If there is only one type of cation that can be formed from an element, what do we do with its name?

Magnesium, Mgstart text, M, g, end text, is a group 2 element that will form 2+ cations. Because it usually forms cations of only one type, we don't need to specify its charge. We can simply refer to the cation in the ionic compound as magnesium. ... Therefore, the name for the compound is magnesium phosphide.

Explanation:

(this may or not be correct)

-also i finished that drawing you wanted :p-

there are two significant figures.

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
