AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on naming specific ions: CN-, O2-, and OH-. The common names for these ions are identified as Cyanide for CN-, Oxide for O2-, and Hydroxide for OH-. Participants clarify that the question simply asks for the standard nomenclature of these ions. A reference to Wikipedia's "Common ions" page is mentioned as a helpful resource for naming. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding ion names in chemistry.

The Attempt at a Solution


What exactly is this asking? How do I find this?
 
Physics news on Phys.org


So it would be:
CN- is Cyanide
O2- is Oxide
OH- is Hydroxide?

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
