Lose 1 electron

It will give it to an atom with more electrons. For example, Lithium (which has 1 valence electron) would give it to an atom that has more than 4 valence electrons

Consider the reaction PCl5(g) ⇌ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g). If 0.02 moles of PCl5, 0.04 moles of PCl3, and 0.08 moles of Cl2 are combined
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The reaction quotient (Q) before the reaction is 0.32

Explanation:

Being the reaction:

aA + bB ⇔ cC + dD

Q=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b}  }

where Q is the so-called reaction quotient and the concentrations expressed in it are not those of the equilibrium but those of the different reagents and products at a certain instant of the reaction.

The concentration will be calculated by:

Concentration=\frac{number of moles of solute}{Volume}

You know  the reaction:

PCl₅ (g) ⇌ PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g).

So:

Q=\frac{[PCl_{3} ] *[Cl_{2} ] }{[PCl_{5} ]}

The concentrations are:

  • [PCl₃]=\frac{0.04 moles}{0.5 L} =0.08 \frac{moles}{L}
  • [Cl₂]=\frac{0.08 moles}{0.5 L} =0.16 \frac{moles}{L}
  • [PCl₅]=\frac{0.02 moles}{0.5 L} =0.04 \frac{moles}{L}

Replacing:

Q=\frac{0.08*0.16}{0.04}

Solving:

Q= 0.32

Compound A melts at 801o C and is soluble
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Explanation:

Organic compounds are defined as the compounds which contain carbon as their main element. For example, CH_{3}OH is an organic compound.

Generally, organic compounds are non-polar in nature and due to the presence of covalent bonding organic compounds have low melting point.

As compound A melts at 801^{o}C and is soluble  in water. This means it is an ionic compound as it has high melting point and it is also polar in nature.

Whereas compound B melts at 24^{o}C and is insoluble  in water. This means that this compound has covalent bonding and it is also non-polar in nature . Hence, it is more likely to be organic in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that compound B is more likely to be an organic

compound.
