) and anion (typically
nonmetal)
Covalent compounds => only nonmetals
Acids => covalent compounds that begin with hydrogen (exception =>
although water is technically an acid it will never be named as such)

14. An element’s most stable ion forms an ionic compound with
chlorine having the formula XCl2. If the mass number of the
ion is 24 and it has 10 electrons, what is the element and how
many neutrons does it have? Since Cl has a charge of 1- that
tells you that X has a charge of 2+ and if X has 10 electrons
there must be 12 protons therefore X is Mg – if the mass
number is 24 and there’s 12 protons then there are 12 neutrons
