Chapter 3: Problem 59

Assign suitable names to the compounds (a) \(\mathrm{CS}_{2}\) (b) \(\operatorname{SiF}_{4} ;\) (c) \(\operatorname{ClF}_{5} ;\) (d) \(\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{5} ;\) (e) \(\mathrm{SF}_{6} ;\) (f) \(\mathrm{I}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{6}\).

Short Answer

Expert verified
The names of the compounds are: (a) Carbon disulfide, (b) Silicon tetrafluoride, (c) Chlorine pentafluoride, (d) Dinitrogen pentoxide, (e) Sulfur hexafluoride, (f) Diiodine hexachloride.

Step by step solution

01

Identify the chemical compound \(\mathrm{CS}_{2}\)

C is Carbon and S is Sulfur, and there are two atoms of sulfur. Therefore, the compound \(\mathrm{CS}_{2}\) is Carbon disulfide.
02

Identify the chemical compound \(\operatorname{SiF}_{4}\)

Si is Silicon and F is Fluorine, and there are four atoms of fluorine. Therefore, the compound \(\operatorname{SiF}_{4}\) is Silicon tetrafluoride.
03

Identify the chemical compound \(\operatorname{ClF}_{5}\)

Cl is Chlorine and F is Fluorine, and there are five atoms of fluorine. Therefore, the compound \(\operatorname{ClF}_{5}\) is Chlorine pentafluoride.
04

Identify the chemical compound \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\mathrm{O}_{5}\)

N is Nitrogen and O is Oxygen. There are two atoms of nitrogen and five atoms of oxygen. Therefore, the compound \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\mathrm{O}_{5}\) is Dinitrogen pentoxide.
05

Identify the chemical compound \(\mathrm{SF}_{6}\)

S is Sulfur and F is Fluorine, and there are six atoms of fluorine. Therefore, the compound \(\mathrm{SF}_{6}\) is Sulfur hexafluoride.
06

Identify the chemical compound \(\mathrm{I}_{2}\mathrm{Cl}_{6}\)

I is Iodine, Cl is Chlorine. There are two atoms of iodine and six atoms of chlorine. Therefore, the compound \(\mathrm{I}_{2}\mathrm{Cl}_{6}\) is Diiodine hexachloride.

The important natural sources of boron compounds are the minerals kernite, \(\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{B}_{4} \mathrm{O}_{7} \cdot 4 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\) and borax, \(\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{B}_{4} \mathrm{O}_{7} \cdot 10 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} .\) How much additional mass of mineral must be processed per kilogram of boron obtained if the mineral is borax rather than kernite?

Liquid ethyl mercaptan, \(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6} \mathrm{S},\) has a density of \(0.84 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL} .\) Assuming that the combustion of this compound produces only \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}, \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O},\) and \(\mathrm{SO}_{2},\) what masses of each of these three products would be produced in the combustion of \(3.15 \mathrm{mL}\) of ethyl mercaptan?
