Metallic sodium and chlorine gas are produced by the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride.

<h3>What is a word equation?</h3>

A word equation represents a chemical reaction using the names of the substances involved.

a) Word equation:

Sodium chloride + electrolysis →  Sodium hydroxide + Hydrogen gas, Chlorine gas

b) The following reactions take place during the electrolysis of brine solution :

NaCl =Na^+ +Cl^-

H_2O =H^+ +OH^-

Now there are two cations and two anions which get discharged in the following way :

At cathode : 2H^+ +2e^- = H_2

At anode: 2Cl^- - 2e-=Cl_2

The remaining ions

Na^+ +OH- = NaOH

That's why we get H_2, Cl_2 and NaOH.

c) Balance each equation is:

2NaCl (l)  →   2Na(s) + Cl_2(g)

What is the frequency of a wave with a wavelength of 6.40 x 104 meters?? 
Zina [86]

Answer:- 4.69*10^3Hz

Solution:- Wavelength is given and we are asked to calculate the frequency. The equation that correlates frequency with wavelength is:

\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }

where, \nu is the symbol for frequency, c is the symbol for speed of light and \lambda is the symbol for wavelength.

Speed of light is 3.0*10^8\frac{m}{s} and the wavelength is given as 6.40*10^4m .

Let's plug in the values in the equation and so the calculations to calculate the frequency:

\nu =\frac{3.0*10^8(\frac{m}{s})}{6.40*10^4m}

\nu =4.69*10^3Hz

(since, \frac{1}{s}=Hz )

So, the frequency of the wave is 4.69*10^3Hz .

Draw the structures of the following compounds from their names: Pentane 3-methyl-hexane 2,4-dimethylpentane
Monica [59]

I am assuming that the compounds given are Pentane, 3-methyl-hexane, and 2, 4-dimethylpentane considering that the compounds were not separated by a comma.

_______________________________________________________

Pentane is in the form of a straight chain alkane. This is important as there are many isomers of Pentane, taking different shapes. By it's name it consists of 5 carbon atoms, and the number of hydrogen atoms should be 12, as the compound is nonpolar.

3-methylhexane is an alkane present in a hexane structure at position 3. There are thus 3 molecules at 3 ends of a hexane structure - H3C, CH3, and CH3

2,4-dimethylpentane is an alkane with respect to the formula [(H3C)2CH]2CH2.

With that information, refer to the three attachments below, for each compound given. They are in order -

On a mission to a newly discovered planet, an astronaut finds gallium abundances of 61.29% for 69Ga and 39.71% for 71Ga. What is
Verizon [17]
(exact weight of isotope #1) (abundance of isotope #1) + (exact weight of isotope #2) (abundance of isotope #2) = average atomic weight of the element(68.72*61.29) + (39.71*70.92) = 4211.84 + 2816.237028.07/100= 70.28 

70.28 is the atomic mass of Gallium for the location
