Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. An ion is an atom or molecule with a positive or negative charge. Both atoms and ions are composed of electrons that are exchangeable. So in some way they are similar

Solid potassium chloride is obtained by the reaction of solid potassium and chlorine gas.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

2 K(s) + Cl₂ (g) --> 2 KCl(s)

Explanation:

Potassium will just be K

Chlorine gas is part of BrIClHOF, which are diatomic gasses. So Cl₂

Looking at the periodic table potassium K has an ion charge of +1 and chlorine Cl has an ion charge of -1, so in a balanced compound they will be written as KCl

Balancing the amounts of each will lead to 2 K(s) + Cl₂ (g) --> 2 KCl(s)

Why is it important to control all of the variables except one in an experiment?

Ad libitum [116K]

Any given experiment has numerous control variables, and it's important for a scientist to try to hold all variables constant except for the independent variable. If a control variable changes during an experiment, it may invalidate the correlation between the dependent and independent variables.

It’s copied and pasted from google so make sure to put it in your words :)
